I did keep reading. You make some decent points, but you come off as incredibly arrogant regarding this issue- like beyond belief.

Yeah, I call bullshit. You claim to be a former waiter, but don’t tip and think service staff steals tips from one another.

Haha ok good one. You’re right, tipping has been customary in the us for something like 100 years but people who don’t tip aren’t selfish assholes! Waitstaff just need to sit down with management and sort this little misunderstanding out. I’ll hold my breath for that.

My family’s scared of falling into the stereotype or they’re sick of servers assuming they won’t tip well (and seating us by the kitchen) or something, because they have a habit of overtipping wildly. And I inherited that shit. Like, I start at 25% unless the service is terrible. And I ain’t even got money, man.

Bingo.

Exactly. My paychecks were like this and when I was bussing tables (before I was a waitress) I got 50 cents a table and had to fight the waiters for it. I’ve said it a thousand times and I’ll say it a thousand more: IF YOU CAN’T AFFORD TO TIP, YOU CAN’T AFFORD TO DINE OUT.

I don’t know if everyone has seen a waiter’s paycheck, but it’s not like a normal paycheck.

If anyone in the service industry ever sees a server stealing tips - well, what’s the worst horror movie you’ve ever seen?

My mother visited me recently, at which point I discovered that she thinks it is perfectly okay to leave a 10% tip. I am horrified and trying to figure out how to break it to her gently. Important bits:

That will never happen. If that were to happen you would read about a stabbing at the restaurant the next day’s paper.

Former waiter here. We’re not going to remember you for leaving a tip whether we see it or not (barring something really special). We are definitely going to remember you if you don’t...whether we see it or not. And I haven’t waited tables in probably 15 years, but I swear I could still pick the guy who bailed on his…

Not for us Brits!

Seriously Centipede needs to be on this list. For the lightning effects, the cobra, the tiger, the Debbie Allen-lite choreography and for all us kids on the playground who saw this and said, “Wait, there’s another Jackson sister?!”

I see your million and raise you one gatrillion stars.

How do you do a best/worst list of music videos and not include ...

Oh my God, I would give this a million stars if I could.

You picked that Eddie Murphy video and not this one?

LEAVE DENNIS AND ORAN THE HELL ALONE!!

I want it to be known that I defended the greatness of “Keep On Loving Me” and will til my last breath falls upon this earth.
