Sneaky Bastards
So the other day, Wednesday to be exact, I ate at Burger King for lunch. Note that I rarely eat fast food because, well, the shit just ain't good for 'ya...but I was in a hurry and I needed something 'fast.' This is where the 'sneaky bastards' part comes in. I went through the drive thru and ordered the number five...it's the angus burger with fries and a drink. The price is $5.39, I think...could be a couple dimes more. Anyway, after I made my order the person on the other end of the intercom asks me "what size would you like, the large or super-size?" By asking "what size would you like," rather that "would you like to get the large or king size for x-cents more," it immediately becomes a trick question. He/she asks as if those are my only two options and if I respond "large," assuming that is the original size I ordered, then I will get charged and extra $0.40 and an extra $0.65 for the king-size. So, just in case i've managed to confuse the hell out of you here's the bottom line: if you go to Burger King and you don't want the large or king size, when asked, make sure you say "neither, just the regular size is fine." But, before you go, make sure you look at THIS, it might change your mind.
