That’s just my opinion. Until wages go up I’m going to always give the benefit of the doubt and tip as much as possible. Service would have to be REALLY terrible to go below 20% given the current state of restaurant workers.

It’s similar, but perhaps more devious in nature, than shenanigans.

Fuck you people, 32 isn’t old. I’m 32 and I’m going to live to be 105, so i’m not even a third through this ride yet. Yes you should be upset about it, it’s ridiculous.

Yes, $11.00 would also be acceptable I think if the server had a ‘tude.

Life is too short to calculate tip beyond 20% and rounding up.

Absolutely. Who the fuck steals from a library? In my town the libraries are in such a pitiful situation that they are only open like 2 days a week and there is only a handful of rotating librarians. When shit get so bad that we turned our backs as a society on the goddamn library? Jesus your sister is a dickhead.

Your sister sucks.

Parents who have money. That is how those unicorns are free in the wild.

YES.

Yeah, I’m not going to get butt sore over a $2 discrepancy between a bill if I’ve agreed to split it 50/50, I’m not that much of an asshole.

You and your buddy sound like wonderful, reasonable people who would be a joy to split the check with.

That is what we do, although discretely.

That doesn’t work with these particularly people, they are extremely passive aggressive and will pout the entire meal and be really weird about it if you are direct. It’s just easier to tell the waiter without discussing it, although most people shouldn’t have a problem with your approach.

That is not the situation I am talking about. An established repoire with people you care about is one thing, a pattern of cheap-o chicanery to get a free meal for your kid and half-price fancy appetizers no one else wants is quite another.

I totally disagree, I think people use the “let’s just split the check down the middle thing” to be the cheap asshole. I have in-laws with kids that do this regularly and will trick you into “trying” their dish - ONE BITE and then claiming you “split it” when the check comes, so the bill should be split, even though I…

Desperate for those sweet sweet crowdfunded hate bucks.

No, it would be chunky hairy sadness. Don’t sully the name of pralines.

However, take precautions against lice while you are in there.

I wouldn’t know, clearly this is only a phenomena in which you can relate to, Turnip.

No, turnip, how dare YOU.
