Conversations I almost had had - the Tim Horton's version
So last Sunday the kids and I end up at Tim Hortons so I can get coffee for me and my Lady-love. Not particularly newsworthy, I know, but there’s a fellow there who has brought two German tourists out for breakfast. He’s trying to explain all the wonderous joys that are constitued by Tim Horton’s in the morning. Like a double-double.
“What’s that?” asks Herr Guest.
“Two sugars and two cream.“
“Ooh, I don’t want the sugar.“
“Well, you can get it with just the cream. Now, you better look at the doughnuts and decide what you want now. Would you like a muffin or a Boston Creme?“
…
Okay, my feeble mind phased out along the way, probably helped by two children anxious for me to goon them up on baked goods, I’m sure. The next part of the conversation I heard was Herr Guest asking, “Can you go to McDonald’s for breakfast here?”
“Well, I guess, but I don’t really know why. It’s not really healthy for you.”
Not that I necessarily disagree or anything, but I have a really hard time listening to someone giving out free health advice while lining up for a double-double and a doughnut-doughnut. Ease up a bit, mac. How about we let other people form their own opinions, mmkay?
I mean, if it’s alright for me to think that..
