“Once I saw a duck walking down the street so I went into Subway and ordered two pieces of bread, and they informed me that they could not do that, like there was some speical rule at Subway that two pieces of bread weren't allowed to touch.

It's like give me a chicken fajita sub, but don't worry about ringing it up, it is for a duck.”
