Reply to LPT: Tip on the subtotal by boomeroni123
"8% will be added to the bill so our servers can earn a living wage and benefits"
That ought to be illegal. A $12 sandwich with a mandatory 8% is a $13 sandwich, anything else is chicanery.
For that matter, all prices should include all unavoidable fees. If I need to pay a title fee to buy the car, put it on the STICKER. If I need to pay local, state, and national sales tax, put it on the SHELF! If I need to pay extra so you can pay your employees, PUT IT IN THE ITEM PRICE!
Other countries do this. Some even have round prices like £5, which means I hand the cashier a £5 note and we're done. No 4.99, 19.99+ tax, fees, and digging through a purse and/or change drawer, DONE!

Arm the cows, make it a fair fight.

I've seen a video of 30-50 feral hogs running through someone's yard.
They're occasionally deadly and always destructive.

Lichtenstein is smaller than Washington, D.C. (160 km2/62mi2 vs 180 km2/68 mi²)

Reply to How do you like that? Man farts during police strip search, given 75 hours unpaid work by zfreakazoidz
Maybe it was the smoking a joint while causing a car crash that got him in trouble and his attitude and actions didn't help.
