A brief exchange at Starbucks:

Me: I’d like an iced chai, medium. I mean grande.
Barista: It’s OK, I speak both languages.

(At the hotel coffee shop during Westercon.)

Overheard in a Kona cafe

Diner: I was here thirty years ago and had the best beer I’ve ever tasted, anywhere in the world. <pause> This is the worst.

Waiter: I’m sorry, sir, I can’t do anything about that. It’s Budweiser.
