Grits

[Bright_Star]

Stupid ass truck driver comes into the diner & orders grits for breakfast. My boss told him that "I'm sorry, we don't serve grits". SA gets all pissy and says.."what do you mean you don't serve grits?? This IS a diner & EVERY diner I've ever eaten at serves grits!!"
Then my boss tells him.."Look, I don't know what to to tell you but THIS diner has never served grits. So do you want anything else for breakfast?"
SA then says "You don't have to be an asshole about it & gargle, barble blah blah blah!!! Then he walked out cursing up a storm & the regulars who witnessed what happened were all like
I wanted to tell him that if he really wanted grits that bad then he could have bought a box of grits up the road at the grocery store.

I love those people who think that anyone who doesn't give them what they want is an asshole, even if the request is IMPOSSIBLE to fill.

"Yes, I'd like you to take me back in time to about 8 o'clock this morning, but 8:30 will suffice"

"uh, I can't do that"

"WHAT?????"

"I cannot go back in time"

"Well you don't have to be RUDE about it you ASSHOLE!!!"

In my travels almost every diner south of the mason dixon line serves grits. I hail from the Mitten State and until I joined the Army I had never seens grits in my life. lol.

I'm surprised he was such a dick about it, he travels alot as a trucker, surely in his experience he has seen eateries with different menus. Gotta love people who never grew out of temper tantrums.

[MoonCat]

I don't understand the reaction of people like this AT ALL. He goes somewhere he's never been....doesn't bother to look at the menu, which is there for a reason....then gets mad when told you don't have what he wants? Get a grip, man, it's just GRITS! Eat something else!

[Dreamstalker]

"What is a grit, anyways?"

[Syriilord]

Well, to be fair he was telling the truth when he said every diner he ate at served grits. Especially if he behaves like that every time someone tells him they don't serve grits :P

[Pharm Girl]

I guess he rolled out of the wrong side of the truck this morning. Asshat.

[Pixilated]

Yeah. Good grief, he should carry an emergency supply if they're that important. They're just cooked cereal, right? So all he'd need would be some boiling water and a bowl or cup...

Isn't it illegal to refuse to serve someone based on which political party they support?

Since the Mitten State is next door to Canuckistan, how can you be sure that nobody from south of the border (take a close look at the Detroit/Windsor area) was of that political persuasion?

For non-Canadians, "Grits" is the nickname for members of one of the top 3 political parties in Canada.

Flo from the TV series "Alice", and later its spinoff "Flo".

Ya know, all of this talk about grits has got me thinkin'...and, as some of you know, this is seldom a good thing >_> I figured something out -- grits are the Light Side of the Force, and oatmeal, its counterpart, is the Dark Side.

How did I come to this conclusion? I'm glad you asked.

<entire board> Wait, we didn--- *lightsaber whoosh*

It's really quite simple.

- The Dark Side has cookies.
- Oatmeal is good with cinnamon and sugar.
- Mix that with a couple of other ingredients and you get oatmeal cookies.
- Doing this with grits most certainly does NOT yield cookies.

Therefore, Oatmeal is the Dark Side. QED

"Grits" was also the nickname a certain classmate had for me when I was in high school in northern Florida. And I don't eat grits.
