In my crotchety old age I'm becoming, shall we say, a bit more short of patience than I used to be. Since I don't have the appetite that I used to I had rather have small portions of food when I go to a restaurant so I will order half orders and a "small" glass of iced tea. Sure enough, here the dumb bitch comes hauling a 5 frigging gallon glass of tea on a damn two wheeler. I say, "take that back and bring me a small glass of tea. She says, "I'll have to charge you the regular price." Me; "I don't give a fuck, I'm not going to drink 5 gallons so most of it will be wasted plus there's not enough sugar in this restaurant to make it drinkable for me." After that I'm afraid that they'll piss in my tea when they bring it to me so I don't drink any of it. I just drink the water. (I don't go out much anymore.)
You missed out on a good deal. I share your pain. Why is the 2L bottle of Diet Coke less than half the cost/oz of the 16 or 20 oz bottles? You made my day, Broome. I've changed my avatar in thanks.
Meanwhile, "redneck" went down the road to the next store, got their water, and was home before all the cases were loaded up. Yeah, you showed 'em.
What's funny is the chA0tic reaction to the redneck was pretty damn redneck! At least she was drunk and acting all indignant and shit. Great story though!
