Devil Take The Heinz Most
For years, I’ve been racked by my good old Catholic guilt when asking for extra condiments as I sailed through the drive-through of various fast food chains. Maybe I was asking the wrong way or somehow being unclear in what I wanted? I purposely modified my language. I spoke clearly into the mysterious “speaker system.” Still the same response. I’m not sure I can sit idly by any longer without exploding with rage. When I specifically say, “Can I please get some salt and a few extra ketchups?” how does that translate into two packets of ketchup and six packets of salt? Who needs six packets of salt?!? And how is two packets of ketchup ever enough? WTF?!?!? /Anonymous
