i swear to god if i go to buy iced coffee and they try to charge me an arm and a leg (in today's economic climate an arm and a leg is apparently worth approximately 2 dollars and 50 cents) i'm going to scream.
clearly this has been building up.* i think what really set it off was last weekend i went to the diner with my boyfriend and he had regular coffee and i, being the lady, had mine iced (i don't know why but doesn't iced coffee just seem more feminine?). guess who got FREE unlimited refills and guess who DID NOT.
seriously? SERIOUSLY? IT'S THE SAME DRINK. WE ARE DRINKING THE EXACT SAME THING.
i couldn't help it. i had to say something! obviously the following is what came out:
"listen, do you think that icing this down changes it somehow into something wildly valuable? i mean, DO YOU THINK YOU'RE PERFORMING ALCHEMY BY PUTTING A JUG OF COFFEE IN THE REFRIGERATOR?"
luckily i've gone to this place at least once a week for the last 8 years so they are absolutely used to the fact that i'm a lunatic.
for the record i think his answer was 'i don't speak english'. 'his' is the same guy that's been waiting on me for pretty much 8 years. he most certainly speaks english.
*it's been about a week since i've posted anything and this is what i come back with? weak.
