You go to a fine dining establishment. They ask you what size drink you want. You say "regular". The huff and puff, "we only have small, medium, and large sir".

Well, retards, "small" is called that, because it is SMALLER than the norm, and "large" is called that, because it is LARGER than the norm, so if someone says "regular", which any ape would understand as a synonym for "medium", or "normal", or "the norm", which one do you think they fucking want? I know fast food businesses aren't exactly working with the best materials, but you can't find anyone smart enough to translate "regular" into "medium"?

I had this encounter at a small family owned burger joint. I ended up sexually assaulting the owner's daughter in the parking lot.

Was convicted, sent to prison, and served my time. If some rude, obnoxious BITCH does it to me again, I'll burn myself alive in their toilets with gasoline.

If you aren't one of the people that work there, you are absolutely above the people who do. The only ones who can't grasp this are the perpetually unemployed, or the sad saps that have ended up at an Arby's cash register, after being told how special they were growing up, and so they still need to find some way to believe in that, in spite of all the contrary evidence that their life has given them.

If you aren't a student, or a bored retiree, and you're working at an Arby's, or a McDonalds, or whatever, you need to just shut the fuck up, eyes ahead, get through the day, and try to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it.

Indeed it does, Jamal. This is why you'll always be making fries, ringing up orders (probably incorrectly), and then crying that nobody is better than you. They are, Jamal, they are. That's just the way it "is", and you can keep sucking dick if you don't like it.

Your argument relies on the assumption that "small" and "large" are smaller and larger than the norm, respectively. However, there is no norm, so your argument it based on a false assumption. No one size is considered the default. In fact, if anything, the small size is the default since that is the one whose price is represented in the menu in most establishments.

"Small" and "large" have no definition unless they are smaller and larger than something. It isn't a false assumption, it's the way words work, and it's something that 99% of the population inherently understands. Smaller than what? Larger than what? The middle? The norm? The regular?

It is so obvious, and so widely understood, that I have - for three decades - been able to request "regular" and receive whatever that is, whether it is called "regular" or "medium" or whatever else, without further elaboration, so consistently, that the few times it doesn't happen stand out in memory.

"Regular" is perfectly normal, and is universally understood by anyone with an IQ of 85 or higher. If you can't hear "regular" in the context of a drink size, understand that you have small/medium/large, and translate that into the correct selection, you're an idiot, and you're working right where you belong.

Regular and medium are not synonyms anywhere besides the decrepit mind of retards and boomers with dementia.

It is. Your entire argument falls apart here. Smaller than what, larger than what, there is a norm, a regular, and 99% of every idiot working fast food understands what it is without further elaboration. It's just a notable few dumbasses that can't get it.

If you have three sizes, one is smaller, one is larger, the one that is left is neither smaller nor larger, and is therefore regular. This is why I have, for more than three decades, gone to uncountable restaurants, asked for a "regular" and gotten it without issue. It isn't hard to figure out, which is why even fast food workers have a 99% success rate doing it. Unfortunately, the concept is too difficult for you. You should try applying for disability or something. "Too stupid to work", something like that.
