When you order soda and they bring you out a glass and a can

...

That would be soda, dumbass

my point is if you don't have a drink machine then specify that it's a can. or just don't have soda. I might be a flyover state fatass or complaining about this but i really hate how so many restaurants in bigger cities do this.

why are you complaining about a soda that tastes better than fountain garbage?

They're doing you a service by bringing you something in a closed container, which makes it significantly less likely that it was poisoned.

you're trying way too hard to be edgy

places around me that do this are usually foreign places full of people who cant imagine why americans need to have a bunch of sweet drinks with their food

I went to New York a few weeks ago and FUCKING NOWHERE had refills. One place even made a ruckus when I asked for more water. Even McDonald's didn't have a drink machine for guests to use.
I'm from Florida so I expect free refills I guess. I work in a restaurant and I know there is like 1000% markup on sodas, so there's no reason for them to not give refills.

>the glass has some ice in it and the cook put some mint in it too
