It was def shitty, yes. She seemed too resistant to take sincere criticism to heart, so as I left hastily, I saw my cottony friend beckoning from the purse, whispering "let me do the talking, maybe she'll get the subtext and not be as obnoxious to her next table." Alas, I listened, and the rest is history.

1. This is upstate NY and I can find nowhere with that high of a price here. I really tried.

People leave filthy napkins, food messes, lord knows what else at their tables. I doubt an unused tampon in a glass put anyone out. But it may have conveyed the subtle message that, next time she's in a pissy mood, best not to argue with her customers and act like they are a-holes for *politely* asking her to correct…

Greg, where ever did I say the tampon was bloody? It was unused, taken from my purse.

Nothing justifies a less-than-average tip? Disagree *shrug*

I wasn't upset she got my order wrong. I was upset that rather than just fix her error she argued with me (and my dining partner) that I ordered what she brought, then neglected to check in the rest of the meal until nonchalantly dropping off the check (on which she may have tried to rip me off, but may have just…

So the horrors of omelet-ordering customers made me think of the ONLY time that I have intentionally left less than a 15% tip — and yes, it involved an omelet.

They've actually been selling snail slime-based facial creams for decades, this is just cutting out the middleman.

Isn't "professional amateur" porn an oxymoron?

No, it's legit GREAT advice, as someone who has suffered her fair share of UTI's, ALL of which have followed sex without immediate post-coital pissing. My new rules are: 1. Clean up down there, especially if you've taken a shit subsequent to your last shower. Baby wipes help. 2. Pee pre-sex if you have to. Then drink…

I never made it to the South Island, actually. Nope haven't tried it yet, you? I was a frequent visitor to the local Gloria Jeans while in NZ, but now I seldom drink coffee!

Couldn't agree more! I was (not strictly but mostly) vegetarian for years prior to my semester in New Zealand. I spent a spring break there WWOOF-ing near Auckland with a very nice couple who raised their own sheep for slaughter. In exchange for my volunteer work on their property tending the horses and garden, I got…

Easy solution to this dude's "no tap water" quandary: Take an empty glass, go to the restroom, turn on faucet, fill, repeat as needed. It's just as potable as what the bartender has, with the added bonus of being free. Don't wanna do this, cuz it makes you look like a cheap-ass who won't spring $2.50 for a bottle…

20 lbs apiece?! Yikes! Can't they make them hollow, or hasn't plastic surgery progressed to incorporating balloon technology? Even better, helium-filled! That would keep them perky and actually help avoid back pain.

"If the father of the unborn child is deceased, the woman...shall sign a notarized affidavit attesting to the fact."

Dear Lilly,

Why is it not just as objectionable to assume there is just one father?

Except that he gave consent expressly to 'whatever' and did not withdraw consent to that broad standard of 'things' someone could potentially do to him.

I'm thinking, probably his parents' basement?

Do you even know what you are arguing for/against anymore? You started off with,
