Hold the ice

At a McDonald's yesterday, I saw a sign hanging above the soda dispenser to advise patrons that the restaurant does not allow guests to bring in paper cups from a previous McDonald's visit for more free refills. What tyrants!

But someone had to have done it once, or twice, or a million times, or else the sign wouldn't be there. For whomever might do something like that, I don't want to know them. 1) They're clearly too tight with their finances to be any fun for a day or night on the town, and 2) It'd all just be too gross and disgusting. What's next? Would they start re-using paper napkins that they'd soiled during a previous meal?

Is this your subtle way of letting me know I should throw away my old McDonald's cups and stop carrying them in my purse, just in the off chance I can score a free refill?

'Cause, man, this is my first visit here and all, so you might have to be more direct.

(btw, I don't carry a purse. But the other? Yea, I might carry a few moldy paper cups around. Who wants to know?)
