Overheard at a Local Restaurant

Diner #1: I say, quite a jolly good tuck there, what what?

Diner #2: Indeed, indeed. And now here's the bill.

Proprietor: Here you are, gentlemen.

Diner #1: Hmm...antipasti, pasta puttanesca, very good...wait! Three hundred dollars? What on earth?

Proprietor: Is there a problem, sir?

Diner #2: Look here, mister, this bill adds up to three hundred and fifty-nine dollars!

Proprietor: Indeed it does.

Diner #1: It says here I owe $150 for the lasagna! On the menu, the lasagna was $14.95! And the price of the calamari went up by...1000%!

Proprietor: Oh, relax, gentlemen. It's just the latest trend.
