Agree about sucking it up as a server. But the same can be applied to the customer. You know that tips are "optional", but you also know what is socially acceptable in this broken system.

The problem with this example is that you don't have a choice to not go to work on a shitty day as a server. You're leaving the establishment shorthanded on little notice and likely putting yourself in danger of being fired.

The domino effect of not tipping is probably the least-considered aspect of the "I shouldn't have to tip" debate. This is why adding an extra buck or two to a normal tip, which might elevate the percentage from 18 to 22%, could help make the server's night better and perpetuate a better attitude for the rest of the…

And when you have a didn't-bring-my-A-game day, does your salary get withheld?

The tipping-mandatory structure may not be optimal, but if it were optional, you'd be paying that extra money for the items on your plate instead. So.. suck it up and welcome to America.

A 10% tip sends a message that service was super shitty. A 0% tip sends a message that you're an asshole.

Nope. Did not watched it.

Wii Fit trainer in Smash Bros?

Went to cross country meets where his kids were running. High schoolers were his heckling training ground.

Sure, enjoyed watching him too. I actually really loved the guy and he was my probably favorite at the time. I hoped he would have a long a storied career, but with hindsight, I realize how undisciplined he was and made the defense worse just as often, if not more often, than better.

I also linked to that list. It says more to Redskins personnel history that he's on that list (which wouldn't exist if it weren't arbitrarily created for the team's anniversary). Sure, he's a "Redskin great," if we have to pick eighty of them. A great player, though? Hardly.

I've read this a couple times over, but I'm not sure what you're getting at here.

April 2000 draft day.

Maybe the C&D was just Snyder's polite way of saying "Hey, we're @redskinS, not @redskin — that would be racist."

I'm tired of fellow Redskin fans idealizing this man. Being called a "[insert team name] Great" is trite anyways when that list looks like this, but fans that remember Lavar as a great player are only idealizing him because of how terrible the rest of the team was at the time. And that one hit on Aikman.

Seems this guy went to the Van Wilder school for public speaking. Ryan Reynolds level of punchable.

Thankful that his parents weren't home during the burglary. This headline could have been something completely different if they had been.

I think Kinja ate my first response, so I apologize if I'm duplicating here:
