    Is it really an English thing? I feel like that’s the only logical interpretation of “I’m feeling nice today” in that context. What did you think he meant before reading my comment?

      I thought they meant they will be nice and order him pizza instead of doing it themselves. Like at a restaurant when people order food. I think it would be strange if someone asked me to order them something then get mad I didn’t also pay for them.

      There are two things here that imply that the askee is paying, the ‘i feel nice’,and the ‘i got you’
