How do I get a drink with no ice in it? Every time I say “no ice”, I get ice. I even tried asking for no ice, the drink, no ice, in a glass with no ice, and STILL GOT ICE WITH IT.
Adding ice is just filling your cup with 60% water. Filling the same cup with the same drink and no ice would be less profitable because you’d wait longer to order another.
My wife has the same problem, something we do if we havent been to a place before (our regular places are goos about no ice) she will order “water no ice” and Ill get something that is not water. If her water comes with ice she tell the server “sorry I asked for not ice”, Ill chime in with “Ill take this glass then” and smile at the server. Next glass is always no ice and the server doesnt feel like they wasted effort because the water they did bring is going to be drunk.

You probably said “ice” so many times that they couldn’t stop thinking about ice.
As an analogy, if I tell you not to think about an elephant, what’s the first thing you think about?
Giraffe!
Ice cheap, drink expensive?

Except I get water. I just want water, with no ice
