Bitch is lucky I can't fit through the drive thru window.

The next car a cute little girl waved at me.

There's a per letter price on signage.

When I talk, I use the thru version though.

:laughing:

Incidentally, why do you use both instances of the word "through"? Thought you Americans only used the short, WRONG way of spelling it, being so lazy/busy...

A ****ing penny? A cent, here? You've got to be kidding me. Most places won't even bother giving you the penny back if that's all you're due, and if you walk up with 99 cents for a euro item or are short one lousy cent they'll not bat an eye and just take what you have. ****ing Americans.

if you babe to my register with 99 pennies I'd tell you to go **** yourself.

When you work for a company its their money, their till and it's monitored so it has to be exact. You go to a mom and pop type corner store then they might let you slide.
