I might leave 30% at a nice restaurant if I got exceptionally great service

Some ball fondling? Taint licking? The fuck kind of service warrants a 30%+ tip?! The majority of servers just take your order, bring you your plate and ask if there's anything else you want (often annoyingly so in a pestering manner). If that's your price then I might as well walk the few meters and grab the shit myself. And if it is the type of place where that isn't possible, then that warrants tipping even less so if that service is straight up mandatory.

I usually tip that at restaurants we frequent. Usually ends up being about $10, and it comes with perks like stronger drinks, better seats outside of the normal rotation, getting our drinks and such as we sit down, etc.

IDK sometimes the server is absolutely brilliant, maybe it’s a holiday
