Why? ¥2,000 for the food and the drinks are free. That makes perfect sense ,even in English.The advertisement said: フリードリンクス - ・2,000
That's kind of dumb, in my opinion. Even if it makes sense in Japanese.

You are talking about establishments that offer ヒ?ケ窶堙昶?「テコ窶佚ィ, yes? Well we are talking about Japan and in 99% of the 窶ケツ焦ステー窶ーツョ that offer this service, they offer it with a set menu and then there is the all you can drink. So yes, the drinks could be considered free with the accompanying meal. (Even in English in this circumstance)Apparently you don't know what free means. No worries, not worth fighting over.
Apparently you don't know what free means.
All I was trying to say is that I don't want to waste my time arguing with some guy on the Internet who is convinced labeling something that costs money as free is sensible, and much less someone who goes to the effort of composing an argument to the depth you want to. Just from the attitude in your responses to me, I understand that the only way to win is not to play.And enough with the passive aggressiveness. If you got something say, don't beat around the bush, just say, it does not bother me.
There is your problem, you think it is about wining and losing, good luck with that.All I was trying to say is that I don't want to waste my time arguing with some guy on the Internet who is convinced labeling something that costs money as free is sensible, and much less someone who goes to the effort of composing an argument to the depth you want to.

No passive aggressiveness, it's just a dumb thing to argue. Keep at it if it makes you happy.
No, you made all that stuff up. Read what I wrote:I on the other hand are trying to deal with the actual topic at hand. If you can't accept the fact that free drinks with a meal means that the drinks are free, but you pay for the meal, even though a marketing ploy, still makes the drinks free.
I never said anything about free drinks when paying for a meal. It was a set fee that you paid in order to get "free drinks." Everything you made up is stuff you made up for the sake of proving a point that, honest to God, I hope is not actually important to you despite the time you spent 'proving' you're correct; that things free things costing money makes obvious sense.フリドリンクス (furidorinkusu / free drinks) <maybe the spelling is off> - used at bars and restaurants to say that you can drink all you like... if you pay a fee. Not free. Why they use that instead of 飲み放題 is beyond me. "It sounds good," is the reason I was given when I asked about it.

You better re-read what I wrote.No, you made all that stuff up. Read what I wrote:

You need to re-read what you stated and what I commented on, nothing is made up, it is common sense here in Japan. Something which you seem to either be conveniently ignoring or you don't have any.Wasted time I'll never get back. The topic at hand seems to be you making stuff up for the sake of being a contrarian and having an ego about it. It's not about 'winning' an argument on the Internet, it's that when you debate with someone with your mindset, you automatically come out a loser.
Good bye!
Go play on a highway.He means "win" in the sense of benefit NOT in the sense of "Ha-ha I beat you!".
There is no benefit discussing with you. You are being a troll. If you are naturally this obtuse or if you are doing it for laughs, I don't know though.
What are you blathering on about? I can't tell, I blocked you :/
You are a ignorant piece of sh!t who can't hack being told that he is wrong. You seem to think that your opinion is the bees knees, news flash, you know sh!t, but you just can't accept it.
I have seen some native English speakers misuse "big words" they seem to have just looked up in the dictionary, but misunderstood the meaning, and so used it incorrectly.
To me most boring part of learning Japanese is learning English words that are just the same apart from pronunciation. I like learning another language because of the differences.
