Don't get me wrong...there is nothing wrong with ordering water with lemon, I do it frequently myself - when that is what I want to drink with my meal. I was specifically referring to the ones who order it, then dump sugar or sweetener in it to make lemonade. I just personally find that an overt demonstration of cheapness, kind of like smuggling your own popcorn into a movie theater.
