It never fails to shock me how a tip is demanded in the US. People simply refuse to listen to reason when we (yes, there are others!) tell them that leaving a tip isn’t necessary. Well, I’m hoping for too much here, but if you’re a waiter, here are 5 reasons why I will try my best not to give any money to you and why the reasons for tipping are crappy.
1. You act as if you’re my best friend
Just leave me alone ok? I don’t want to bloody chit chat with you. I want food. FOOD! Get it? It’s a restaurant. I go there to eat. I go because I want either Italian food, Chinese Food or something else which I can’t get in a McDonald’s. So I come to a restaurant to fulfill my cravings for it. I will pay for what I value – food. Not you.
Christ, you offend me – kneeling down next to my table, pretending to like me and chatting as if you’re my best friend when it’s obvious that all you’re after is the tip! I’m not a bloody money bag you know. I will pay the bill which includes the cost of the food, the environment and the salaries of the people involved – nothing more.
The only way to get money out of me that I don’t have to legally pay is by prying it out of my cold dead hands…
Bottom line: I don’t want to know your name, or interact with you for any longer than I have to in order to place my order. As far as I’m concerned, you’re the equivalent of a conveyor belt that brings me my food and a computer into which I input my order. Of course, I won’t be rude. But don’t expect me to interact with you any more than I would with some stranger.

2. You don’t get paid enough
And this is my problem how exactly? It’s astonishing that customers are expected to make up for your employer’s cheapness in not paying you a decent wage. Please include the full cost in everyone’s bill thank you very much. I’ll pay it because I have to and the charge is there for me to see.
What’s really funny here is that no one seems to criticize the employers! All criticism is reserved for non tipping customers instead of the owners of the restaurant for not paying a decent wage. Wtf! Could it possibly be because you guys know you can make much more by tips and under report your income to the IRS?
3. You’ll spit in my food if I don’t tip you?
And I’ll shoot your kid if you don’t give me a million dollars. Seriously, am I even hearing this right? You’re actually using the threat of blackmail to make me pay you? Well as long as you’re openly claiming to be a criminal it’s all right I guess.
Fortunately that’s why I prefer buffets. Listen apart from it being illegal, this shows your poor integrity. But if you spit in someone’s food because they didn’t give you money you didn’t earn, then you’re a loser and deserve to be a waiter for the rest of your life.
4. Bringing me my food isn’t worthy of being paid extra
Did you cook it? Did you invent it? No. You picked it up and brought it to me. While it might not be easy, there are plenty of jobs which are much worse – shop floor workers for example. And I’ve been a shop floor manager, so I know. Face it – compared to other jobs, being a waiter is unskilled. You get paid what the market will think your services are worth. You don’t deserve more for your work over and above what your employer should pay you.
5. Money doesn’t grow on trees
I expect you to be grateful and pray for me at night if I tip you 10%. Be happy I gave you anything at all. I worked for the money in my wallet and by giving you some I didn’t have to, I’m doing you a favor. Learn to remember that when people give you something they don’t need to, it’s a favor. You don’t complain that they didn’t give you more!
By the way, the same thing above applies to all professions that demand tips including those on cruise liners.
So now that you understand why I won’t give you money you don’t deserve, stop with the “oh how could you?” attitude. I can. And I will.
Update: Here’s a rebuttal of the many silly justifications for tipping that people have given in the comments section.
You know how I can always tell when my sister is on her period? My dads dick tastes like blood :/
In reply to $Bill’s son
I say shit about other people because I live in my parents basement and have no friends. I’m 28 and still a virgin. I hate the world because people make fun of me all the time. I kill small animals and worship the devil. I’m a mess and jealous of normal people with friends. I’m also bipolar and can’t hold a job because of my Tourette’s. Salty cock sucking donkey balls please.
In reply to $Bill’s son
All of that is true. My son is a real piece of shit.
In reply to $Bill
And yes, I fuck my children.
In reply to $Bill
Talking about other people the way I do is because I’m jealous they don’t live in their parents basement like I do.
I have no life so I talk shit about others to make myself feel better. I’m a very sad person.
