— Hey, waiter! That cup that you've brought me, is it tea or coffee?
— Sorry, sir, you mean you cannot tell by the taste?
— I can't.
— Then what difference does it make?
- noman-land 2y agoIt makes a difference because if I drink coffee I'll die. Since you know nothing about me, how about you let me decide what I want and why.
- nine_k 2y agoIt's a joke, and not a serious dialog, exactly because there may be a difference (not necessarily life and death, but maybe the price), but it fades beside the fact that the drink is so bad that its taste is incomprehensible.
- Dylan16807 2y agoThen it was pretty foolish of you to just say "I can't." with no elaboration when the waiter asked about telling by taste. Well, either foolish or a deliberate bait so you could berate him more easily. Neither option looks good. If you wouldn't have answered like that, then the story isn't about you.
