the thread about nothing...

[Renaldo Balkman]

don't you hate when you go out to eat, and the menu never has prices for drinks... but you don't want to seem like you are nickeling and diming it to ask how much the drinks are? yet after you purchase your first couple, the waitress says "do you just want to get the bigger size? it's a better deal?"






random rant: begin...

I have never even considered looking at the menu for a drink.

I think they've done research and the more soda you drink the more likely you are to return.

People who dont follow back...wassup with you?

How you got 565 followers but you only follow 124...AND YOUR PROFILE IS PRIVATE.
This means you had to take the time to "accept" the person following you, but you dont take the time to follow back?
Is your life that interesting that you feel you deserve that many followers but the overwhelming majority of them arent worthy of being followed?

I really like to know the thought process behind this. I understand if youre a celebrity but all you do is have a blog and a NT account.


If I sound angry I just want to state that Ive never had a twitter account.

just messing around man... have a good weekend

 

[|A-Man|]

Nah, I don't experiment with drinks much. I'm cool with some lemonade or a sprite. Any other type of place a simple alcoholic beverage.

 

[megatron]

No, you weren't just messing around. you were trying to make fun of me and hurt my feelings. which you succeeded in. you even made it a game by making your post into a quiz with mutliple choices and a question mark.

Thats a pretty good insite. I go to Wendys and I ask for the medium size meal and I get the pop that im thinking is like a supersize and im like I didn't ask for this. But, thats their medium size drink. And I do always go back. If true thats trickery.

Caring about how a waitress perceives you is preventing you from asking how much are drinks.



Read that 10x and think about it

not so much what the waitress thinks but mainly being the only one of the table to ask... perhaps it is a cultural difference but where I am from, it is somewhat looked down upon if you are the only one in the group to ask about a price of something...

soft drink size determines how much you go to a restaurant? i just realized my top 3 places that i go to actually have the smaller medium cups (in n out, chick fil a & raising canes) as opposed to wendys, or like a jack in the box.

naw, not a particular restaurant, but fast food in general.
having all that sugar and caffeine in your diet affects your mood and some say even gets you addicted so you're more likely to go back to fast food in general

i hate it when i'm on the escalator and people feel the need to tell me to move because they want to run down, if you're in such a hurry to get where you're going just take the stairs.

Interesting... And everyone will give you the death stare? What are the repercussions of asking for the price of something at a restaurant? It just baffles me because if there are no prices on the menus, why is bad to ask?

I seriously hate it when i am hanging with some one and they are on their phone 24-7.  Then you text them and they don't respond.
Like i know you live on your phone just reply with "no thanks" or something.
