I had to make a quick run to my office to prepare for tomorrow and 4 kids were running a little lemonade stand.

So I figured...hot day, entrepreneurial spirit, what the hell? So I stop off for a glass of lemonade.

Good lemonade. Very refreshing. Good on 'em!

I will support that all the time.

I'm going to assume that their business model was not required to collect and remit GST. It was seemingly low revenue overall and they're not my clients. Because they were like....maybe 10?

I did not give them a lecture about business taxes over a glass of lemonade. I appreciate their effort and love the fact that they were fans of the Wranglers.

Unpopular opinion, but I'm super over lemonade stands. Fk em. I know it makes you a superhero if you stop at them and then you can tell all your friends what a gem you are, but they're nasty, annoying, and stupid.

Doesn't bother me when kids try them and they look quaint in the neighbourhood, but I'm not giving these little shtstains a penny anymore.

I usually just give them money especially if its the neighbors cool kids. I can only envision them stirring the jug with the bare hand that they have scratched their poorly wiped pooey butts with and it grosses me out. So I just buy one, give them ten bucks and then dump it.

I know we don't but indeed you can. When I gave the homeless guy begging a $20 a while back and told me to go fata myself, I ended that forever.

The problem is that I want to give the kids money and support them taking initiative, but I don't want icky child mixed lemonade in my mouth. When they expectantly ask how it tastes, you're an ass if you don't take a quick swig, smile and go mmmm.

I'm the exact same way, but I will admit, this lemonade was quite good. I was impressed.

Ah, whatever. They're out there working in the heat rather than sitting in an Air Conditioned room playing X-Box or whatever.

I'll give credit for that.

Yeah I think it’s fun but I honestly don’t think I’ve ever told someone about a time I’ve been a patron.

I think you guys are underestimating kids and overestimating the difficulty of making a jug of lemonade. It’s literally stirring powder or frozen concentrate and water with a big spoon. Nobody is using their freaking hands to stir lemonade. That’s pure projection from some of you.

This one kid is always filthy with the snotty nose. You are cool with someone blowing crystal meth smoke in your face so we have differing levels of nasty tolerance for sure.

Yeah, and then its pouring from a jug into a Solo cup. I think the germaphobe element is over-rated.

I also refuse to eat anything at office potlucks. No way.

Also cannot stand powder lemonade. I have a costco size econo tub of that crap I keep around for some reason. I didn't need that tooth enamel anyway.

Thats a different story!

One is stirring a powder into water the other is a dozen people in questionable hygienic cooking situations just getting their hands all up in there over a dozen odd dishes.
