Shrinking Bread Inspires Witty Retort

So Steve and I were at Macaroni Grill a few days ago, ordering our usual -- halibut for me and scampi for Steve -- and while we were waiting for our entrees to arrive, the waiter brought the traditional little loaf of bread and filled the tiny saucer with oil.

And when I say "little," I mean "dinky," because the size of the loaf the waiter set down was easily half the normal portion.

Me (upon waiter's departure): What? What!? Look at how small this thing is, will you? What are they trying to do? Downsize?

Steve: Maybe they're trying to save some dough.

I don't care who you are...that's funny.
