THIS. I will proudly admit I am a slothful, gluttonous, multiple-other-deadly-sin-committing failure because I routinely order Domino's instead of feeding myself in any of the myriad ways that would be adult-like. But at least when I order Domino's instead of putting on pants and leaving the house, I tip a minimum of

This is the ONLY response that post merits. Well-done.

In my experience, a server who has the temerity to assert her legal rights in the workplace, especially with respect to wages, will usually find herself unemployed in short order. I once had a manager tell me, in talking about this exact issue, that a server who didn't earn enough in tips to make up the regular

I've worked at about half a dozen places too, and it was about 50-50. The bigger, more corporate types tended to do it based on sales; the smaller independent places tended to do it based on tips actually received.

Ugh. What IS it with guys who, when confronted with the likely end of their relationship over their own fuckups, just have to say the most awful thing possible to make sure any feelings you ever had for them are really most sincerely dead?

This is heartbreaking. The only thing that makes it bearable is how completely you are able to own and express your feelings about it, rather than descending into misogynistic rage like I've seen a lot of guys do after a girl fucks them over. I very much doubt you were/are a shitty boyfriend, and as much as it must

I've heard this said before, that carnivores don't taste good, but I don't know. Some of the more popular varieties of fish—tuna, bass, shark—are apex predators, and the other carnivorous species, such as salmon, are no less popular than the herbivores, such as tilapia. Free-range chickens will usually have some grubs

Awww. Shoulda gone with Papi.

Is it me, or do all the good stories involve Red Sox fans?

Ugh, seriously, fuck the people who plan a wedding for when it's going to be impossible for their many out-of-town guests to get a reasonable rate on hotel rooms.

This sounds like the best wedding I've never been to. Damn you for not knowing me and inviting me! ::shakes fist::

That's...adorable and also terrible. Especially since Manny Ramirez is no longer with the Red Sox, and it wasn't exactly a friendly parting. (ETA: they didn't name the other one after Johnny Damon, did they? That would really sting.) Then again, it's a pretty great name for a cat. Every time he shits on the carpet or

Eeeeewwww no, sponges are disgusting.

I have been trying to get my boyfriend to warn me if he's about to sneeze while I'm lying with my head on his chest, because one of these days I swear to God he's gonna break my fucking neck.

I've had zebra and gazelle. They're tasty.

Pigs are definitely smarter than dogs or cats, and they're more human-like in other ways (I've heard firefighters say the smell of burnt human flesh smells unsettlingly like bacon) so yeah. Arbitrary cultural construct.

I did kind of wonder about the safety of the meat.

Debated on bringing this out of the greys, but I see so many extended grey exchanges here I couldn't let that stand. That thing you think is illegal? It's not.

That is beautiful. Nothing ruins the extraordinary convenience of ordering pizza like having to cut it my damn self, LIKE AN ANIMAL. But some people deserve it.

As I only learned recently, some idiot servers hate single diners. Those idiot servers are idiots. You're putting them in no worse a position than a couple who requests a booth (when all the booths are 4-tops) or that happens to come in when all the 2-tops are occupied. You're fine.
