My exact conversation with the guy working the drive-thru window last night at Mickey D's:
Him: Welcome to McDonald's. Would you like to try one of our Angus Third Pounder burgers?
Me: No, thank you. But could I please have two double cheeseburgers, two small french fries and a 10-piece order of chicken McNuggets? (It's important for me to mention that I was ordering for another person as well. I totally wouldn't eat TWO orders of fries.)
Him: Anything else?
Me: No, thank you.
Him: Do you know about our special deal on pumpkin items, like our pumpkin shake?
Me: Oh, no. Tell me about it.
Long pause.
Him: Well. It's....um....new....and it tastes like pumpkin?
Me: No.....like, what's the special? How much is it?
Him: Oh! You can get two pumpkin pies for a dollar.
Another long pause.
Me: Well, what about the shake?
Him: It's just a shake.
Me: Okay, give me the pies.
The moral of this story? I can be talked into almost anything if you confuse me enough.
