Well He’s Certainly Not Calling Out Their IQ

(My mother and I stop at a local fast food restaurant, located across from the high school. The high school has varying hours for students, and during this time, only AP students are allowed off campus. We place our order and get in line behind two teenagers to wait for our food. Our number is quickly called. While eating, we notice that the teens are still waiting for their food.)

Server: “Order 219, your food is ready.”

(The server had been calling this number since before we ordered, and we are now halfway done with our food.)

Server: “Last call for order 219.”

(One of the teenagers turns to the other.)

Teen #2: “Are you sure that’s not our order? We’ve been waiting a long time.”

Teen #1: “I’m sure. He’s calling 219 and our number is two-one-nine. See?” *shows friend the receipt*

Teen #2: “Oh, yeah. Well, I hope they hurry with our food. I’m hungry!”

(I fear for the youth of our nation.)