In reply to $Bill’s son
Get off the computer the you little shit. I’m trying to bitch and wine about tipping! God! What else am I going to do? Get a life? No. you’re grounded.
In reply to $Bill
I can’t stop talking about other people because I’m such a loser and I’m mad about living in my mother’s basement. It makes me feel better about my loser self when I make up shit about other people. It’s really embarrassing I’m so pathetic that I have to say that shit about other people I hope the neighbors don’t catch me killing small animals maybe one day I’ll actually find out what a woman’s vagina feels like
In reply to $Bill
I talk shit about what a joke and $bill because I’m jealous they live in a house. I live in my parents damp moldy basement and have no life. I feel better about my shit life when I say nasty shit about others because it makes me feel better my life sucks. I’m not a looser I just suck at life and hate the world. Masturbation is my girlfriend and video games is my sad life. I will talk shit about you to if you don’t tip my drug addicted mom
In reply to $Bill
You know what’s funny, $Bill? The fact that this person likely thinks they’re pissing us off, when really it’s like watching an idiot try to fight their way out of a wet bag. It’s the reason we watch videos like this on the internet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efPy3XIttWs
I think it’s hilarious they have no actual argument on the topic, so resort to ad-hominem responses. It’s like a freaking child being told the facts and responding with, “Oh yeah? Well you’re just a big meanie-head!”
On top of it, they feel the need to come here and have conversations with themselves to do it.
In reply to What a joke
What a joke I enjoyed the video. This person is like a little kid sticking his tongue out at us. It’s hard to get angry with a child that just doesn’t know any better. I actually feel bad for this person. This person’s life must be very sad and unhappy.
In reply to What a joke
Obviously my split personality is getting to me. I just posted like 5 times slamming my own life (not very originally I might add). I’m starting to think that being born with no dick and multiple personalities affects me more than I’d like to admit. On top of all that I just lost my job at Taco Bell again!!!! It’s all good. Gonna go fuck my daughter now. Peace. You’re my only friend what a joke ?
In reply to $Bill
I’m just glad you’re finally being honest. Everyone has known for years now that the reason we come on here and slam other people is because we’re losers that live in our parents basements and never gotten laid. I feel relieved it’s finally out in the open. Maybe we now we can address the fact that we are total sociopath’s that need professional help. I hate myself and my life.
In reply to What a joke
P.s. I raped my nieghbors dog last night.
I went to Red Lobster endless shrimp last night with 4 friends. I don’t know how many times we ordered but we were there for 2 hours.
The waitress looked pretty tired when she brought us the check. On the tip line I wrote get a better job. I paid for the food it’s her job to bring it to me. Tipping her would just be a waste of my money.
Red Lobster? Come on $Bill aka what a joke aka Bhagwad (yes everyone knows you’re the same person), if you’re going to lie at least make it a nice restaurant!
In reply to B Rad
All three of us have different writing styles dumbass. Why are you even here? Do you have anything relevant to say? Or do you want to just bitch like a moron?
In reply to $Bill
Besides, I was on the boulevard all night sucking strangers dicks for pocket change. Not one of the tipped me so I’m not tipping anyone! Ever! At least I went home with a belly full of semen. Yummy
In reply to $Bill
Actually it’s funny you say that because they’re identical. At least you finally admit you’re a cock sucking faggot!
In reply to B Rad
Just kidding. It’s obvious I made that comment. I know, it’s funny coming out on a site like this, but yesterday was coming out day and I felt bad I couldn’t tell my parents yet.
In reply to B Rad
Can I please blow you? Pretty please?!! No charge
In reply to $Bill
The sad fact is I have no friends. I come here and pretend to be different people and talk to myself. I just wish somebody would talk to me, but honestly I’m a homophobic, racist loser who is far worse a person than the people I try to mock, and nobody would give me the time of day.
Honestly, I admit I have no argument against their points, but the only way I get any attention from anyone is by constantly posting stupidity in the hopes somebody will respond.
I hate my life in my parents’ basement, but I’m just too much of a coward to kill myself.
