I went and picked up a sandwich at lunch the other day and the menu said it had "avocado spread."
Me: "What's the avocado spread?"
Sandwich Girl: "Well, the avocado is a green thing--I don't know if it's a vegetable or a fruit--"
Me: "Uh, I know what an avocado is, I just wanted to know what's in the spread."
Sandwich Girl: "Avocados."
Me: "But it says it's a spread"
Sandwich Girl: "Right."
Me: "So how is it a spread?"
Sandwich Girl: "We spread the avocado on the bread."
I just want to know, at what point did I become the idiot in that conversation?
When you tried to engage an idiot in conversation in her own demesne.

OK that was funny!
I'm reading through some of LDS Womens blogs, and you made me chuckle. Chuckle is a word I don't often use, but it fit. Nice to meet you, in a cyber blog kinda way!

That sounds like a vey painful conversation. I would have had to walk away at the risk of saying something too rude.

Um? Was the spread guacamole or was is simply just a mashed up avocado? I think I just suffered idiot transferrence:)

I hate eating at places when the servers can't give me info on the food. When I was a server we had to know everything about everything on the menu. So did you order it?

Hi - I just went looking for CGB as well...I guess it's outta business now, huh?
Everything going okay for you, aside from silly sandwich personnel?
