So part of my job is running a coffee shop the family owns. I don't like it but meh, I do it. Here is an interaction I just had with this guy that comes in regularly but never gets anything:

Weirdo: "What's the caramel apple cider?"

Me: "It's apple cider with salted caramel added to it"

Weirdo: "Can you show me what it looks like?"

Me: "It looks like apple cider"

Weirdo: "What sizes does it come in?"

Me: "12, 16, and 20 ounces" *as I point to the cups*

Weirdo: "Which one is the small?"

Me: "the 12 ounce..."

Weirdo: "Is that what I smell right now?"

Me: "Huh?"

Weirdo: "Smells like apples"

Me: "No...."

Weirdo: "I'll come back later and try it"

Me: "...."

My favorite CS story: Some years ago, I went to a Dairy Queen and ordered the hamburger that came with a 16 oz drink. The drink came in a small Blizzard cup. I said to the guy that there's no way this is a 16 oz drink. He said, "Oh, but it is." He then took it behind the counter and put it on the scale. I'll be damned if it didn't weigh exactly 16 ounces. You just can't argue with logic like that. "I'll have the burger, fries and a pound of soda, please."

Well, he wasn't wrong. It almost sounds like he's done this before.

I went to DQ one time and as the girl was about to hand me our blizzards, she asked "Do you want lids on these?" to which I replied "Yes" and then she just handed the blizzards to me and shut the window. I looked at my wife and said "WTF just happened. Did I say yes or no?" We had a good laugh and just drove off.

Similarly redundant;

Just recently I went to a restaurant with my family (I see my family once a year because Canada is big so this is worth noting lol) and the waitress asked us "Do you want dining room or bar?" We said "dining room". She goes "The dining room is full, but I can put you at the bar"

?!?!?! Why ask then?

"I don't want a Large Farva, I want a liter of Cola!"

For some reason this struck me as relevant. Carry on.

That reminds me of going to Applebee's with some people from work, and one guy asked for a "diet cola". The waitress says "we don't have cola, we have Pepsi, is that OK?" He said he guessed that would be alright.
