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.

Yep, that's the Red Hat Society spirit.

I found the entire poem here after I posted that scrap.

This story turned up in a UK newspaper a few weeks ago:
old

I want to be this lady when I get old. Though I imagine I shall be far too busy being a crazy cat lady & yelling at the damn kids to get off my lawn.

Given that I'm planning to be a professor, I'll have the luxury of going loudly and flamboyantlly insane without the risk of getting fired.

...as soon as I have tenure, at least. In any case, screw this "live fast, die young" garbage; I plan to live a long time and take advantage of my age.

In short: first I want to be young and vivacious; then I want to be middle-aged and rich; then I want to be old, and annoy people by pretending to be deaf.
