This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Man what the fuck is this thing in the US? Why don't they have defaults? Like if I order a cheeseburger I want the conversation to end there. I don't want the cashier to ask me if I want the normal cheese or the smoked one or the whatever the fuck they have available. And then if I want the normal fries or the country or or wtf. If I wanted an other-than-the-default I should had said it by myself. Or even worse once I was asked "which kind of cheese would you like in your cheeseburger?" Wtf sorry madam I didn't study your catalog yesterday while at home to know in advance which kinds of cheese you have in your restaurant in which I come for my first time ever. I just want a fucking default cheeseburger, not to discuss with you about it for 5 minutes

If this is the kind of service you want, why are you even going to a sit down restaurant? They ask because people don't always know what their options are. "Oh I can get tots instead of fries? I'll take those."
