Notes on a conversation overheard at a local fast food establishment

“I'd like combo number two, with cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion, please.”

“Do you want pickles on that?”

“No. Just cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion.”

“Ketchup?”

“No. Just cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion.”

“Mayo?”

“No. Just cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion.”

“No mayo?”

“Right. No mayo. Just cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion..”

“Okay … ”

[mumbles to self] “At least I didn't get the hamless ham and cheese without the cheese [1].”

“How do you do that?”

“Do what? [2]”
