Learn self control? Idk, I'll occasionally spend slightly more than I intended, but when I go out drinking, I go out drinking. My alcohol limit for a night is in my budget.

[NynJa]

Self control after drinking? This will devolve into a poopdeck related discussion, im out!

[TheDirtyHobo]

I wouldn't say that the person shouldn't be eating somewhere because they didn't tip 30$ to someone who does the same job at the same level of service as an applebees waitress.

Fuck, Church is trying to make the same point I did? I rescind any previous statements and concede all opposing points.

[Churchill]

I think the difference is that I tip, if I eat out, which I don't.

I can understand if someone doesn't tip a lot because they are poor, and don't think they should be ashamed for enjoying a night out.

Y'all could do a lot worse than being me, at least I'm pretty.

[TheDirtyHobo]

You pretty much quoted exactly what I do. $5-10 for myself, regardless of price of meal, but I somehow caught shit for it

[Churchill]

Yea but I'm pretty and people like me

You caught shit for coming off high and mighty and admitting that even if it was a hundred dollar meal on your own, you are only giving them 5-10 bucks.

[TheDirtyHobo]

Excuse me? I never said that.

I didn't mean to come off high and mighty, nor do I really see how I did, but if that's the interpretation people got, that's obviously on me.

[Tyrath]

Excuse me? I never said that.

Fuck the 15-20% thing. $5-10 flat dependent on service quality (for myself, more if more people).

That implies that you wouldn't go above that amount even if just yours cost a lot more.

I quoted your exact post and you say you didn't say that? I didn't know senator Cruz posted on BG

Apparently personal responsibility goes out the window with booze.

I also said I very rarely eat somewhere more than $50 for a meal. I've never been, nor do I have the desire or, honestly, the means to go to a place over $100 a meal. That's one of the few things Airenn got right in her slew of accusations, which is why it's about the only thing I didn't address.

Of course not, you're male. :^)

Whoa
Chill on the double negatives you negative nancy!

Your exact words again were 5-10 dollars regardless of the price of the meal. That means you are tipping that much whether it's a 10 dollar meal, or a hundred dollar meal. You don't get to have it both ways.

If Gordon goddamn Ramsey decided for one day to work out of an Applebees and charged $100 for a steak, you would still tip them $20 (just for yourself, in this scenario)? It's still the same Applebees waiting staff, literally the exact same service, but it's now worth more because you paid more for the food? A certain level of service deserves a certain payment, which is only loosely correlated with the price of the food. Going to a steakhouse ordering a chicken sandwich requires just as much of a server's time as a filet mignon, but will probably cost you half the price. Do they only deserve half of the tip, because it cost you less? If I were go to a fancy $100-per-plate place, I expect some Alfred Pennyworth looking motherfucker to pull my chair out to seat me like a goddamn dainty-ass lady and have moist warm towels to wipe my hands off whenever I want; that's more service and worth more than $10. If it's just some 23 year old taking my order and bringing the food out to me and occasionally refilling glasses, fuck them, they get the same shit as anyone else who does that. And I won't feel bad about it either because paying them $10 is still more than minimum wage.

That is the core of my argument. I'm sorry if it didn't get brought out due to extrapolating a poorly worded opening.

[Melena]

The core of the argument is you are being a cheap bitch and openly admitted to it. 15-20% is considered customary for good to exceptional service. Your whole fucking Gordon Ramsey thing is fucking retarded. When you serve at a high end restaurant, more is expected from you at an Applebee's. You are expected to know what wine pairs with each item on the menu, every ingredient in every item, all possible allergens, and countless other things. Just admit you are a cheap bitch and you got caught in it instead of back peddling like a priest caught with a 7 year old boy

Now for random fail, been sick since Sunday night, slept all day and now it's almost 3 am and I can't sleep.
