Congratulations, You're Obese


A lunch at Chevy's left me re-examining my eating habits and the judgments that come with them.
We placed the order.

Waitress, "Do you have more people coming?"

Me, "Uh, no. I'm kind of obese."

Waitress, "Oh. Are you sure you want that much?"

Me, "Yeah, it's ok."

Waitress, "You know you get unlimited bowls of chips, right?"
At this point I began wondering why someone whose livelihood depends on us ordering lots of food is so vehemently questioning our fatness.

Me, "Yes, the chips are a good buffer."

Waitress, "Well, you probably don't need the appetizer. There's a lot of food without it."

Me, "Bring me the food."

After the meal - she was astonished/disgusted. She began, "I've worked here 8 years. No one has ever finished everything you ordered, congratulations!"


What she meant was, "Congratulations, you're obese."
