ice drinks: a paper rant







*disclaimer: i wrote this while i was on an airplane that was turbulancing all over the place and i thought i was going to die. so if there are squiggly lines, or if the thought process is off, that's my excuse. it is valid.

I have been turbulanced. It sucks.

I hate when they do that

this has happened to be before when ordering iced coffee drinks at starbucks. too many times, in fact, that it got to the point where i would exclaim in a minor rage when ordering, "this time, can you not put SO MUCH ICE THANKYOUKINDLY KJDHKJHDSJHD." and the poor starbucks person just looks at me like, "whoa. this chick is freaking out over ice." but seriously, i'm not paying for ice, i'm paying for a refreshing drink that is more than two sips. sheeesh, is it too much to ask? i think not.

Super cute... :)

Suzy, this post is hilarious :) I do agree, ice should not be the main ingredient in a $5 drink! I am sorry about that ordeal...

Kara said...

Bahaha that last page almost made me pee. The squiggles are legit. I'd squiggle too if I was fearing for my life.

This is the exact reason I order all drinks with light ice. You wouldn't believe the strange looks I get.

Your paper rants are SO hilarious. I look forward to them every time I click on your blog!

Kara said...

biscuit: haha you're heartless! poor dollar store... :)

kelsey: absolutely.

steven cain: indeed. especially when you're trying to draw.

kelly ann & criston: totally. ice is like 0 cents and if that's all you're gonna give me, i would like my drink free, please.

kara (the sunshine cupcakes one): oh good. thank you for validating my squiggling. :)

carla: aw thank you! :D

amylou: strange looks or no, at least you're getting less ice!

kara (the once there was a tree one): well thanks for comin by! i still read your blog every time you post, but i haven't been commenting as regularily lately--oops. :) still enjoying it though.

I am so happy to have found your blog! I saw you left a comment on my blog a few days ago- and I wandered over and am happy to meet your blog! I love the adventures of your $5 Italian soda. Since Italian soda is one of my top ten favorite things, I would be pretty bummed too about the ice experience. :)

Love,
Mandy @ she breathes deeply

i loved this paper rant. especially the randomness of it. also, i would've complained and asked for a new soda!!

Holly Knitlightly said...

Bleh, club soda is the worst!!! What a bummer. Too bad you didn't buy those rosemary triscuits instead.

suzy said...

mandy: aw, thanks mandy! i've been following your blog for maybe a month now and i'm really enjoying it. :) you're such a cute little pregnant lady!

row: oi, i should have. i'm just so bad at that kind of thing. when i get a fly in my soup i just quietly put it in my napkin and try to eat from the other side of the bowl...

holly: mmm, next time i absolutely will.
