I think that unless a woman has ultra progressive parents or influences in her life, this is EVERY woman's story. The everyday woman who has to figure out who she is, what type of person she wants the world to see, what her boundaries are (and aren't), and how comfortable she is in pushing back on the things society…

I was wondering about Harry's feelings on Tay's new album. It's so good, like I wouldn't be upset if "Style" was about me. I'd be hella proud of that.
All the way to the motherfuckin' top.
Some people go out to eat and take it as an opportunity to go on a power trip. They are "above" the servers (so they think) so they have every right to order them around and treat them like shit. These people are usually the type who look for things to go wrong and every single one of their Yelp reviews is whining…
Yeah, I'm polite and friendly to the people who bring the food but I'm not there to talk to them. I'm there to talk to the people who are with me. My conversations with the servers are limited to asking for food and drink, and saying thank you when it arrives.
You just have to remember that the average person is selfish and self centered. If they don't want to cook/prepare/provide their own meals/anything else and they go out for it, they expect everything to be as they want it, and much like anything else in life, they're never ever going to realize that they're being…
I have several suggestions about how to handle jerkwads like these ... unfortunately, all of them involve actions which could be interpreted by the legal system as 'not strictly kind and helpful' and would undoubtedly result in my immediate dismissal by management. So I'll just offer this .... Grrrrrrrrr!!!
Yeah, what the fuck?!
I have food allergies so eating out at a nice place is a treat and is rare in a city that is NOT allergy-friendly. When I get a good person serving me, I give them a huge tip and enjoy myself. If there are minor problems or miscommunication, I try not to act like an asshole. If things go really…
Exactly. I mean, seriously: fuck these losers. Serving is a damn hard job, and if a server looks like they're trying, I'm more than willing to tip them well. In fact, a server has to be damn near telling me they hate me AND their job for me to significantly cut into my tip (slight exaggeration). All they are are…
Mistreating your server is one of the surest signs that someone is a bad person. I guarantee that every BCO-bad-customer from these stories is a piece of shit to every person in their life.
I was never a server, but I was the "manager" who handled complainers (actually, a cook). I just wore my white jacket and hat out to the dining room and ... carried a French knife. That's how you do it.
I don't understand people who complain to the server about the prices. I tell tables "I didn't make the prices. Feel free to go to our website and complain. Would you like water with extra lemons and sugar?"
If you have an asshole family member who is being mean to a server (or a customer service person) speak the fuck up and tell them that they have no right to speak to a person that way, if said person is being totally nice and helpful. You're just enabling that behavior and that's not okay. Excuses are bullshit; treat…
Welcome back to Behind Closed Ovens, where we take a look at the best and strangest stories from inside the food…
This is infuriating even for FOX. People are not their jobs and it is this kind of bullshit thinking that makes them believe poor, middle class people are stupid and the rich should make all the decisions. Luckily Chrissy Teigen seems like a badass that gives 0 fucks because we have a gun problem in America despite no…
I have a question as to whether or not I'm allowed an opinion and a voice! Submitted for Andrea Tantaros' approval (I'll be waiting quietly in the meantime):
Time is a flat circle!
