last weekend we visited a very rural texas town.
i stopped at a convenience store to purchase beer. i put the 6 pack on the counter. the clerk looked at the beer, then up at me and asked "you want some minnows with that?"
the assumption being, if you are buying beer, you must be on your way down to the fishin' hole and you will be needing some bait.
later that day, we had dinner at the all you can eat catfish shack. my wife asked if they served beer, the waitress replied in a whisper "no, but if you have some in your truck, i can give you a cup".
the assumption being, every one driving 'round them parts gots beer in the truck (next to the minnows).
as we left the all you can eat cat fish shack, i over heard the owner say to an extremely large man in motorcycle leathers "well, i can cook you up a little sump'in, but i can't give ya the all you can eat deal."
the assumption being, the large man would eat all the catfish, wash it down with every ones beer and swallow all the minnows for dessert.
