Another thing along those lines that always bothered me was renaming sizes. I've been to several pizza places that cycled all their sizes down. Large is now "Family", Medium is now Large, and Small is now Medium. It break the rules, since "Medium" is defined as "around the middle of a scale of evaluation". So by definition, medium =/= small!
Grrr. I hate it when retailers and/or advertisers insult my intelligence.
