Scene 1:

"Pretzels or Cookies...?"

"You don't have any ginger ale??"

"Well yes we do, but, as you can see, I only have pretzels and cookies with me. Would you like one?"

Scene 2:

"Pretzels or cookies?"

"What are my other options?"

"Well...basically I just have the pretzels and the cookies, but you can eat this napkin here if those don't appeal to you"

Scene 3:

I am holding the snack bin low, so that the gentleman can see what it contains.

"Pretzels or cookies?"

Man looks into bin, looks at me, looks into the bin...

"What?"


Sigh...
