Inflations

With all our economy and taxes [except q8] being drained on superb projects like 'food for oil', 'destroy and mad cows making love to birds with flu, things are getting expensive by the second.

A few nights back:

I am standing at the counter of a really snazzy fast food joint and I ordering some fries, [cuz the pocket are light - end of the month], and having 5 bucks left , im pretty okay with jus fries for the day. He puts his head into the counter and comes up with a price tag ”oh that’s only 2 KD sir”, im like what the…. Okay…im hungry, no arguments, I’ll take it.

Puts does some ting-ting and says that will be 25 KD with taxes and inflation etc etc…[me jaw dropping and watching], then I go…
”ermmm…how much for the ketchup?”,

he says “that’s 2 KD inclusive all”

me “ I’ll take it ” [cursing under my breath with a twisted smile]

n then I woke up!! :)

Is that a general "you" or a "you" meaning me? If it is for all Kuwaitis, I agree!

If it is for me, about half of those do not apply ;)

I haven't had a complaint yet about my cooking.
