Now, I understand the need on something such as a receipt to shorten the name of the item...but honestly? I reeeeally think you could have chosen a better abbreviation of the word "supreme", Jack in the Box.

Oh wow. If you wouldn't have said "supreme," I would've thought that said something else.

What, exactly, do you like on your croissants?

...That was amusing. I wouldn't have been able to tell what you had eaten if you hadn't said "supreme..." ;D

Thank you for making my day. lol

Now that I look at the receipts I have, (they are numerous because of my late night studying) ALL of the abbreviations seem a bit...questionable.

Who makes these anyway? -tosses out receipts-

I don't know about Jack in the Box, but as far as Taco Bell goes, there's a reason burritos are sleeve shaped and the ends are folded last... That's not sour cream in there. smile

Wow. That...leads the mind to other things. xd

I know that I do love vowels. I love whole words rather then the abbreviated versions.

Acronyms are completely different.

Haha, that's true.
I usually know what the abbreviations mean, but sometimes it can get a little difficult...
But yes, vowels are important.

Vowels are definitely important in this world, at this point and time.

Not cool man. That's worse than the frat boys who started hitting on me... Vowels are lovely.

Ugh... -shudder-

It's sick, I know. If not for the explanation, we'd all have the wrong idea.
