tipping

it's a little greasy, and you gotta be careful with the skewers. but man oh man, nobody says my people aren't muy generoso

If you're ever folding something into cute shapes to leave as a tip, it better be money.

if you're a server you might care

well if you're a racist server, sure

every time we get a tipping thread, things devolve into nonsense. can we get a moratorium on being mean, and go back to saying ridiculous made up shit? like, i once went to a restaurant where my sister was a server. i gave her a pack of menthol cigarettes as a tip. she was ripshit. later, at home, i gave her a twenty.

for the record I really was interested in this issue but good job guys

p.s. that didn't really happen. i love her, but i'd never have $20 to give my sister.

frogbs, you may not be aware that tipping threads always turn into hurt feelers, and there's a long history of staying-the-fuck-away from them. see also: threads about race, rape, and anything that some dude named paul from san diego posts on.

i think the problem is, none of us are interested in this issue, unless it's w/r/t calling u racist

i have so many questions about the origami elephants story

it's better in your imagination i'm sure

Someone left me their kid's drawing as a tip once. It had an alien landing on the moon (with a U.S. falg? confusing grey narrative) and was captioned "breakfast was out of this world." I still get mad when I think about that shit.

i'm really surprised that frogbs had to turn to ilx for a discussion on how different races tip -- i would've thought that would've been a hit topic at parties!

i recommend starting this discussion in your office

also, let's be frank on one thing, that on the other hand the Jews are pretty good tippers, you wouldn't think that but it's true

awww

i mean frogbs yer kinda acting like a martyr here, your first statement before you launched into this was "I know you all are gonna label me a racist prick", then it happened and you act surprised.

frogbs there are other places on the internet where you can have this discussion and they will think you are bold and brave for 'telling it like it is'/'not being afraid of political correctness' but everytime you attempt shit like this on ilx people will mock you back to 51.

this is just my controversial opinion but I don't think you're a horrible enough person that you should be permabanned but you def are a slow learner. when you have any other controversial 'un-pc' opinions on things, just post them on reddit or somethingawful or whatever.

i once went to a restaurant where my sister was a server. i gave her a pack of menthol cigarettes as a tip.

haha someone once left me some change and a couple of subway tokens. still not sure whether they mistook them for dimes or whether they meant to leave them. either way i appreciated it

one time we gave a dude like 12 Disney tickets (we'd just got some as compensation for performing). I'm sure d00d was probably mad at first until he realized how much he could score on ebay for those.

(which is generally face value)

fire away

were the origami elephants black

i was only really half-serious with that, i know this forum is really sensitive to this kind of stuff and has the self-righteousness to label people racist for like any reason whatsoever but all these "fuck off and die" comments are a little surprising, especially coming from people who haven't contributed to this thread in like a year and literally have nothing else to say

like, I would think the sb system would prevent this type of crying but I don't know anymore

o i didn't realize its actually "self-righteousness"

didn't realize u had to be an active contributor to the fucken tipping thread to call u out bro

Hi from Australia *waves some money then pockets it*

frogbs i don't think you're like the devil or anything but I mean you act like you didn't know this was gonna happen. this isn't www.warmfuzziesmusictalkboard.com.org

maybe "fuck off and die" is a bit harsh, but if i HAD to pick one ilxor...

also, let's be frank on one thing, that on the other hand the Jews are pretty good tippers, you wouldn't think that but it's true

― frogbs, Monday, June 20, 2011 7:48 PM (16 minutes ago)

so, why wouldn't I/you think Jews are good tippers?

let's be frank

he's seen Woody allen movies

Not to this extent i didn't but i'm a little naive in matters like that. i have no doubt real racists exist I kind of grew up in a place that's desensitized to that as a result of everyone (like our parents) saying how terrible it was for people to hate one another for the color of their skin when we never actually hung out with people like that. I mean when I was in grade school I used to get bullied all the time for being Jewish, I heard pretty much everything you could hear but I'm not going to cry about people discriminating against the Jews because I know it's dishonest when they're really just looking for reasons to pick on anybody. Likewise even for a board like this I'm kinda taken aback by how trigger happy so many people are when there are, like, real racists out there. Basically youre right I should have known better and yeah I realize people are going to whine because of things I've posted in the past, but, still, you know

"real racists exists (probably)"
- frogbs

frogbs i don't think you're like the devil or anything but I mean you act like you didn't know this was gonna happen

i figured i'd catch some shit but people literally telling me to die is always going to be surprising in a place like this

U might not be rocketing up sbans if you didn't keep talking about how people that don't feel like rolling with your "I'm not racist but" troll are crying and whining u ass

heh, this guy is great, hes like l0u1s jagg3r but instead of weird sex shit its weird race shit

xp - what would you call it? i'm not talking about the people who are disagreeing with me

oh, frogbspaws.

Who the hell are you talking about then?

i dont think anyone has been this adept at digging himself deeper since peak-form louis

Who the hell are you talking about then?

me too. also when louis said stupid shit at least he meant it.

xpost most of em probably had done it before today

yeah, louis would never have spent 20 posts hinting that hed heard black people were bad tippers, hed have just said it, over and over, and kept on saying it
