Yes it does matter because if the ice is more expensive they can fill the glass up with more of the "main drink" and still cost less. Also you are not getting the same amount of drink in that a drink with ice has more liquid in it than just the drink. The burger one doesn't work because the patty is more expensive than the garnish.

No actually the drink+Ice cost more considering Ice is more expensive than the drink. No there is a reason you should get more drink at no extra cost considering the Drink+Ice has more "drink" in it by that I'm talking liquid, sure when all the ice melts in the glass the level of drink goes down but it is still higher than a drink with no ice. Plus if you get a drink that contains no ice then technically there is no reason to charge the same amount of money for that drink now is there? In fact it should be cheaper but they still do now don't they? Especially when the glass is half full.

BS on that only americans do it, Europeans do it all the time how? By going on strike to get less working hours while at the same time more benefits and higher wages and a lower retirement age and your going to tell me they are not trying to get more for the money and they claim its their right to demand those things from the company.

Ya but those BBQ packets aren't going to turn a sale from a profit to a loss, it will still be a profit, and if it costs more tell them it will cost them extra, don't tell them it can't be done. Also for the drinks, ah like more than half the cost of a drink is the ice because the ice is the most expensive part of the drink, if you get a drink that is all drink you actually make more in terms of profit plus the drink is already cold to begin with so why should I get ice in my drink when a non ice drink is already cool to begin with?

Because you purchased that size of a glass, if I purchase a 2 liter bottle of coke, I expect 2 liters of coke, not 1 liter of coke or 1/2 a liter of coke or 1/4 a liter coke but 2 liters of coke.

Ok Brianct, if I went to you and said your family occupying the city of tokyo must vanish from the page of time. How would you interpret that?
Well its a good thing Hezbollah fought back considering it was them who started the conflict, you talk about the Lebanese army not fighting back, why should the Lebanese military fight Hezbollah's war? Israeli forces were primarily after and targeted Hezbollah forces and bases of support. I have yet to hear a good reason why Lebanese military should have gotten involved in the conflict considering it was a war between Hezbollah and Israel, not Israel and Lebanon. If the war was indeed Israel vs. Lebanon then all of Lebanon would have been attacked but it wasn't. What Hezbollah did was not in defense of Lebanon, considering they are the ones who started the conflict in the first place, but them fighting to survive, not Lebanon's survival but Hezbollah survival.

Ah the US is not bogged down in Iraq at all, they are getting out and they are already down to less than 50k. If negotiations go well in Afghanistan then the US most likely won't be bogged down in Afghanistan either.
Oh that is a lie, it may not attack directly but certainly attacks indirectly, how about them funding and supplying weapons to Hezbollah and Hamas. When ever Hezbollah attacks Israel that is an attack by Iran on Hezbollah.
And neither do the Palestinians.

And why is that wrong? I mean the Taliban do the same thing to their enemies.

No its not bitter at all considering they did this in Iraq recently which has turned out to work fairly well in Americas failure, this is no different then the negotiations the US did when it came to Unit 731 or nazi rocket scientists.
Also to be fair both sides will be forced into negotiations, for all the Taliban rhetoric saying they won't do any negotiations until foreign forces will leave its just not going to happen, they will be forced to negotiate with Nato just like Nato will be forced to negotiate with the Taliban and there is no shame in that nor is it a sign of weakness or strength on either side.

Actually they asked questions first and the answers to their questions was that she was in immediate danger and so they decided to act and during that act one of her captors detonated an explosive device that killed her.
Do you have any evidence at all to show that they didn't ask any questions at all? Because it appears they did and the intelligence they received strongly indicated they needed to act.

Not true, if you can get key concessions from the Taliban you can still honor those who died trying to defeat the Taliban.

What I mean by that is when it is officially confirmed to have killed civilians, not locals claiming it killed civilians. I'm not saying they don't, I just saying I don't trust the locals when they say they were civilians when the aircraft is targeting someone whom they believe is a militant.

Yes and I was more specific about it, the poster you were quoting was talking about physical abuse not the mental/emotional abuse that you were talking about.

Just curious about something klien2, why is it in your posts almost all the time you like the blame the father for the divorce when the vast majority of divorces are initiated by the mothers/wives? Again remember you don't need a spouses consent to get a divorce, it will take longer but it will happen.

The ex wife of savoie was given over a quarter of a million dollars plus primary custody and the ability to take the kids to Japan as long as she promised to bring them back to the USA. What really screwed her over was that she couldn't speak English.
