Story about LBJ: During a press conference, a reporter called out to LBJ and asked him why the US was still in Vietnam. According to legend, LBJ undid his fly and pulled out his manhood, stating "THIS is why!" Supposedly LBJ was hung like a donkey and named his member "Jumbo."

Equal rights, equal fights. My contribution:

You have a strange understanding of the word "upgrade."

I submit "Caught Up In You" by 38 Special. Fight me, nerds

It's "semper reformanda."

Yep. Often, the only way to de-escalate a situation is a demonstrate a superior level of force. Si vis pacem, para bellum.

I've had that sort of experience. It's almost surreal. Feels kind of odd trying to describe it to people because it's so rare and unexpected.

I feel shame when I'm out with someone and I see they don't tip well, and then I don't spend time with them anymore. This is not indicative of me being better than average, in the world I was raised in this is the average. It's expected. It's not tooting one's own horn to say that one pays a basic, expected societal courtesy that they should have been observing/learning from birth if their guardians had any social grace or semblance of pride.

Gotcha. If gratuity is included in my bill I often don't add anything. I always tip whole numbers so those 10%-15%-20% options are generally useless to me. And as I stated above, I find it acceptable to dock a tip (heavily, even) when service is *****. I then never go back to that establishment. The two places I remember doing that at are now out of business.

Now you're being forced to tip if there's a tip jar? JFC, if you really feel that way about it you're not forced to go there to begin with, exercise that choice.

I've had all sorts of service jobs in my time, including serving and bartending. I understand the differences. I guess I just don't get how a tip jar automatically means the worker was "expecting" or "demanding" a tip. Maybe someone can explain that one to me.

I hardly ever get takeout. I don't even really eat pizza much anymore, to be honest. Everything I get is delivered, sat down for, or prepared in front of me. I got a burrito for takeout from a tiny Mexican grocery a month ago, I think I tipped a dollar just because it's basically a one-woman operation and it amused me that she was like 4'5".

I'm sure the server will enjoy the food that your lecture on how the tipping system has failed puts on their table. I eat out a lot (job hazard). The places I frequent, I get impeccable service. Tell me again how it's not working for me.

I tip everywhere that has a way to receive it. If there's a tip jar or one of those POS systems with the flip around iPad something gets added on top. Ice cream shop, maybe $1 unless I get a cappuccino there too, then $2. Italian deli where the pretty girl makes my sandwich and cashes me out with her college fund tip jar sitting there, $2 plus whatever coins were in my change. If I get water or club soda at the bar, $1 for the bartender per drink even though it's free. Picking up a pizza at my favorite joint and the folks are polite as always, they get a dollar. A few singles left on the golf cart for the guy hosing it down after a round. Tip the hotel concierge or front desk attendant for a dinner reservation/recommendation. If their driving wasn't ridiculous, Uber/Lyft drivers get a minimum $3 tip. 20% BARE MINIMUM if I sit down to eat and be served somewhere unless the service (and really, the service, not the kitchen) really sucks. $5 to the girl who cuts my hair to make it an even 20. A fiver to the delivery guy. All get increased if it's the holidays. Tipping well is a mark of good character and good social graces. People who suck at tipping suck at life. End of story.

What the hell did I just look at? What's the market for this movie, Subaru drivers? Why Hollywood insists on destroying the legacies of good movies is beyond me.

Swank? Duh

I bear witness. @Gugny has understated his case in the title, to his great shame, and I demand answer!

God created man. Samuel Colt made men equal. And that's nice and all, too bad Raygun was a gun-grabbing phony.

Interesting. I've never heard of anybody having that sort of reaction to pineapple before. Kind of sounds like how some people are with cilantro.

Pineapple does not belong anywhere near pizza but bro the hate in this post