In reply to B Rad
I agree fully. I’ve been coming on here for years pretending to be different people, including servers just so I could argue with myself. I post as what a joke in a sad attempt to get someone to agree with me. I have no valid points I just like to insult people and post the same link over and over knowing that it’s bullshit. And I’m racist like you, I was just calling black people monkeys the other day. I’m pedophile and a homosexual and everyone I’ve ever met hates me. I’m an angry depressed sad little man with no dick. Now seriously put your cock in my mouth!
In reply to $Bill
Oh, you know that’s not true, $Bill. First off, you make very valid points about how servers choose their line of work, and get paid the minimum wage. Since you have experience as a server, you define have it on authority. Second, you always make sure you provide the link proving your point about the wages servers earn. Also, it’s obvious the people posting here are all different. You each have clearly different perspectives, despite sharing the same opinion. You also approach your arguments differently.
Honestly, I just wish I were like you guys. You’re successful with so many friends. That’s why I imitate you! I’m jealous that I’ll never be as good as any of you.
In reply to B Rad
I’m not successful and don’t have friends. That’s why I never do anything but post bulshit on here. And obviously I’ve never worked in the service industry. I’m so pathetic even my lies don’t make sense. What high end restaurant would a 16 year old considering you cant pour alcohol until you’re 21 and can’t even serve it until you’re 18. Why would anyone hire a server that can’t bring cocktails to a table. Since I love posting links here is one proving it.
http://www.alcoholproblemsandsolutions.org/StateAndLocalLaws/1133835601.html
No I just lie about everything because this is the only place I can talk to people the way I do without getting my face punched in. I’m poor pathetic and lonely.
In reply to $Bill
Oh… my bad. You’re right you’re a piece of shit.
In reply to B Rad
Now shove your fat cock down my throat!!
In reply to $Bill
You’re so silly, $Bill! I know you’re just saying that so I don’t feel bad.
You’re the greatest! That’s why I made this forum dedicated to you!

In reply to B Rad
I be coming up in here to tell you all I work hard for them tips. Brad you be stupid saying so much shit dam you be frontin. You and your boy be saying so much nasty shit about others cause you want to be them.
My weaves aint free I need tips to pay my mother fucking bills. Yall need to be tipping.
In reply to La Tisha
I can’t I’m poor, and on parole for being a pedophile. My favorite restaurants are within 100 yards of a school. Fuck me right?
In reply to $Bill
I am a waitress and I wanted to post a comment about tipping. There is so much childish shit going on here I’m not going to bother.
In reply to Shelby
Yeah don’t bother. I’m too much of a douche bag. I’d just insult you and tell a bunch of lies about my life to try cover up the fact that I have no dick.
I never tip and I am proud of that. Restaurant prices are high enough as they are. I’m not gonna give the waitress more money. She doesn’t deserve it and it is her job.
In reply to Amy
Tipping is optional. Just like being a waiter or waitress is a poor job choice.
In reply to Amy
Don’t get me wrong. We all make poor choices. Take me for example, last night I gave a blowjob to a retarded guy behind Jack In The Box. I didn’t make him wear a condom and now I have a scorching case of herpes. THANKS A LOT DAD!!!
In reply to $Bill
I’m actually flattered you go out if your way to say demeaning things about me.
I know you are a very jealous person and act out the way you do. It’s ok we all understand it must be really hard to live in other people’s shadows.
I actually feel really sorry for you. I know your life is unsatisfactory and miserable.
Maybe one day your life will improve if you move out of your moms trailer, Clean yourself up and get a job you can be proud of.
In reply to $Bill
Ps I have no dick.
When I go to a restaurant, I expect the waitress to do her job. Her job is to be my servant until the time I leave. My bill came to $104 plus tax. Under suggested gratuity the restaurant had the nerve to write $20. I had a few glasses of wine appetizers the meal and dessert. As far as I’m concerned the restaurant should be happy I spent my money with them. There is no way I’m leaving a $20 tip for the waitress. As a matter of fact I left nothing because her job is to serve me. That is what she was hired for. As I was leaving the waitress asked me if anything was wrong? I said what do you mean? She said you left me no tip. I asked to speak to the manager. I told him the waitress interrupted my private conversation to discuss her tip He apologized to me and gave me a $50 gift certificate to come back. I can’t believe she thought it was OK to interrupt my private telephone conversation after my meal was over! I bet she’ll never do that again.
