Takeout Junkie

You know you are definitely a takeout junkie when:

  1. You call and before you give them your name and address, restaurants and takeout parlours have already caller-IDed you and know exactly who you are, and what you want to order.
  2. Chinese takeaway place knows that you keep coming back week after week ordering the same old sam-siew fan (with soy chicken, NOT duck) that they don't even bother trying to attract future custom with free keropok anymore.
  3. Delivery man thinks you are now his friend and tries to make conversation each time but really, all you want is to eat your food.
and the latest realisation when

4. Today, when you receive a text message informing you that you are a valued customer at
[so-and-so] pizza place and that you can order your favourite pizza at a special price.

Currently doing: what else? waiting for my takeout.
