the restaurant

where i work, i see a lot of couples coming and going. they buy stuff from us. and time and time again, i take orders for waffles, and i notice that whenever there are asian couples ordering, they order one large waffle and they share it. like, the 5'1" 90pound girl eats a quarter and the 6'2", 180pound guy gets the rest.

brings to mind the time sarah and i were feeling high. as is typical in our conversations, we were talking about food. in particular, the amount of food different people can eat. the two of us eat a lot, ok. as in, we can pack away a lot. more than seems possible for our height.

on the other hand, jon and leon are bamboo sticks. they're taaaaaaaall and thin. like, THIN.

so sarah and i thought up a hypothetical situation.

setting: hungry jacks
time: not now
characters: sarah [the one with the bigger burger]
kim [the one who wants the bigger burger]
finathan [the one who can't finish his burger]
leon [the one who doesnt want his burger]
four of them sit down at one of those squashy tables in the restaurant. that's right, hungry jacks is a restaurant. sarah and kim order double whoppers with cheese. jon orders a grilled chicken burger. leon orders [i was gonna say french fries, but i thought that was a bit mean] a whopper with bacon [just cause he can].

kim: *to sarah* HOW COME YOUR BURGER IS BIGGER THAN MINE???
sarah: WHERE GOT. YOU WANNA FIGHT IS IT?
kim: NO, I JUST WANT THE WHOPPER. GIVE IT.
fin: stop fighting. you can have mine. i can't finish it.
sarah: cool! it's mine now.
kim: but you got the bigger whopper.
leon: *wakes up* shut up guys. eat mine.
sarah, kim: YAY!!

if sarah and i ever order waffles and someone goes "you wanna share?". we'll be like "NO, you want one you buy your own. i need a WHOLE waffle".

Totally. Why on earth would you share a waffle. I want my own waffle. I'm hungry I feel like a waffle. *YUM*