In reply to Kevin
That was me⬆️⬆️⬆️
Creating fake posts again…obviously.
In reply to Kevin
When I was in Las Vegas I dined at Bar Masa. The waitress was rude to me when I left no tip. The entire meal was on the house and the manager made the waitress apologize to me.
I bet she didn’t feel so entitled to a tip after the manager told her that her services were no longer needed and that her behavior was unacceptable.
In reply to $Bill
I’m a compulsive liar and that never happened. I’ve never been to Vegas, I’ve never been anywhere. I’m too poor. Also I was sodimized by a horse last night.
In reply to $Bill
Should I call you mini $bill? You follow me everywhere, and go out of your way to post things about me that have nothing to do with the topic of this website.
I am flattered you are so jealous of me. You follow me around like a little puppy dog. I’m not mad at you, but I do feel very sorry for you.
In reply to $Bill
I wish I was half the man my mother is.
In reply to $Bill
It’s pretty clear that you must be pretty hot, peevish and defeated to have to mock $Bill because you disagree w/ his comment and have no argument to refute the anti-tipping sides claims.
I hope you waiters and waitresses realize that your behavior throughout this blog has only shown your true nature’s and reinforced the argument that you guys don’t deserve tips, and that you’re only hurting yourselves and making yourselves look really bad
Just finished eating all you can eat shrimp at Red Lobster. I don’t recommend it, tasted like crap.
Anywho we got the waitress to bring us refills faster by talking about a large tip we were going to leave her. It was a good idea because we were not even finished and she was bringing us the next order of shrimp. The four of us ordered between 14 to 20 times.
When she brought the check we told her she was great. On the tip line I wrote go to college if you don’t want to be poor. Tipping is for suckers!!!
In reply to David
It’s so funny how all these stories are almost identical. It’s almost like it’s the same person writing them. Oh that’s right, it is.
In reply to Go Cubs
You are a troll. The Cubs suck big time.
In reply to David
You’re the troll my friend. Making up bullshit stories and not even having the creativity to make them the least bit different? Tisk tisk.
CUBS IN 6!!!!!
In reply to Go Cubs
I went to a gross seafood restaurant and shared my experience. No bullshit about it. You coming up on here and telling me I’m making shit up definitely makes you a troll. Nothing creative about it. Cubs will always suck.
In reply to David
Too bad that story has aleredy been on here like 4 times under different names. Creating fake names and fake stories, and I’m the troll? Yeah ok.
In reply to Go Cubs
Did you ever stop to think never ending shrimp at Red Lobster is a pretty popular event, and I am not the only person that went to it?
Telling me that I’m making this stuff up is pointless and counterproductive to the topic of this website. I obviously don’t like to tip that’s why I’m here. The big question is why are you here troll?
In reply to David
To point out that one or two people are making all the posts cuz you’re pathetic losers with nothing else to do.
In reply to Go Cubs
Except all you’re doing is making yourself out to be a moron because you can’t tell the difference between commenters when there is a clear difference in grammatical usage and mannerisms, not to mention making everyone who doesn’t agree look like idiots by acting like a child instead of trying to make thought out, intelligent arguments.
But well done on making us look better than you.
In reply to What a joke
What a joke he reminds me of the little kid analogy you were telling me about. Even after the little boy was explained all the facts; instead of just accepting the truth he says well you’re a meanie head!
In reply to Go Cubs
David was correct. You are a troll. Apparently you don’t seem to have anything better to do either.
In reply to $Bill
Oh! How weird $Bill happened to jump in! Lol thanks for proving my point. It’s so sad that you think you’re fooling anyone. And is calling me a troll supposed to offend me? I’m absolutely trolling. Trolling the troll.
In reply to Go Cubs
Doofus, we all have the same email alerts you do (unless you just constantly check the site?), so when one comments we join in if we want to throw in our two cents (or not, given the topic).
