[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People who order things by saying “I’ll do . . . “. Can’t you just say “I would like a blueberry muffin” or something? When and why did “do” become a thing? It’s incorrect and weird.[/quote] I frankly think it's american egalitarianism. We don't like to pompously order servers around. I think we all try to soften it with "I'll have" , "I'll get", "I'll do" rather than "Please bring me the..." "I'm going to order the..." etc. It's just people trying to be folksy and not demanding here. This one is the least bothersome trend, to me. [/quote]
