Soft Drinks

Coke is about as dumb a term for generic soda as there is. When I ask for a Coke, I don't want to have to clarify that I am in fact asking for a Coke, and not a Sprite or a Pepsi.

If you asked for a Coke, you wouldn't get a Sprite.  And if they offered Pepsi, they would tell you.

No, they'll just ask "What kind?" Which is annoying because I already told them. Thankfully, this happens very rarely, generally in the boonies.

I imagine in Coke country when a person requests a Coke it means Coke, and it also functions as a substiute for soda when the speaker is not asking for anything. ("Don't drink too much Coke, it will rot your teeth.")

Then get out of the fucking boonies, Cleetus.

YOU DON'T HAVE COKE HERE WELL I NEVER I'LL JUST HAVE WATER

Yes, what's wrong with that response?

Petty, nonsensical, immature, and entitled.

Well it's the only way of helping them to recognize the error of their ways.  And while I know that it isn't really the waitstaff who can control it - it'd probably be more bizarre to call over their manager (which would likely also get them in trouble).

Not sure I understand entitled as a negative in this context.  I think restaurant goers are entitled to get the food that they want.

Ide would love the communist era restaurants in Poland. Only two items on the menu and you get what the working class (i.e. cooks and waiters) want you to get, not what your bourgeoise fancy suggests you may like.

There is even a permanent vegetarian option: potatoes.

Laying off the sodas, not to mention maintaining a 2,000 calories-a-day diet, and I've lost 30 pounds since January 11th.  This weekend I was wearing jeans I haven't worn in 6 years.
Make of that what you will.

You are getting hipsterish in your dottage and have cancer?

Lulz, I still have my button-fly 501s from when I was in my early 20s, when I had a 29 inch waist.  They're my "cancer jeans".  Just in case. 

[Martinus]

Jeez. I barely fit in 32-33.

I was buff back in the day.  You would've hit on me.

Even if I use a creative imagination, I still don't think you were Marti's type.  (Of course that says little about whether or not he would have hit on you.)

CdM manicures his hands so it's possible he does the same to his feet. Marti would be all up in that... if he got up in anything, but you know what i mean

Marti's standards strike me as a little more involved than are you a male with nice feet.

Is Marty into fungus?
