    It’s actually pretty funny the mental gymnastics in play here.

    Agreed except it’s not funny, you’re just a bad person.

      You’re the one in support of a fundamentally harmful system, not me.

      You know what would prevent assholes like me from not paying their ‘fair share’? Not tipping.

        Please point to where I ever said I support tipping culture. Because I can show you several comments where I explicitly said I don’t. I’m saying your “protest” is ineffective and selfish.

          The act of tipping itself supports tipping culture. Tipping culture literally couldn’t exist without people tipping and people tipping is what allows this culture to continue.

            You’re not tipping is not helping to end tipping culture you muppet. You don’t give two shits about them. You just don’t want to pay a tip and are hunting for palatable excuses.

              None of what you said refutes my point.

              Tipping culture can only exist in an environment where people tip. Do you actually disagree with that?

              Tipping also doesn’t help end the tipping culture. On the other hand, not tipping is more likely to end the tipping culture, so I’ll just continue not tipping unless I think you deserve it.
