Oh, good, so it's not just me... ;)
For some reason, I do that all the time. The look on their face says it all.
At a local pizza place, they sell soup, pretty good soup I might add. On the
board it's 12oz, 16oz and 32oz. I always order it by Pint or Quart. That
gets them going as well. Ah... a pint, that's 32oz, right...? No, wait, isn't
that 16oz?
I know, I know, I'm an anal-orifice (tm).

At our local McDonalds, I once asked for McNuggets. Offered sizes of 8,
12, or 16, I asked for a dozen.
Got the "Deer in the headlights" stare; she had to call the manager to
decypher "dozen".
Tell me about the "dumbing down" of America! :-(
