* The phrase consists in the \"counter-request\" not being an absurd request by the second person, but is actually a snarky suggestion asking the first person if they want to up their request. this is a French stock phrase which consists in answering an unreasonable demand by retorting \"do you also want 100 bucks and a Mars bar[[labelnote:For American readers]]Not the candy sold in the US under this name, but a similar treat renamed \"Milky Way\" there[[/labelnote]]?\" (\"\'\'tu veux pas non plus cent balles et un Mars?\'\'\"). This is also a sort of inversion, as the mock suggestion (some money and a candy bar) is relatively mundane. There\'s a cruder variation which literally translates as \"a blowjob and a Mars bar\" (\"\'\'une pipe et un mars\'\'\").

This is not an example from a specific work, but a real life stock phrase. I\'m asking to make sure \"In real life, [language X] has a stock phrase which is an example of the trope: [translation of said stock phrase]\" is considered as a valid example instead of something too generic.
