I went to KFC to get something for the kids to eat.
They wanted the kid's meal with a leg,so I said -
"Kid's meal with the leg",& the lady behind the counter
asked "Which side?".
Me - Complete silence,as I heavily contemplated such
an odd decision."I guess the right side - I don't know what-
the difference is".
After several moments of laughter,she says " No Honey -
which side would you like to go with the leg?"."Mashed -
Potatoes,or wedges?".

It was a long day......
 
And then you asked for a Twix bar for dessert...
 
In another time, the person might have asked which side order.
We are living in a time where language/communication changes faster than we can keep up with.
So now language/communication fails more often, leading to misunderstanding and alienation.
