To the "Ladies" who stole my tips...

To the two "ladies" who stole my $2 in tips--right in front of my face--the joke is on you. I'm sure it'll be a riot when you find out you passed A.I.D.S. onto your baby and watch the sarcoma boils metastasize on your throat. Use those $2 to buy some isopropyl alcohol and wipe the bus seat off after you get up.

To the guy in the tangerine shirt with the burnt cigarillo behind your ear...thank you for kicking a buck into the tip jar! That was extremely thoughtful and it really did make my day. I hope you enjoyed your sandwich and got some choice play from the lady you were talking to on the phone. Its not the dollar as much as the gesture and it meant a lot to me, thanks!

What's with all the sarcasm? I never said that it was your fault for not grabbing the tip and I never said that stealing was OK.

Yeah, I shouldn't have left them in there, maybe next time I'll grab them out with one of my eight arms. I understand its unreasonable to expect people to exercise self control when it comes to petty thievery. You cannot tell a moth not to try and enter the light or tell a dog not to eat what it defecates--why should a young adult be any different? Thanks helper!

Don't leave tips. Problem solved on both ends.

Years ago when I was a kid my dad had to stop someone from stealing the tip he left for the waitress off the table we just got up from. Ever since then we've all made a point of putting cash tips in someone's hand and not just on the table.
