This is just an incredibly convoluted setup to an updog joke, isn't it?

Newsflash, vets with PTSD can be absolute assholes. Because they're not all the same or present the symptoms in the same way. What branch did you serve in, big hero?

I'm super confused about this. How do you know he's on welfare? And what form of welfare? Is he on food stamps? Why was your pizza place accepting food stamps? It if was food stamps, your restaurant was breaking the law. If it wasn't food stamps, it's really none of your goddamned business. And where do you like…

but people need to realize there are selfish people in the world

But ... your hard earned money was coming back to you! You got paid for delivering the pizza, right?

I just wanted to be clear, because you're a little all over the place.

... so your motivation for fucking a guy over who is on welfare, which last time I checked pays out dick-all, was that he didn't give enough of that welfare money to you as a tip? Like, if he'd tipped you "well" you wouldn't have fucked with him, right?

Yup. I bet that 1/10,000 of a cent of yours that bought the guy's pizza really inconvenienced you, and I'm sure in all of your self-righteous anger you really took the time to find out *anything* about the man you are railing against, instead of just talking to townies and making assumptions.

Who the fuck are you to decide where and how this person gets to spend their "welfare money"? Do you even know why he was on assistance? Like maybe he is a vet or disabled or mentally ill - none of which is any of your self-righteous, dim-witted, shit for brains business.

Yeah. You suck. That guy very well might have sucked as well, but you sure as fuck don't get the white hat, cowboy.

Maybe he only ate one meal a day. That was what my brother did when he was cash strapped. Pizza is not very expensive and very filling.

Just to let you know, I earmarked my tax money to pay for this particular guy's pizza, so lay the fuck off. It's paid for, we got it covered.

no. you get a set amount of dollars to do with as you please. if he wants to use his food budget on pizza, so be it. just because he is in need of assistance doesn't mean you get to dictate what he gets to use the welfare money on.

My mother was working in a restaurant when she was 20, and she had previously warned the manager on numerous occasions about serious issues with the smoke hoods, and the air vent. The manager never did anything about it.

Ugh, I get that ALL THE TIME (though it used to be worse when I was a teenager). Maybe that's where some of my annoyance at this friendly server business comes from.

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

I seriously don't get the people who want an "extra friendly" server. Why isn't being pleasantly polite enough? The server is there to get your food, not to be your dinner companion, and it's not possible to muster conversation and extra smiles for every single table every night.

Dude seriously who fucking plays these games.

But it only protects the institutionalized contempt for women. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO CHANGE.

It's telling, still, that the best and most practical idea I heard all weekend is predicated on the worst, most misogynist impulses. From a sorority sister of mine whose actual sister—also a UVA alum—is now a police officer who works with victimized women: "Make it a taboo for frat boys to hook up with blackout…
