A stranger walks into a bar and puts a pound coin on the counter and asks for half a pint of bitter. The barmaid asks him whether he would like Guinness or Worthington. The stranger asks for Guinness. Another complete stranger comes into the bar, puts a pound on the counter and also asks for half a pint of bitter. The barmaid immediately pulls half a pint of Guinness. How did she know what the second man, who was completely unknown to her, wanted?

(think in a crooked way for this one)

Earlier that evening, the barmaid had some beer of her own. After several drinks, she became severely intoxicated. When the second man came in, she used her body-switching powers on him accidentally, because she was so drunk. The man, who was now in her body, knew what he wanted, so he served himself what he knew he wanted, even though the drunken barmaid, in the mans body asked for bitter, but she actually meant "bidder", because previously that day she went to an auction.
