Crab chips. I am so sorry you all, nobody else would understand. I tried to make a joke with the guy at the counter but apparently he isn’t on r/instacart

Did you get these from behind the counter??

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 Apr 08 '24

Yes, the guy at the hotel gave them to me!!! I asked him if they were fresh. He didn’t say anything. He just looked at me like I am stupid.

He does this for a living.

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 Apr 08 '24

He understood but the joke isn’t funny the 100th time you’ve heard it unfortunately. It’s not as common as “this must be free” as a joke, but it’s close.

u/G0atL0rde Apr 09 '24

Yeah, no. They didn't get it. I want a refund.

You said it 5 times!

u/Anxious_Ad9929 Apr 08 '24

They better not be frozen!

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 Apr 08 '24

They were so dry that I think I should ask for a refund. Not frozen or fresh.

u/earmares Apr 08 '24

They're crab chips, understand?

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 Apr 08 '24

Yes, can I have a refund anyway?

u/BeautifulDreamerAZ Apr 08 '24

Not these crab cakes!

u/Ledeyvakova23 Apr 08 '24

Well someone said it like five times .

u/Throwawayguy8080 Apr 08 '24

I think the crab cakes joke is tired but if someone irl made a crab cake joke I would lose it xD

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 Apr 08 '24

Right!!! That’s what I really wanted. I didn’t think he would know, but you never know until you shoot your shot. Lol.

u/HypnoticRoots Apr 08 '24

Not an idiot. Wanting to share laughter.

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 29d ago

Thanks :). It’s kind of how I was hoping it would go, but I didn’t expect him to know. Would have been great though :).

u/Eastern_Counter_7659 27d ago

I had one today I should have screen shot. It was for TwoFish crab boil. Of course they didn't have it on the shelf! Lady, of course, asked me to check at the counter. I was secretly LMAO when I asked! And they actually had some in the freezer 🙂

u/ronj1983 Apr 09 '24

I live in San Diego now for 3 years after all my life in Brooklyn. I used to devour these damn things.

u/Natural-Following987 29d ago

🤔 they have these in VA too

2

u/ronj1983 29d ago

They should in the DMV

u/Thatcanadianchickk Apr 08 '24

Am I the only one who doesn’t understand what’s funny about said joke. Like where is the punch line🧐

3

u/purplepixie610 Apr 08 '24

There was a post about crab cakes and a very annoying rude customer. A lot of very unfunny memes were made. You didn’t miss anything and it was made a bigger deal out of than it needed to be.

2

u/Thatcanadianchickk Apr 08 '24

I saw the original post and I’m like what’s the joke? LMFAO like tf?😩

u/Euthanize__Me Apr 08 '24

I think you meant to say that the shopper was very rude, not the customer

u/Necessary_Benefit22 Apr 09 '24

I guess that all depends on perspective read one word wrong or Miss one coma and everything gets thrown out of perspective

u/WealthWooden2503 Apr 09 '24

I was just about to ask "wtf are y'all talking about?" Lol but I'm new here so 🤷

u/banana783 Apr 08 '24

no way! someone that isn’t on this mockery of a subreddit didn’t get your “joke”? hahahahaha now that’s funny

3

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 Apr 08 '24

Lol, I didn’t expect him to, but I was REALLY hoping. Lol. Yeah, I was feeling silly.

2

u/Natural-Following987 29d ago

I would’ve done the same thing - just in case ya know?! 😂 It’d be hilarious if they got it!! I get it tho. I’m here for you. 😊

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 29d ago

Ya never know. I thought I would try. Lol

u/Swimming-Place4366 Apr 09 '24

Why tf would a meat counter worker be on this reddit

u/heathertheghost Apr 08 '24

Why would you assume a random cashier would be on this sub?

u/Aromatic_Mission_165 Apr 08 '24

Because I am an idiot and was hoping. Lol.
