Random (Restaurant) Conversation...
Last night in a restaurant I ordered Gong Bao Ji Ding (KungPao Chicken). This conversation happened in Chinese, here's the translation.
Waitress: Would you like it with chicken or pork?
Me: Chicken.
Waitress: We don't have chicken, how about pork?
Me: Uh, OK. Pork then.
Why did she offer chicken if there wasn't any?

At least you felt like you were given a choice ;)
True, it was the illusion of choice instead of a flat out "meiyou".
Mariah, I have invented a few things at the cafeteria. I get pork changed to chicken, this changed to that, etc. It's nice sometimes.
