What happened to scrambled eggs??

August 9, 2021 – 1:08pm

Went out for brunch with Effie and Libby yesterday. Some diner-esque place. It was way busier than I liked but it was just that time of day. Before our food arrived, Libby had to use the bathroom. While having no distractions I overheard these 2 guys sat at the table behind me use the word “appalling” several times in a row. Initially they caught my attention by saying “no straw. I guess we’ll save the fish” but then going back and forth saying appalling made me wonder what exactly was so offensive.

But that’s not the worst part. When their food came out, the bigger guy says, “whoa what happened to scrambled eggs with cheese? Those are the most disgusting eggs I’ve ever seen” (over easy). When the sever came back… oh no! The cheese was missing. Fucking sound the alarms. The server offered to bring out some cheese on a plate but no, that was not good enough for Mr. Eggs. He said something to the effect of there being a big difference between cheese melted and then just some dry shredded cheese on a plate.

I understand you’re paying for your meal and you want it done correctly. I’m not saying his points weren’t valid but the attitude…. why?? You don’t have to be a pompous, condescending prick. Omg! Hahah I forgot to mention. When Effie and I got back out to the car she said she overheard him say, “they only buttered one side of my toast” to which she said “as opposed to what?? Both sides? Where have you gone to get both sides of your toast buttered?” Which of course cracked me up. Seriously I do not understand the sheer arrogance or some people. You’re not as impressive as you think, sir. Also your friend could possibly use some deodorant. It kinda ruins a person’s dining experience to have wafts of your poor hygiene in their face.

I wonder if they have ever seen Waiting?
