POLL: If a guest at somebody's house and you had their last cold Coke Zero, would you replace it?

[StageLeft]

So would you? I mean me this is @*#(ing obvious. There is a reason I have cans of Coke Zero in my damn fridge, so that they are cold when I want one. As a guest, please feel free to take one, but holy sh*t can you please put another back in? What in all hell am I supposed to do with warm coke? Were you raised in a barn? WTF?

*UPDATE 5/18/2010*

OWNAGE. 18 months but I have my revenge. Last night I reach for a cold Coke Zero and my father in law has taken it from the fridge without refilling from cupboard. I ask about it and get nothing more than a laugh. I will never forget the laugh.

I put a coke zero in the fridge. Hidden. Tonight he goes looking for one, cannot find it, and mocks me in the way I scolded him yesterday saying he's going to have to have a warm drink now and how awful it is. He pours a warm CZ into a glass with ice. As he walks back to the couch I get mine and say "I'm going to go and have my cold coke that I hid in the fridge.". He cannot believe it. My wife is reminded of my awesomeness. I have won.

You want random guests going through your pantry to find out if there is another soda to replace the one they took? How about you just keep more than 1 in the fridge, or be a proper host and keep it stocked yourself.

FAIL

knowing that other, warm cans are in the pantry

Maybe they think you were smart enough to hide some cold ones for yourself.

How comfy of a guest is this? If it's like a best friend, or a close relative, yea they better replace it. But if it's a less casual guest I would never expect that.

I stand by my second statement. You're the host, you keep it stocked.

In the past I've done that

Now I'm taking up the top shelf of the fridge with my coke cases. Damn, there are few things I care about, but having a cold Coke Zero whenever I want one is at the very top of the list.

This.

No, but my guests are usually pretty 'formal' and never raid my fridge. Either we offer them something, or they ask, and we say yes, which then causes me/us to refill the fridge as we are 'serving' them as guests.

If your house is self-serve, then I guess they should put some back in. Depends on the attitude and relationship, or how often they're there. A sibling brings someone over practically every day, so the guest has her own supply of coke.

Inlaws then yes they had better replace it if they knew where it was and it was right by the fridge.

Then again I usually grab the warm one, glass, and ice instead of drinking somebody else's cold drinks. Thats just me though.



EDIT!!!

Also depends on age. If they are 15< in age then yes the should have

What about getting 12 pack fridge cases... if a guest were to take the last one out of that, and then leave the empty fridge pack in there, then I would cry foul. It might encourage your in-laws to ask if you have more, or at least hand you the empty so you know to restock right then and there.

So many options to fix this, but I would strongly consider murdering the in-laws, it's the only way to be sure.

 

[bobross419]

I would never drink Coke Zero [Flavor]. It would depend on how close I am to this person. 1st or 2nd visit? No. Subsequent visits probably.

BTW, your Topic Title and Poll Question are a bit ambiguous. I voted based on the Topic Title and the thinking that fuck no I wouldn't go out and buy someone another soda. After voting and seeing that the poll question was different I would have changed my answer. Just saying...

 

[queenrobot]

Yes, if they knew there were more in the pantry. I wouldn't be too upset if they didn't replace it though.

I think murder is probably acceptable in this case.

 

[WelshBloke]

I would take your coke zero out of the fridge and fill it with beer.

 

[CPA]

Only solution: Ban the inlaws from coming over.

Fixed for accuracy.

Fix it right if you must fix it. Just watched Aliens last night, actually.

 

[Jeeebus]

Did they have to sift through rows of Zima to get to the Coke Zero?

Mrs hates the 12 packs in the fridge!

You are a rare and fantastic individual.

 

[GoingUp]

If I knew there were more in the pantry, I would restock the fridge. The pantry is mere steps away

Of course, why didn't you have more than one coke zero in the fridge if you have a pantry full? Damn those things are tasty.. mmmmmmmmm

 

[ggnl]

It would depend on how much I secretly hate my host.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Weak rant. :thumbsdown:

1/10

Dude, just pour a warm one over some ice. Problem solved.

 

[darkxshade]

I don't typically raid someones fridge just because I'm a guest, they usually offer me a drink and I either accept or not. If I do, they usually get it for me.
