The apocalypse has come.
If you're not dead cuz of Jesus, Kool-Aid, or giant chocolate bunnies, you've got to make contact with the alien leaders. How will you tell when the conversation is finished?

Waitress Fail

Waitress: "Would you like a side of chips?"
Me: "What kind?"
Waitress: "Salty."
Me: ".....oh. Is that the end of the sentence?"
Waitress: "What?"
Me: "The sentence. Is that the end of the sentence?.........about the chips?......salty chips?......that's it? Any other type of chips? Or, Is there anything else that can come with the sandwich?"
Waitress:"Regular chips? With your sandwich."
Me: ".......I can't believe this conversation has gone on this long......"
