Semantic UI dropdown selected text and value seems odd

Is it normal behavior that Semantic UI dropdown 'get text' and 'get value' returns two duplicate texts and values (comma delimited)? Here you can see what I'm talking about:

http://codepen.io/anon/pen/pybmPw

$('#ddl').dropdown();

function getSelectedTextValue() {
    alert( $('#ddl').dropdown('get text') + " : " + $('#ddl').dropdown('get value') );
}

//get text output: Articles,Articles
//get value output: articles,articles

I can't figure out why this is/should be happening. I'd expect just a single text/value..

jlukic @ github.com/Semantic-Org/Semantic-UI:

The select gets converted into a dropdown. The dropdown call should be on the dropdown not on select after it is converted.

Makes perfect sense.
