I have only tipped poorly, like 10% and I felt horribly guilty after, when the server was messing stuff up and very unapologetic, like 2 or 3 times. When the food sucks it’s just that the place isn’t good and no fault of the servers. I’ve had excellent service and bad food, but I just let that slide and never go back.

There’s a server underground where stories of bad tipping celebrities are exchanged. For real.

Wife and I watch the show. It’s pretty good, even if driven almost entirely by pathos.

I can’t speak to the show This is Us, or who those characters are, or the finely tuned script that allowed those characters to spend last moments together.

I couldn’t place who it was until near the end. And she was awesome. Hope this is recurring.

The sooner people realize McCarthy is in the top 5 of the funniest people who ever lived ever the better off we’ll all be.

I started a Star Wars marathon before I heard the news about Carrie Fisher.

“Northsplain”

For you, being trapped in a hotel in North Dakota during a blizzard in subzero temperatures will be a story you tell for the rest of your life. For midwesterners, it was Tuesday.
