Pluggers by Rick McKee for May 27, 2010

Isn’t this normal?

What happens if the waiter replies, “We do, but you’ll have to come back in about twenty years.”

Subway has a senior discount, but you have to ask for it.

He’s parked close to the door, if he’s legally in the blue parking space he’s a plugger. Otherwise he’s a putz. Be a gentleman, go with her or go yourself. Unless he’s still looking for a parking space or she has to pee…

My dad used to do this on family vacations out of town — only it wasn’t “senior discounts” at a restaurant he wanted to know about ….. it was for directions when he got lost!

Nah, if you’re married to a Plugger like mine, he just drives past any offramp on the Interstate that has a FOOD designation and then innocently asks, “What? You mean you wanted to stop THERE?” Repeat until Mrs Plugger goes completely insane with hunger/thirst/need for potty break! Grrrrrr

flhtcu91, “normal” would be calling the place on the phone. A plugger would do so from home, on a black rotary phone, while thumbing through the phone book.

I didn’t know pluggers had the cash for restaurants. Even when traveling, we usually find a grocery - bread, lunch meat, fruit, raw veggies…
