When I was a kid, I used to drink soft drinks all the time. This is mainly because my parents drank soft drinks all the time and didn't say that I couldn't have them. At some point a doctor told my dad that he needed to cut out the sodas. And since dad couldn't have them, nobody got to have them. So I got into the habit of drinking mainly water, with an occasional soft drink. Just about the only time I drink sodas is when I'm at a party, or if I order a combo meal that includes a drink from a fast food joint. When I order "just" water, nine times out of ten, the cashier will pull out a dinky little cup that's smaller than the kid-sized cup. I got one today at Panda Express, and I had to get up twice to refill my cup. Do restaurant managers think that people who drink "just" water somehow drink less than people who order sodas? Or that the rediculously overpriced meal I just ordered doesn't cover the price of one of their precious paper cups? If that's the case, just charge me the whole nickel it cost you to buy the cup in bulk and let me have my tall glass of water!
