Language Barrier

Okay let's say you're at the Apple Pan. (By the way don't go to the Apple Pan on Sunday nights. It's their last night of the week and they run out of stuff, like lettuce. P.S. Try the burger without lettuce. It's awesome. )

Where was I...

Oh yes let's say your at the Apple Pan enjoying a burger with your friend. Your friend points to the burger in his hand and says, "Can I get another one of these?" Now you'd think your friend just ordered another burger.

Yes you'd think that. Until this showed up.

    Hi Jorge, in one of your old post you talked about fruit.Someone advised you to eat more fruit and talk more about it. But you said that it was not funny. And i agree. Perhaps talk of the importance of lettuce on burger will be more funny. So friends of Apple Pan next time do not bring empty burger. But i think even talking about lettuce is fun, so i thin it's more fun wished a Happy CHRISTMAS to you,your family,your girlfriend and especially to bees. At last.... i didn't have pleasure of seeing your space, so i hope you don't stop to write for the blog, and maybe one day you will answer to me...Kisses from Italy..

    The same thing happened to my son one time when we were going through the drive thru at McDonald's. He (being a 13 year old boy on a growth spurt - read "bottomless pit") was STARVING, and he ordered a double cheeseburger, fries and a shake. The order arrived and we pulled out. He unwrapped the hamburger, all ready to chow down, and there it was, with all the fixings - except the meat. Imagine someone letting all the air out of a balloon and you'll have the idea of what his face looked like.

    Merry Christmas to you, your girlfriend, and your family. NOT Merry Christmas to the bees. I'm grinchy like that.

    Wow . . . apparently they run out of A LOT of things!

    Merry Christmas to you and yours. Yes, even the bees. Seeing as how the ones that stung you were disemboweled in the act, they must be mourning right now.

    WTF? That's really funny.

    There's a pub that we like to go and the same thing happens except with beer. By late Saturday night they have nothing left.

    Those no meat freak people are laughing somewhere. Probably in the Pearl Hatch.

    Ha ha! A very similar thing happened to me on a trip to North Carolina. I ordered "a number 3 with bacon", and received a dry hamburger bun with 2 strips of bacon inside. Nothing else.
