2. You would have liked the Arby's in my college town
A friend of mine worked there, and this guy is one of the funniest, fastest-thinking people I know. There was a Baptist revival going on one week, and the flock decided to hit Arby's close to closing time with just my friend and another guy working. The evangelist went last, and after he picked up his food he thanked my friend and then said, "Oh, by the way, Jesus is coming." To which my friend replied, "Do you know what he wants to eat? We're about to close the kitchen."

They didn't come back the rest of the week, but they shot my friend some dirty looks.
