I was hoping it was because they had taken a wrong turn or something and were too illiterate to figure out how to get where they were going. I'll take it anyway. Good riddance!

Last week a friend and I were at a local family run restaurant, which is very low-key burger and fries type of place and the waitresses are usually pretty young. It had been busy because of some sports events in town. When my food came I said, "Can I get some ketchup please?" The waitress, who is in high school,…

I had a lady last night threaten to leave a bad Yelp review because I was refusing to give her a discount even though she kept reiterating that she loved everything...except for me. I just shrugged at her and said that's nice, and moved on. She was furious.

I have already decided something a long time ago: if you're mean to people in a position of service (waitors, bellboys, pedicurists, maids, etc) you are a horrible person. It takes a lot of humility to serve other people in any way, bring them plates, serve them food, wash their feet, clip their dirty toenails, clean…

I worked at a small family owned pizza/Italian restaurant before Yelp was really a thing. My ex was the manager and would shame anyone who was a dick to the staff. Honestly not kow-towing to awful people kept us efficient, kept the overall atmosphere genial which improved everyone's night.

I am completely incapable of understanding the mentality that is required for treating restaurant employees like dirt. When I enter a restaurant, I treat all staff in a very specific way: like they're people. I don't care if someone makes less than you, I don't care if they work a job that you consider "beneath you"…

Fuck yelp. I wouldn't piss on it if it were on fire. And I am nowhere near addled enough to use it to pick a place to eat.

If your hot dog has ketchup on it then it is not a Chicago-style dog. Don't get me wrong, I prefer ketchup, mustard, and relish on my hot dogs but a Chicago dog can't have ketchup on it. Them's the rules.

As someone else mentioned below, unless that steak is chicken-fried, and in that case you're good to go. :)

I'd like to go one step further and advise that when you're at a Cracker Barrel, order whatever it is they should be good at, which is probably not steak. If you order a steak at a Cracker Barrel I'm not sure it's the Cracker Barrel's fault.

Uhh...I must not have been reading closely enough. Casseroles are manna from heaven and I will arm wrestle over it if I have to. I just made one *for a dinner party*. I'm hardcore pro-casserole.

Anything that can make Yelp useless, I'm behind 100% When you can be a shit dick in a restaurant and still get treated like royalty because you might leave a bad Yelp review, there are some problems.

If that's anything like what they serve at Real Chili in Milwaukee, it's fucking delicious.

Got into an argument last week because my husband put mayo in the mashed potatoes he made for us and he didn't say anything until after I'd eaten it.

i don't wear jewelry but my parents pierced my ears when i was little because they're filipino and it's standard in their culture, and i find my "permanent scars" to be NBD

I'm not kidding, more people need to speak out about the injustices of flying coach.

Selena needs to give up her singing career. Her discography was ok at best but she's not a good singer. If you know you're not a good singer, at least come out with catchy music and be a good dancer. Look at Britney Spears. Great performer, iconic songs, not a good singer.

You are definitely the winner in this story because you no longer have that heinous bitch in your life.

holy shit. i do not understand the people that let their families abuse the person they choose to be with. i love and respect my family but my mother is a raving lunatic (that is the nicest way to describe her at times) and my husband is the kindest most patient man i have ever known. just a good good man and he…

oooh! Pick me! A (probably not definitive) list of things my (now ex for obvious reasons) mother in law did before our wedding:
