Breakfast at the Holiday Inn
Waiter: "Are you ready to order?"
Me: "I am, I'll have the denver omelette. What does it come with? Are there hashbrowns on the side?
Waiter: "No we don't have hashbrowns."
Me: "You don't have hashbrowns? Do you not have any dishes on your breakfast menu with hashbrowns?"
"No sir we don't"
"Ok . . . um . . . thats strange"
"What kind of toast would you like?"
"Brown please"
20 minutes later my breakfast arrives resplendent with hashbrowns and white toast.
"Err, I thought you said you didn't have hashbrowns?"
"We don't sir, those are called skillet fries"
"But its the same thing"
"No those are skillet fries, we don't serve hashbrowns"
"Ok . . . and actually I asked for brown toast"
"I'm sorry sir we didn't have any brown bread"
"Do you have a secret name for that too?"
Awkward pause.
"Enjoy your breakfast sir"
