Am I the only one that’s irritated by Apples whole, less is more, especially when less actually makes things harder and more illogical?

Okay, I know people don’t realize how much sugar is in a lot of juices, but your statement, especially here is just flat wrong.

I really don’t mind if the parent is obviously trying to get the kid under control. Just last Monday I was at the grocery store and a kid in line wanted, of all things, a pack of batteries hanging there in the little section they have at checkout for various things you might forget. She lost her shit completely, and

How can they make the kids fry even smaller? It already holds like five-7 fries as it is. You might as well just get rid of it as a option if you’re going that way

I think she could’ve told her story without using Aziz’s name (or using identifying info about him.) The fact that many men and women experience the same night so differently is worth writing about. It could certainly have used a better editor, too.

It would take a lot to get me to tip 0%, but honestly, if I were in this customer’s place, I’d be tempted too. I guess you can respond the second time with a direct (and maybe slightly curt) “C’mon, just answer the question already,” and with luck the waitress will get the picture. If not, the 0% tip seems fair. How

I’m often in a similar situation. I dine alone when I travel for work so sometimes servers try to strike up conversations with me. I just politely turn the conversation back toward meal-related things. “So, any big plans for the weekend?” “Not really. Hey, could I get some more water, please?” After a couple of tries

Once I met a taxi driver who was totally silent and a calm driver. Best cab ride I ever got. I still have his card and I still call him.

I’m a room service waiter, and it bugs the shit out of me when people order tap water. There’s a faucet and glasses in the room. Are you incapable of figuring this out on your own? I don’t need the extra few pounds of weight on my shoulder that a pitcher of water adds. You want lemon for it? I’ll bring you some lemon,

If autistic children were able to take social cues and instructions that readily, they wouldn’t actually have autism now, would they?

That is just not how it works with kids with autism, especially severe enough to have screaming meltdowns at 12. It’s NOT the result of bad parenting.

Since you don’t appear to have heard of this before, here:

You sound like a dumbass.

As another parent of an autistic child; you clearly have no clue what you’re talking about. Doesn’t work that easily when your kid has ASD.

This is a bad take. If you continue to exhibit poor reading comprehension skills like this, there will be punishment.

Have you not heard of “Autism”?

On the other hand, I remember my days as a busboy in a country club. If you had a table of eight, there was usually some loud mouth who wouldn’t shut up the whole dinner, picked at the food, and everyone was done before he/she had half the dinner eaten.

Ugh tell me about it. At one point I got so self conscious about my “loner-ness”due to people criticizing it that it lead to me seeking therapy because I genuinely thought something was wrong with me after a while.

Now? Fuck it. I eat by myself because I want to, and if I wanna sit by the window and watch the cars go

It’s a small thing, but I really prefer “How many?” so I can reply confidently “Just me!”