In reply to Go Cubs
Oh!!! And what a joke! Didn’t even see that. Oh my god you’re pathetic!!! Lol. I’m fucking dying right now. Holly shit you’re pathetic! LMFAO
In reply to Go Cubs
Yeah, sure kid. We’re the pathetic ones.
In reply to What a joke
Pathetic ONE!
In reply to Go Cubs
Whatever you have to tell yourself to sleep at night, kid.
In reply to What a joke
Look at you! Haha you literally have NOTHING else to do. I almost feel bad for you, but it’s more funny than anything. Enjoy your pathetic internet excistance. Just remember we’re all laughing at you.
In reply to Go Cubs
Ok ok, I admit it. We are all the person. I’m a fat lonely 47 year old virgin (unless you count my twelve birthday when my daddy and uncle tag teamed me). This is all I have to try and feel any kind of power. No one respects me, not my parents, not my co workers at Arby’s, no one! I’m a poor pathetic loser and I come on here to pretend to be rich with my pretend friends. Please stop pointing it out. It truly is all I have.
In reply to What a joke
Haha, nowhere near 47, kiddo.
All these references to molestation… Does your daddy touch you, Go Cubs? Is that your issue? I mean, you clearly don’t work because even we don’t have time to be on here as much as you are, despite our more relaxed jobs.
Anyway, thanks again for making servers and pro-tippers look like childish idiots. You mentioned laughing earlier, but do you realize that’s all we do at your posts? All you’re doing is proving us right by demonstrating how childish you are. You have absolutely no argument, so this is all you can resort to. Hell, I think it’s the only reason any of us respond to you – we know you’ll just keep acting like an idiot and destroying any credibility servers amd tippers could have.
So, yeah, thanks once more. You’re making it easy for us.
In reply to What a joke
Isn’t creepy how I have this weird dialogue with myself? I clearly need mental help. Unfortunately Arby’s doesn’t offer health care. Oh well. And so what I had an all male threesome with my dad? It was cool.
In reply to What a joke
Yeah, Go Cubs, clearly I’m the one with issues haha You’ve actually replied to your own comments and had entire conversations with yourself as if you’re playing make believe, but have no friends to be the other characters.
And again with the homophobic mockery? Just saying – http://www.livescience.com/19563-homophobia-hidden-homosexuals.html
In reply to What a joke
…and I should know I’m a flaming homo. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, we…I mean I LOVE THE COCK!
In reply to What a joke
Silly Cubby! Again with the homophobia? I’ve already posted studies showing it’s a sign of latent homosexuality.
Either way, I do like your continued posts. As I pointed out – all you’re doing is proving us right, so thanks again!
Couldn’t agree more w/ this blog and topic, and especially What a joke, $Bill, NoTipSkip and others that have so thoroughly crushed any opposing argument to tipping that no one on the pro-tipping side has any argument left.
But I’ll admit that I do tip ONLY when I frequent a particular restaurant or barber, as I don’t trust what will happen if I don’t tip (having my food spat in or receiving a bad cut and essentially out of. A barber)
I’m firmly in the no-tipping camp, but I don’t see how other non-tippers can go back to the same restaurants where you didn’t tip and not be afraid your food isn’t contaminated??
In reply to Nacho Fren
Thank you for the compliments I appreciate it. Going back to the same restaurant after not tipping is never really a problem. Because of the unskilled nature of the job, turnover rate is usually very high. Nobody is going to mess with your food so don’t worry about that.
Restaurants require repeat customers to survive. Waiters and waitresses are a dime a dozen.
In reply to $Bill
Yeah, I don’t go or order out to eat all too often anyways, so what you’re saying makes sense. I just worry about certain Mom-N-Pop establishments that are run by the same people, but even then I’ll just have to start carrying cash again so I can avoid that damn tipping option when I pay by plastic.
It really is just hiLARIOUS how these servers act like their independent contractors that aren’t employees of the restaurant, that you “hired” them and that you chose to “hire” them instead of getting your own shit— like we really have a fucking choice!? They also act like they’re doing you a favor, just like how these pizza delivery bozos act like they’re doing you a favor by delivering you your pizza. I actually had a guy stand there and look at the receipt after I wrote my tip and total down, and nodded in agreement– I mean just the arrogance and entitlement is too much.
