Would you send back food at a restaurant if you didn't think it was very good?

Sure, but I'd be discreet about it. I hate it when people try to show off by bullying food staff.
Total elimination of tipping.
Yes and raise the minimum wage accordingly.
Blue ink?
Aye... the rest of the world has it right on this one.
Awhile ago I was at a bar with some friends and I ordered one drink and I think my girlfriend and her friend ordered one, anyway after I got my drink (a beer, she handed it to me) and was walking away the bartender said "hey you know, it really helps to tip your bartender" and I said "no thanks" and she refused to serve me after, though there were other bars in the club.
Waiters and waitresses also make way way too much money, especially here in Banff where it is absolutely not uncommon for them to bring home $300 or $400+ in a night.
So yes, get rid of it, pay them $15 an hour or something normal and raise food prices 5%.
Thomas Mann?
In America, waitressing is the number one job for single mothers, and very few of them make $4-500 dollars a night, so their children live on their tips.
As to Thomas Mann: he's ok; I'd take Goethe or Sebald over him, tough guy.
Reality television?
What do I care? People are going to be poor and work **** jobs no matter how much money you throw at them. Single mothers also aren't sacred.Quote:

Football for elementary students?
Nay on Ricky Gervais, nay on football for the kiddies.
Video gaming: a sport?
Wow, you're quite the classy, compassionate guy. "Single mothers aren't sacred." My lord, I'm going to have to remember that jewel.Quote:

Bill Maher?
Aye, an esport at least, and they command pretty huge followings and viewership, especially in Korea.
Football shouldn't be in elementary school, no contact sport should be and none should be mandatory. One concussion is too many.
Do you watch/enjoy UFC?
They aren't, and neither are children while we're at it.Quote:
