Thanks for all the support in 2016, see you in 2017!!
So many of these are brilliant. The assigned seat thing at the movies… I actually devoted a blog post to that and other movie theater pet peeves. Oh, and the Coke vs. Pepsi thing… If I’m at a restaurant and the server asks if Pepsi is okay after I’ve ordered a Coke, I’m tempted to ask if he’s cool with me paying in Monopoly money. No. Pepsi is not okay.

I have a blog post devoted to assigned seating at movies too!! So glad someone else gets it haha.
Yes! I don’t mind Coke and I don’t mind Pepsi. But if I ask for Coke, don’t try to give me Pepsi, I want Coke.