I just wonder why none of the waitresses have yet to say: “for you people that don’t like/don’t want to tip, just stay home!” Or “I wish there was a no-tipping section so that you assholes that don’t like to tip can just sit there! JEEZ!” The fact that these jackasses have never said these things just obviously shows that they know that they’re extorting tips and that people really don’t enjoy tipping and just do it because of either fear of judgment from their date/company, or mostly because they’re afraid of their food being contaminated or receiving sloppy service should they return to the restaurant.
This is why American waiters and waitresses are the lowest forms of life on planet Earth. This is why bums on the street are more respectable than servers, because bums realize that they aren’t entitled to your money, and have swallowed their pride and know they have to ask, even grovel for your money that you don’t owe them. Servers are just glorified bums that hide behind the job title of waitress because they have too much pride to ask for a handout, and are crooks and cowards hiding behind this job title because it’s “expected” to just have money thrown at you w/o having to sacrifice your pride and dignity like the panhandlers and street walkers
I wish somebody WOULD spit in/do something to my food because I didn’t tip; I have a belt w/ a large belt buckle and wouldn’t mind catching a charge if it meant DEEP, permanent physical and mental disabilities for that evil server
In reply to Nacho Fren
Do not attack or assault a waiter if he tampers with your food. Better yet sue him. An Applebee’s waiter served a drink that was tampered with by a waiter. He spit in the drink. He was sentenced to prison I don’t remember for how long.
The best part is that a civil suit was brought against the restaurant. The award amount issued remained confidential because of a non-disclosure agreement.
The victim did a interview with a local news channel. He said he was not allowed to discuss the award. He did however say he bought a $300,000 home. Previously he was living in an apartment and had no money before the award. Hopefully he saved some money for the future.
To wrap it up: The waiter received a felony conviction. The restaurant has a ruined reputation, and the business suffered a huge financial loss.
In reply to $Bill
When you mention that kind of gwop, it makes it really intriguing to not have to give up at least 4/5 of that if I were to cop a felonious assault. Of course the best argument is when you say he’s a convicted felon– his life is ruined!!
It makes it even more tempting when I hear about cases like #1 on this list where a guy almost caught 20 years: http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2012/09/top-10-fascinating-cases-of-food-tampering-2467224.html
I think if they were to create a show called “Bait Server” or something like that (akin to Bait Car), where non-tippers and/or even rude clientele were immediate repeat diners (before a waitress turnover) to a restaurant, and secret cameras would watch the waitresses w/ the food to see if they would tamper with it, that that would be a hit show, and really help to expose more people to how grimy and base wait staff are and help to get more folks not to tip and to not frequent the dining establishments as much, which would mean less pity money for these demons (sorry for the run-on sentence)
As a bonus hell, maybe the cameras would even catch some of these cowards talking about diners behind their backs. It would definitely help CourTV out, as that channel hasn’t been decent in almost 10 years. Hell, even have these secret customers snap their fingers at the waitresses, LOL!

Cubby, you’re so ridiculous. Nice to know how much you need to pretend to be us, though. I mean, it’s not like you could possibly think anyone would believe you’re us, so honestly the only reason to do it is because you honestly support us. After all, as I’ve pointed out all you’re doing is making anyone who doesn’t agree look childish.

And I’m not sure if anyone else has noticed that these Uber drivers are the exact same evil brats that servers are, just on wheels. These drivers think that they are entitled to tips and preemptively half-arse their jobs (for instance refusing to try to locate housing numbers and instead just sit at the point where the GPS trail ended) because of their low pay. And some will even reduce your rider rating simply because you didn’t tip, or because they had trouble finding you (as if either of these things are the riders problem or responsibility).
And this ironically is their argument for why they should be tipped. They actually try to turn it around on the clients and call them entitled for expecting “five-star service for one-star rates” i.e. expecting goood service because they get paid so low, the proverbial you get what you pay for. I didn’t thin there was a lower life-form that servers, but Uber drivers are giving them a serious run for their money…
In reply to Nacho Fren
I’m glad they don’t have Uber around where I live. At least you can reduce their rating. Uber will deactivate them for low ratings and poor comments, and people usually post their poor experiences more often than their good ones.
