Classic Italian Sub Goes A-Rye

Started by Geakz · 11 months ago

While ordering a Classic Italian sub at the local pizza joint, the young girl across the counter asked me, “Everything on it?”

I paused to considered and replied, “No mayonnaise.” Of which I was met with a befuddled stare.  She made no move to key in my request. This made me wonder if the [...] ... Continue reading »

  • Oh, good God that's funny! Just so you know, I don't order subs with panties either. They don't digest very well.

    As for polishing apples with your pants, this must be a guy thing. A chick would always go for a nice, clean paper towel. BTW, we should wash our fruit really well. A woman my sister works with got very sick from a bacteria of some sort that was traced to her unwashed apple. How you feelin' about now?
  • OMG, It's hilarious ! But if I was in your place, I'd not be amused ... pissed off ! And then I'd laugh later and twitter about it and you'd be commenting on it instead of me :D

    If you ever get a chance to watch a cricket match, you'll notice the bowlers try to roughen up the ball in their crotch area and stain their pants red.
    Totally accetable behaviour in that gentleman's game.
  • Jaffer! Your time will come. Just when you least expect it of course. And Kathy and I will be the first to read about via Twitter. I had neighbors in Chicago who played cricket. I never made it to a weekend game - wish I had.

    Kathy, you don't know how pleased I am with the fact you got a chuckle. I bet a panty could put a shine on a Macintosh, eh? Will take the apple advise to heart. Constitution is O.K. for now - more worried about dang Jalapeno peppers than apples these days.

    Growthumbs... not just 'mayonnaise' but 'NO mayonnaise'. Say it about 5 times in a row. See! Who would a thunk? As for your apple polishing technique: "unique" comes to mind.
  • Never would in a million years would of thought that mayonnaise sounds like Panties!

    As far as apple polishing goes I'm an under the shirt apple polisher my self. Got a few stares to say the least.
  • If you would have said, "No mayo," I wonder what she would have heard?
    And, no mayo on that apple, please.
  • Amy: I was thinking about this very thing! The obvious problem was that I wasn't using 'restaurant speak'. Hence, Mayo should have been substituted. Thanks for your comment!
  • I don't like mayonnaise on anything either. How do you confuse panties and mayo? That's pretty funny.
  • Hi Chelle: It was very surreal indeed. I'm making inroads with pronunciation when ordering food now. I'm especially sensitive to condiments. Even that word lends itself to misinterpretation. Oh well. Thanks for your comment!
