Jon Stewart always gave me a way to work through the anger and frustration and ridiculousness and wrongdoings of politics and people. Whatever awful thing had happened, you could watch him and even though the problem didn't get better, you at least could work through it and just go "Ya, somebody fucking gets it." And

I wouldn't go back to a place that did this to me, but if I was a shitty tipper the the restaurant probably wouldn't care. I'm a 20% tipper anyway so if someone did this to me I'd be livid.

Look, a lot of us who hate it have worked in food service. Fucking with people's food is an asshole move. I'm sorry you don't understand that.

In the places I've worked, it's considered calling a customer out and can get you fired, no matter if you do it politely or not.

You know, if a person wants to tip you two bucks on a 200-buck bill, that's his or her prerogative. Tip isn't mandatory, and if I would have a waiter come up to me and confront me with the size of my tip, I'd ask him to give me the two dollars back. It's a courtesy, not an obligation.

FYI, I'm Dutch and tip well above

The only dating advice my mother ever gave me was "Never date a man who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter." It has served me well.

I couldn't care less if my server is friendly. Just don't be that server who refuses to write down orders, because your memory is so great, and then you screw up my "no tomato" request. Carry a note pad, write down my order, don't be a dick, that's really all I ask and you'll get your 20%.

This is one of the things I just don't understand about douchebag assholes. Why would you go out of your way to anger/piss off/rile up your wait staff? Can they not help themselves — does their entitlement override their common sense? I think that being respectful toward restaurant staff (or any service industry

The ultra entitled asshole says, "Don't worry I have this," and throws down his card. I run the card drop the check and wait. As soon as they leave I pick up the check and look and he's left a $3 tip bringing the bill to $200. My manager asks if I'd like her to talk to them. I say no and follow them out.

A better ending to the last story would have been the owner/manager telling the crusty regular that unless he decided to start treating the staff with respect and tipping adequately, that he should get chicken fingers elsewhere.

They don't just want you to friendly, they want you to be subservient. Power tripping assholes.

They're likely the same people who think telling women in public they're "prettier when they smile" is an act of civil nobility.

if religion got out of the business of politics and morality-legislation (while being tax-free) i would be more on board with this... but the religious influence politics and make policies based on their religion that affect us all - as a non-believer, i don't tolerate that.

First league investigation of improperly deflated balls that didn't involve PED use.

I am a professional writer, and there is no way I could stand to write for Gawker if every time I posted an article I'd have to get shitshow about errors. Sometimes they creep in. I have two editors look at everything I write, and an occasional dropped letter will still make its way through. Just fix it and move on.

I am very invested in my job. Several typos that were almost immediately fixed don't really speak to how invested I am in my job or not. The fact that I have this blogging format downloaded onto every one of my electronic devices to write stories as quickly as possible if/when they break? Maybe a little more so. All

Much like rehab, this show is pointless if the contestants can't/won't/don't continue to maintain their success in a healthy way. As Cracked outlines, this failure is usually what happens.

I believe all of this. I knew there was now way you could healthily lose 50-100 lbs in a few months.

I think sometimes abusive parents have a tendency to believe the lies they've told themselves about how wonderful their children's childhoods were. Particularly if their children turned out to be decent adults.

When I read the headline I thought "oh boy another social media story about cheap tippers, they are out there now, always will be BFD" But I read it anyway. Not only Effing with the guy for the moment (making him drive back and forth, and return the tip) which is certainly bad enough, but then to call the boss and
