3 course meals annoy me

if I go somewhere posh and the waiter says 'what'll you have'
I say burger please, onion rings
anything else?
yep extra onion rings

And I'm starving hungry, can't wait for my big fat burger and the waitress says, you want soup first?

why? why would anyone eat soup before a meal? if I eat a meal it's because I'm hungry, and the meal I eat will be my meal to fill me

do you want soup? no, I ordered a fucking burger dumbass

The simple answer: they have a script to run, they don't particularly expect you to want everything on offer, or care about your preference, it's something they are required to ask in order to potentially upsell.

The longer answer: maybe you aren't an average customer and maybe most of their customers prefer soup prior to their burger with their cursed onion rings, maybe their lifetime of experience catering to onion ring-eating burger Joes led them to instinctively expect a soup as a precursor meal, and your irritated-bordering-on-irate countenance and decorum are causing them great confusion and dismay. Perhaps it is YOU who is the problem, with your goddamn onion rings and your fucking burger?

this a great answer, needed a laugh thanks man!
 
If you don't upgrade to onion rings over French fries when the opportunity presents itself you are 100% a Communist. If you get coleslaw? Terrorist. Steamed vegetables? Socialist. Side salad? @TidWell (love you bro)


@HughPhug you are preaching the Gospel yeeeeeeeeeeeeeet again!
 
and then desert, 'how was your meal'
lovely thanks, stuffed
you want cake now?
no
ice cream?
NO
cheese board

WHO THE FUCK EATS 8 DIFFERENT CHEESES AFTER HAVING A MEAL?

what's wrong with you people?
Don't hate the player, hate the game, Hugh!

The more items you order, the bigger the check is, the bigger the tip has to be. Supposably.

And those "extra" sales piss me off too. Effin annoying.
 
I'm gonna do a carrot and butternut squash soup this weekend.
Loads of turmeric/lemon grass/ginger/chillies
 
When some people around the table order appetizers, some restaurants will serve the appetizers and you're just sitting there waiting watching other people eat until mains. It's basically a hostage situation where you end up being peer pressured into buying the appetizer as well.
 
Good man, I had some onion rings recently that were cooked in an onion bhaji style batter, best onion rings ever!!
Can you believe some people hate onions? Heathens imo

Right? fucking rude is what it is

I try and tell the waiter to bring all the food at once, bring the their appetizers with the main meal, or bring my meal while they eat their gay garnish whateverthefuck

then I can bounce while they're pretending to like each other
