If you can’t afford a babysitter then you can’t afford a night out? The wait staff at a non-family restaurant is not there to provide free childcare.

Having can be as hard as you want it to be.

Looks like the commenters on this site are still angry and insane.

Not all establishments require reservations. If you don’t know when people will show up then go to a pub, sports bar, or brewery that can accommodate that behavior.

I love my friends too. Which is why I’d browbeat them into being on time if they were perpetually late to the point where I had to adjust what restaurants we could and couldn’t go to.

Yeah, you’re not being targeting so why would you give a f***?

That’s what people say, but if it’s him then the quality of his trolling has gone down.

I miss Tomato-face (a funny troll from old Gawker).

Again, nobody who’s good at serving with a good job is clamoring for hirer wages.

It’s true, though, he/she/they harasses non-white commenters and try to steer conversations on the Takeout in a vilely racist direction. Sadly, most people here don’t do enough to make it clear that racist behavior is unwelcome.

Get lost, racist.

That is true.

Yeah, I have a hard time believing that servers take home any less than minimum wage. In college I worked a tipped position that made barely above the minimum wage-but it was still better money and less work than retail.

Uber drivers should be tipped the same amount that cab drivers would be tipped.

Here’s a Cook’s Illustrated article with the explanation (and solution!):

I gifted “Of Human Bondage” to my very millennial brother and he loved it! So renewed popularity could be just Family Guy reference away.

Slimy sounds like bad cheese. You still might not like brie, though, not everyone does. I don’t like brie that much, either.

From “Of Human Bondage” by Somerset Maugham:

There is a slight ammonia smell to those cheeses. I think it’s a natural part of the cheese enzyme process but it might become worse and more noticeable as the cheese gets older or if it’s in airtight packaging.

It’s always been cool.
