I had a fantastic burger at Pafos airport when I flew back to the UK the other week...

The burger flipper took the lids off a long line of add-ons (onions, chillies, cheese, tomato, etc.) and asked "what do you want in it?".

He obviously hadn't been told "everything" before but it was delicious....  cloud9:

That's a bit like (hope this gets past the swear-filter) SubWay then. They create your roll, then ask what you'd like extra. They don't seem to understand the concept of everything. Mind you, it does tend to make for a biggish roll to get in yer gob like.
"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." 

Well, someone had to say it!
