If The Restaurant Gives You Lemons…

(I and some friends arrive at a beach restaurant. It’s nothing fancy, but actually very modest. A server approaches and starts taking the order for our drinks.)

Me: “Hi. I’ll have a lemonade?”

Server: “We don’t have any lemonade.”

(I am really shocked, because lemonade is one of the most popular drinks probably on Earth.)

Me: “Okay… then… can I have a glass of water?”

Server: “Sure.”

Me: “And some lemons?”

Server: “Sure, I’ll bring some.”

Me: “And do you, by any chance have a little bit of sugar?”

Server: “I can bring you packets or cubes!”

Me: “Whichever you have is fine!”
