Cliff Crawford: "In college one semester I worked at the deli counter in one of the dining halls. After making a sandwich for someone, I was always supposed to ask,
"Do you want chips, or a pickle?"
(with intonation indicating an either-or choice, though of course "neither" was a valid answer too)
"You would not believe the number of people who would answer, "Yes.""
