What’s something dumb you order when you’re out? Only thing I ask for, is no onions. I’m not a weird order guy, but I heard many as a server. What about you?

Sometimes, but not often, I'll get no sauce on a pizza

Not a food order thing but I always ask to sit in a booth and it sometimes the host/hostess gets mildly to moderately annoyed with me. I don't like sitting at those tall table things.

One time at Farmhouse, my wife asked if the chef could make the eggs scrambled on the sandwich instead of sunny side up, because she hates the thought of yolks, and the hipster douche bag wouldn’t do it.

I try and be a least of a pain as possible when ordering. Partly out of respect, especially at a nice restaurant and partly just because I know a change is a pain that they will prob forget or mess up anyway. Your egg thing is weird though. That's a pretty easy switch. Its also a bit of strange request though. I'd prob just forgo the egg depending on the sammich of course.

Yeah, i'm not a pain either. Seems like an easy switch tho. It's a texture thing for her. I don't think the chef at Farmhouse has the right to act superficial tho. .. It's the farmhouse.

I was once around a friends, friend who was a major cheap ass, ask a Kites server: "What's the cheapest alcohol drink you have, with the most alcohol in it?" and I wanted to run away from the table.

I usually don’t associate myself with losers like that. I was very disappointed, Mich. He was a poor super lib, who leached off people, you would have loved him.

Breaking news - patron at a college town bar asks for the drink that will get him the most mumped up for the least amount of money.

If you're doing that in your early 30's, end it all.

Eh, people used to ask me this daily at Scoreboard when I tended. I usually just said warm tequila and they ordered a rum and coke.

I just puked a little bit thinking about taking a warm shot of well Tequila. lol

Just thought of a good one. I worked with a guy that was a lunatic about his food touching other food. Like, his plate had to have all food separate and if the green beans were even close to the potatoes, he would immediately separate them further. It was pretty bizarre. We were at a "nicer" steak place somewhere and he got the filet with mashed potatoes. There were a few of us at a table and they started plating on the other side of him first. I noticed that for whatever reason, the chef placed the steaks directly on top on the neat pile of mashed potatoes. I immediately started watching my coworker as he sees this too. I thought he was going to have a heart attack watching everyone else get their food, knowing that his steak was just sitting on top of those taters. I enjoyed watching him squirm and then immediately remove the beef from the potato mountain when he get finally got his plate last.

I worked with a woman who was on the verge of tears at an office lunch outing because pickle juice touched her sandwich. I don't think she asked for no pickles though, just to have them on the side? It was very odd, she seemed entirely level-headed the rest of the time I knew her.

There's a weird OCD thing associated with it. I believe the only known cure is to loudly announce "It's all going to the same place anyways!"

Pickles are the rough ridin' worst man, they infect everything they are within a 10 inch radius of with disgusting pickle taste and smell. I hate even picking them up to move them (as soon as possible) because that smell lingers on your fingers forever no matter how much you wash your hands. It's getting my heart racing just thinking about it.

Nothing else really does this to me.
