maybe this is a PNWism bc i don't see anyone else complaining about it, but i really hate "i'll do a ..." which i often hear when people are ordering drinks. "what can i get you?" -- "i'll do a pbr" or whatever.

could be? i started hearing it a lot once i got out of the pnw and into the sw. wanted to ask them what cave they just got out of
i find 'i'll do a...' or 'lemme get a...' grating
