"Well Doc? What's the verdict?"
"Are you serious? We just talked about this. Do you not remember?"
"Oh... I... I... yeah, I totally remember that... and those things were..."
"Well, first of all, there's the apparent memory loss. Then, as we just discussed, there's the obvious dementia, as well."
"What? Dementia? I'm sharp as a rock, doc. Where did you get that? Show me my chart!"
"Dude, for the last time, there is no chart. I'm not a doctor. This is a Denny's!"
"H-h-whut?"
"And most people drink coffee out of those mugs, not the complementary maple syrup."
Update: Wow, a lot of people butthurt on the joke about the mental acuity of an 81 year old! Chillax people. I'd vote for a dead dog if it stood a chance against Trump. Doesn't mean we take it to Westminister and demand a blue ribbon for how obviously healthy, active and beautiful the dog corpse is. Let's acknowledge the absurdity of the reality we are in, please.
He must be a new waiter at Denny's.
Nah. Drinking it from the mug is too classy for the average Denny's clientele. Most drink it straight from the jug. And not waterfall into their mouth style. Mouth on spout style. Enjoy your breakfast.
3 AM Denny's is where it's at, man. Eat fries and pancakes while watching the only other people in the restaurant play musical plates with their food.
