    Customer: A cup of coffee please, the usual order. A few minutes later, the customer asked for the bill. Customer: What? $4? Wasn't this $3 yesterday? Waiter: Yes sir, that's correct. Unfortunately, due to the increase in the price of gasoline, I'm afraid we have to increase the prices of our products as well. Customer: Since when did you start putting gasoline on my coffee? :) Might not be applicable on other areas like the Middle East.

                    Right, at least gasoline is sweet (coming from sweet crude does make a difference)! :-D

                      I'm afraid that the average customer would genuinely not understand how those two are related. Maybe I'm just underestimating my fellow humans. Like the somewhat famous protest sign: "who needs oil? I ride the bus!". Is it irony, or is it idiocy?
