I don't know what the correct amount of drinks should be consumed at
a restaurant. But I can drink a lot, when I went to Comic-Con in San
Diego, back in 2010, I would sit through panel after panel sipping on
a large water bottle I took in with me. I sat in one of those ball
rooms for a solid eight hour day, only getting up to hop to a better
seat between panels. Not once did I hit the bathroom, by the final
panel, Futurama FTFW (For the Fucking Win, trying to be hip, probably
failed with that), and I had a good seat from three rows back. Fuck
the big screens, I got to see those voice over actors pretty much up
close and personal, and didn't really need to use the zoom on my
camera for those pictures either. And after that panel I met up with
my sister and mom at the Hard Rock Cafe, which they turned into Cafe
Diem from the SciFi show Eureka, for dinner. When the waitress came
by with a glass of water for me, they were charging $30 for a fucking
salad and I was not going to pay for something to drink with ten
pennies worth of sugar flavoring in it. Fucking rip off, even if that
salad was damn good.
That waitress was
damn good, she never let my glass empty. She told me after we got our
food that I had drank two pitchers of water by myself. She was just
impressed that I hadn't pissed myself at the table, or flooded their
bathroom. She even asked if I had a catheter running to a bag tied to
my leg. It would not surprise me at all if some of those geeks were
going to those lengths so they didn't miss anything for that weekend.
I told her I was just a desert creature and would drink like a camel
at the oasis. I ate there the next day too, and the same girl was
working the table I was seated to and she just left the pitcher there
at the table and came back to refill that, easier on her feet with
the less trips.
I have always had
this condition, in high school, for lunch I would drink a three liter
bottle of soda. Sure an hour or so later I had to piss like a fucking
racehorse but that still won a number of bets that I could in fact
drink that much fluid and not die. And now when I go to my favorite
restaurant in town, I try to limit myself to only four glasses worth
of iced tea. And one of the waitresses got the idea to bar back my
drink. Here's a picture from lunch.
Those are two 32 oz
cups. Two of them, they were both refilled twice. And I have that
much every day. Sure this could be a sign of a problem but at least don't have kidney stones.
