If the whole fucking world knows that you just made billions -- BILLIONS -- and you are the most recognized couple in Western culture right now -- don't you think it might cross your mind to leave $20 just as a precaution against people saying that you are cheap.

Fucking Americans ruin everywhere they go by making locals expect tips from all foreigners.

Just stay home and keep your barbaric practices to yourselves

Tipping (or not) ought to be based on what the locals do.

What kind of fucking sociopath makes $20 billion in a week and doesn't leave a TIP on a meal?

The local custom is, about 20% of customers leave a tip. It's optional. If I had become the youngest multibillionaire in world history last week, yeah, I might leave a few bucks.

In America the custom is 100% of customers leave a tip, it's expected... so stiffing the waiter wouldn't be acceptable.

If you go to a reasonable restaurant, and get good service, it is the least you can do. The waiting staff get paid peanuts usually.

Maybe you don't eat in reasonable restaurants?

I'm back. And I am still seriously looking to help a single hen or a couple with a desire for a baby through natural, intimate conception.

Why should the rich pay all the taxes?

Yes, for real and serious.

I am single but would still like to give the gift of life.

Wait until June 11th & look at the new MacBook Pros.

You will notice the difference from a crummy Asus.

Since 1. the honor guard are active duty military who would be paid regardless of what they were doing.

2. the personnel involved are only incurring an opportunity cost. You could argue that this could be spent on some other, more worthy, military purpose like shining boors, buckles or mopping an already clean floor, but I'm not buying it.

3. The cost could be more than offset by setting up a tip jar.

But you're a loser faggot, no one cares what you think.

At least I don't stand around "guarding" a tomb all day.

You do nothing with your life. NOTHING

All you do is bitch and whine.

I do. We all do. Of all the shit that taxes are outright wasted on you choose to bitch about a fallen soldier memorial?


Someone on this thread alrady pointed out that this is NOT where you start cutting.

These guys are already in the Army. They are getting paid whether they do Tomb Guard or not. You don't seem to understand.

To maintain round-the-clock coverage they probably need 8-10 soldiers to cover for sick days, training, vacations, etc.

Cutting 8-10 soldiers from the armed forces sounds like a worthwhile savings to me.
