So. Waiter Rant. Kind of like customers_suck, except it's only one person posting ("Waiter"), and it's usually wank-free. Usually.

The waiter that writes the blog recently started working in a new restaurant, and has become . . . slightly bitter. As a result, he posted first "50 Signs You're Working in a Bad Restaurant," then "50 Signs You're an Asshole Customer." The first doesn't garner much attention, but the second . . .

Four hundred comments later, people are still wanking over:

-Whether it's acceptable to bring your own tea (look for Desert Princess, misspelled as Dessert Princess).
-Whether it's acceptable to leave a tip on a credit card that ends in a weird amount ($2.51 on a tab for $10.49).
-If you should tip on takeout.
-If asking about the music is okay.
-Why saying that you're allergic to an ingredient in order to get it taken out of your food is evil.
-How bitter "Waiter" has become.
-What is a 'normal' tip—fifteen or twenty percent.

Namecalling and accusations of elitism abound, and perhaps 1/4 of replies become non-wanky.

All that my tea requires is a cup of hot water, which is free. I've never met a restaurant that carries high quality green tea (and not any of those wacky green tea + 99 other herbs teas), and that's what I need. It helps you digest food-- I'd assume they'd rather deal with bringing me a cup of hot water than me getting sick all over the table, yes? Can't for the life of me see how bringing tea bags makes someone an "asshole", and if they have to work that hard to find things to complain about, I'd recommend a job in a different field.
