The tip is not a reflection of service. You're not there to grade the server on their job. You tip a percentage of the bill but spending more doesn't mean they were better. Some places add tip automatically for large groups. That doesn't mean anything except you can't stiff em.

Servers are not peasants dancing for your pennies. The tip is not 'you did good you get a present' or 'you did bad you get punished.' If they made mistakes, communicate like a grown up. Stiffing them on the tip just makes them think you're wack.

Amy Winehouse's 'Rehab' is similar to 'Not Like Us' in that discordance—Rehab sounds upbeat, fun, and dancey while the lyrics say: I'm a problem drug addict and I'm refusing to get help.

It's wild that the #1 song in the country, the song of the year so far, is an upbeat absolute banger club wrecker with lyrics stating 'That real person over there likes kids.' The sound and the message are crazy discordant.

Ugh. No. The tip is not a grade we give to servers. If you have a problem speak to a manager. Use your words.

Touré Bro, spot on. That's exactly how I felt watching Katt's latest Netflix joint. Recall the infamous interview where he asked the audience to 'Name one Tiffany Haddish classic joke.' Seems like we could ask the same about him these days. yahoo.com/entertainment/…

I'm a Gen Xer. I wrote a book about Prince and Gen X (I Would Die 4 U). The penalty for calling me a Boomer is blocking. Goodbye Carter. Also, who are you?

Kendrick recorded 10 Drake disses in one session? Wait, he did TEN songs in one session? That sounds superhuman ?st

I think it's clear now that Kendrick wanted this battle to happen and he wanted it for years as a sort of righteous holy war. (That's what 6:16 is about.) It wasn't FPS or Drake's subliminals that started this. Kendrick's disgust with Drake goes back much further that.

The question is not Kendrick or Drake, that's obvious. The question is what was the best song in this battle Not Like Us or meet the grahams?

Elon says he does not understand the block button. But he's blocking people who criticize Twitter. So he understands the block button when he needs it to protect him from people he doesn't want to hear from but he doesn't understand it when we need it to protect us. What?

Elon hasn't made one valuable change to Twitter. I would think he could do one thing right because all of his ideas can't be wrong but no, all of them have been destructive.
