The complexity of ordering a Burger |
|
In Burger King in city centre last month.
Two old ladies walk in looking unsure as to what they should order.
Finally they approach the young girl behind the counter and ask for two beef burgers, two fries and two coffees.
The young girl replies, in thick Manc accent:
"We dont do beef burgers, only ham burgers!"
The old women, completely confused, nod their heads and leave. |

Spot the vegetable |
|
| In the Co-op, two people serving behind the counter, one Indian guy with very strong accent, one Manc girl with very strong accent, one female Manc customer with even stronger accent. The customer hands the guy a courgette. He looks at it, doesn't know what it is, and asks the Manc girl "What is this?" She rolls her eyes, takes it off him, shows it back to the customer and says "What is this?" and the customer goes "I thought it were a cucumber." The three of them stare at each other in silence. |
