This is silly and only sort of related but the “first date” I ever went on, was probably around 14 years old. The waiter came up and asked whether we would like cocktails. Being the man and seasoned pro I asked the waiter what kind of cocktails they had.
He responded by saying, “Sir, we have all kinds of cocktails.”
After some silent and mental deliberation I said, “in that case, I’ll have a shrimp cocktail.”
At that point, the waiter cracked a smile and realised we were both a little young to be drinking. Oh, yeah, they didn’t have shrimp cocktails.
