role reversal

[skyboyblue 0]

so my parents want to take me out for a burger. so we go to wendy's. We arrive and take a minute to order, I'm first to order, and after that, my dad asks if they take local checks. They do not. Mom says repeats the question and gets the same answer.

Dad states that he'd rather not even do business then and goes on how ridiculous it is. I have cash, so I'm buying. meanwhile mom is ordering and trying apologizing in the non-apologetic way you know... "fine! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, fine!' and turns her back on dad. Dad quips back with 'well I'm not the one making the scene here'

we get our food, sit down and its silent. dad bitches that the fries are cold. I'm trying really hard not to smile, and finally I had to laugh out loud because this is such a role reversal.

I'm buying dinner, and my parents are the one making a scene in public.

quite possibly the best 15 bucks I've spent.

just thought I'd share

He should have just dipped them in his frosty and then it wouldn't have mattered..

It's a strange country where you can buy a burger with a cheque (it's CERTAINLY not Canada anyway). Whatever happened to cash?

Good story tho.

Umm, has any fast food joint ever taken checks, out of state or local?

Braum's takes checks...

Fries dipped in Frostys are the bomb. For that matter this associate convinced me to try champagne and french fries at out Christmas party...that was pretty damn good too.

Oh, and for the ultimate, get one of those super size humongous frostys, take it home and heat it slowly in a saucepan on the stove. It's the thickest creamiest best hot chocolate ever (especially if you add a little cinnamon schnaps to it).
