Starting tomorrow we're under an excessive heat warning until further notice. It's going to be 110+ until a cold front rolls in and drops us under 105 in....I dunno....mid September or so.
If the soda machine is not behind the counter and you fill it yourself, do you think it's implied that there are free refills unless stated otherwise? Or do you think you can only get free refills if it's explicatly stated that's an option?
The best thing to do is assume it's free refills by helping yourself to a free refill. If men/women in aprons start yelling at you, you will know that it is not free refills. That's when you yell back "There's no sign, assholes. Maybe if you filled the fucking cup like somebody who isn't lazy this wouldn't be an issue. You want your dollar fifty now for your precious soda, you cheap pricks?!? I make more in a week than you do in a year, little people!!!" Problem solved.
Will it be a dry heat that entire time? Because winter can kill you too. Right through the eye with an icicle, via Bruce Willis or lying about your Red Rider BB Gun..
Some of this might have to do with the animal it came from. In general older or poorly treated cattle will result in tougher meat. For the high-value cuts that means they aren't good for anything more than hamburger, but tougher cuts like the short ribs might still be sellable. If you ever get the chance, go to your local county fair sale and buy some kid's 4H project steer and have it butchered. It will be the best non-wagyu beef you've ever eaten.
At least I didn't use the southern go to "Coke'. Everything's a Coke. Although being a Coke Nazi has it's own special implications... Argentina: 128-year-old man claims he is Adolf Hitler
I remember someone telling me "Mr, Pibb is my favourite Coke." I'm like "huh?" Because it's actually a Dr. Pepper clone.
Southerners are special. I opened a flea market and my nearest competitor had been in business something like 150 years and was called First Monday because it was held on the first Monday of every month. I had mine open every weekend. Some guy asked me "How's your First Monday going?"
It's not just implied, it is universal. This is America, land of excess, including unlimited free refills (single visit only).
I'm really proud of my apartment complex, its now been one day since someone last pulled the fire alarm...
Yeah the onus is usually on the establishment to make it clear they don't give free refills. I don't think Ive been to a restaurant in 10 years that charged for individual refills, even if the soda machines were in the back. I do think it's kind of dickie to get your own refill at quick service sit down places, with wait staff, unless the service is flat out terrible.
At a resteraunt in the Rio in Vegas, a casual burger/American food place, the waiter will ask you if you'd like a refill on your soda, what they don't tell you is that refill will cost you $2.50.
Thats catholics, this is evangelicals, they got tons of free pamphlets and a starbucks nearby I'm guessing. Maybe I can meet some nice divorcees tomorrow and help them see Jesus. Side note, I do prefer a Catholic service to Evangelical.
