True stories...
1. A man went to a McDonald restaurant, and the girl at the counter asked him: "For here or to go?" (asking whether he wants to take the food home or eats it at the restaurant). Confused with what she meant by that, but trying to look not stupid, he answered: "Fresno" (thinking maybe she asked him where he was going to go). She said: "Excuse me?" He replied again: "I'm going to Fresno". Someone next to him noticed the situation and explained to him the meaning of the question. :-)
2. A man went to Subway restaurant and the guy at the counter asked him: "White or wheat?". Not knowing what the guy meant, he answered: "Both". The guy asked him: "Do you like to order two sandwiches?". The visitor said: "No, just one". The counter guy asked him again but this time slowly "Do you like it with white bread or wheat bread?" :-)
3. A woman went to Fred Meyer convenient store and waited in line to pay her groceries. The counter guy asked her: "Plastic or paper?" The woman, confused with the guy's question but embarrased to ask, answered: "Ok." The guy asked her again with the same question but with more words this time: "You want your stuffs in plastic bag or paper bag?" :-)

ReplyDeleteIni kejadian sebulan yl. waktu suami sakit tenggorokan dan pergi ke ER (karena sampai nggak bisa ngomong). Setelah diperiksa, ternyata kena strep-troath. Suami nanya dengan suara parau,"Is there anything else other than strep-throat?" (suami takut banget kalau ternyata kena sakit yang lain-lain). Susternya heran ,"What?! You want to go to Mexico??".
ReplyDeleteJangan2 susternya juga orang asing kali tuh mbak...
ReplyDeletehabis beda pronounciationnya jauh banget,
"strep-throat" kok bisa kedengaran jadi "Mexico"...! :-) :-)