In reply to What a joke
I’m also glad that I’m so delusional that I actually think people will believe that all these posts aren’t from the same person. I even named all my aliases for fuck sake!!! God my life is empty. My lack of money, friends, a girlfriend, or a dick are clouding my judgment.
In reply to What a joke
Also I love the cock!
In reply to What a joke
lol You crack me up, kid. What are you, like 14 years old or something? Mommy’s a server because daddy’s a deadbeat? Based on the kinda stuff you come up with here, I’m guessing daddy touches you while mommy’s off blowing guys for tips (based on the repeated references to molestation), but secretly you kinda like it (based on the continued homophobia, according to science).
Seriously, though, people with even an average level IQ can spot differences in the grammar alone, let alone the nuances of linguistic mannerisms. Even the attitudes we convey are different, even if the opinion is the same:
I take the time to write thought out responses (sometimes quoting people I’m responding to, if it’s long, so I can respond to each piece individually), and post a lot of links backing what I say. I’m generally analytical.
$Bill tends to be very brief and direct, and doesn’t usually post links except for the one about how tipped people get minimum wage (which we all link because apparently people are too blind to see it). He’s considerably less patient with people than I tend to be – he even had a good laugh the first time I lost my patience with somebody and went off on them.
But whatever. Like I’ve said, kid: whatever you need to believe to get to sleep at night. Meanwhile the world keeps turning and working to abolish tipping, while you sit here and rant as if it’s only a handful of people who believe it’s BS.
In reply to What a joke
What a joke, you are a eloquent speaker, with a very generous amount of patients and kindness. Given enough stupidity even you lose your patience. When you unleash that rage I get out-of-the-way.
These people don’t know how to deal with our superior intellect and financial standing. So they resort to crude tactics and name calling. Remember how we talked about the little kid that gets flustered so he calls you a meanie head?
Looking at his ridiculous responses. I would say the little kid is back throwing a tantrum with a hissy fit mixed in. What he writes is not even funny it is just sad.

Yeah and it’s weird that Wes ALLWAYS comment within minutes of each other. I’m not doing a good job am I. Gonna go blow my daddy now.

It’s adorable how you can’t comprehend simple matters, Cubby! I mean, I’ve already pointed out we all get the same email alerts. Why would it be shocking that, getting the same alerts at the same time, we decide to respond at around the same time? Or, hey, respond to a particular message we want to respond to when it arrives? Do you imagine $Bill is going to somehow respond to a comment I make BEFORE it happens? That would be impossible.
And that’s despite the fact that you consider almost half an hour to be “within minutes,” let alone the hours between other messages.
But like I said, whatever you gotta tell yourself, kiddo.

Wow! I’m stupid. That last coment didn’t even make sense to me. I gotta go now, don’t want to be late for my first day at pet smart. I’m the senior VP of kitty litter! Now I’ll get the respect I….I mean we deserve.

My mom was a prostitute when I was a kid. You know what they called her on the street? Mrs. PAC Man. You know why? Cuz for a quarter that bitch gobbled up balls till she died!
In reply to What a joke
Funny, Cubby! I only wish my mom were a prostitute, maybe we wouldn’t have been so damn poor all the time.

Isn’t it interesting how hard I’m trying to explain this? One would think if we weren’t all the same I’d just ignore it. What can I say? I’m mentally retarded.
Took me 2.5+ months to get through this blog, but I’m glad I did, very entertaining read. Glad this thread is still going strong. Folks talked about the demeanor/tone put forth by Bhagwad and other anti-tippers, however when you consider that most of the comments here are angry, bitter random insults I’d say it’s more than fair– if there even was really a “tone” at all. Like I said before though, ironically it’s the waiters/waitresses themSELVES who’ve made the “best” arguments as to why they don’t deserve tips
A couple of posts I really enjoyed was that one post where a commenter said that when a waitress followed him to his car and asked if everything was alright, he said “it was until you came out here to bother me” LOL! I’m gonna start doing that should that ever happen. And I know I’ve already given him praise, but I just can’t give enough love to What a joke’s post when he mentions about policemen, firemen, the people who make our clothes, cashiers and just about everybody imaginable holding out their hands expecting a tip for doing their job well. If nothing else has, THAT really puts tipping into perspective; if that doesn’t illustrate for you the extortion scam known as tipping, calling you a stupid fucking sheeple would be too kind…
Another post that really crushed this argument’s was Malek’s back on page 104, let me quote:
“I didn’t ask you if you tip, I asked that if you as a regular or potential new customer to a establishment (whatever the type) expect or not a good and proper attention, and/or high quality on the product/service you’re acquiring or going to acquire. That was the question. if you tip or not, that’s your problem alone.
And It’s not about if you expect or not something from a person either. Do you expect it from the place, as a whole?
I ask because you (and pretty much everyone else) make it sound like good service it’s optional and pretty much conditioned (next time you visit) to an additional payment, aka the tip.
I mean, how does this work? we pay for mediocre attention/service, and then upgrade to premium by paying a tip/gratuity? is that it?
I just want to understand the logic behind all of this, because to me, it makes no sense that people in general are socially and morally burdened to reward a person for simply doing the job they were hired to do… I don’t understand why its a “common courtesy” as you put it. after all, isn’t in the establishment best interest to attend to its customers in the best way possible? “

I literally have no life so I went through and read almost 10 years of comments? God a pathetic cock sucker! It almost would have been better to just ADMIT that we’re all the same person, but no. I’m sticking to my guns. Ima a total fag!
In reply to Nacho Fren
You have no life so you mock other people because you have no words of your own. What you do it’s not funny it is just very pathetic for you. You make yourself look very foolish.
Now I’m waiting for you to mock me since you have no real life of your own.
In reply to $Bill
Blah blah blah.

I usually go out to eat twice a week and spend an average of $120 for the week. 20% tip for that bill would be $24. So for the entire year 52 weeks x $24 is a grand total of $1248
I just ordered a brandnew Apple MacBook Pro. Because I don’t tip I will put that money towards my new laptop. A $24 weekly tip for being a food jockey is a crock of shit.
In reply to Gregory
Good for you! The waitress would just spend the money on alcohol, tobacco and drugs anyways.
In reply to $Bill
Once again, totally obvious I’m creating fake posts and responding to them. I have NOTHING better to do. By the way, my wife’s had more dicks in her than a urinal at Madisson Square Garden!
In reply to $Bill
Whatever you say, Cubby lol
In reply to What a joke
How weird that I replied to that? It’s almost like I wrote it….oh that’s right I did. My mom’s had more black bodies on her than the hood of an Oakland cop car.
In reply to What a joke
Whatever you say, Cubby lol
In reply to What a joke
I think Cubby is sad he lives in his parents basement. Cubby reminds me of a little kid that is jealous he never gets included. He lashes out at us because he has no adult skills to express his thoughts..
In reply to $Bill
Also I STILL have no dick.
In reply to $Bill
Cubby, that’s too bad about you having no dick. Is it because you’re so obese that your mons pubis covers it? Were you in some horrible accident? Were you born without it?
In reply to What a joke
Cubby is what I call you when we fuck each other in the ass. Remember?
In reply to What a joke
If you say so, Cubby lol
In reply to What a joke
Ooh yeah! You make my pathetic excuse for a dick hard when you say that. Say it again
In reply to $Bill
Whatever you say, Cubby! lol
In reply to What a joke
I think I just came! Either that or I popped a zit where dick should be. Hard to tell ?
In reply to $Bill
Good for you, Cubby, I guess?
In reply to What a joke
I’m too obese to masturbate myself. My mom will hook me up when she gets home from a long night of turning tricks.
In reply to What a joke
That’s unfortunate, Cubby, Good to know we were right about your mom, though. Nice of you to admit it.
In reply to What a joke
I blow my daddy for skittles.
In reply to What a joke
That’s unfortunate, Cubby, you can just go to the store and buy them.
In reply to What a joke
I masturbate to Sesame Street.
In reply to What a joke
….and Dr. Phill. He’s so hot! Reminds me of dad when he fucks me in the ass.
