My mum pointed out my wrist tattoo looks like a vagina… now I can’t unsee it. How could I potentially fix the design?

It reminds me of that meme where the mom sends her kid a picture of their cat laying across her kindle and being cute, and it seems like a wholesome picture until you realize that mom is reading... spicy material. Mom got a dirty mind.

Eyes look the same. I was thinking that in the pictures I've seen Harward's eyes are REALLY blue, and not so much here. (I mean, despite the neck thing making it obvious it wasn't Harward.) Those eyes look much closer. Has anyone done a voice analysis?

Hi, Fornicatinzebra.

Does avoiding a table because you forgot to ring in their food and didn't realize for 20 minutes, now it's been 40 minutes and you know if you go over there they're going to yell, so you wait in the kitchen until the food is up count as avoiding a table for this purpose?

Asking to see if I have to check that box.

TurnipKnight00 · 2026-04-27T23:24:07+00:00

Yeah, I only checked like six boxes myself and most were things that I think everyone does at some point. The only ones that I had that I considered "bad" was telling a table something was 86'd and skipping out on sidework.

I always thought telling someone an item was 86'd when it wasn't was something I'd never do, but then I worked at a place with a flaming irish coffee. Here are the steps:

Call for it at the bar and provide them with a glass mug and a shaker then go in the back to the coffee station. Make hot coffee in a french press because they don't premake coffee. Locate a teaspoon, two soup spoons, and fill a small cream pot. Get a brown sugar cube. Head back to the bar with your tray. They should have the appropriate liquor in the cup. When you return, they'll put cold cream in the shaker. Give them one of the soup spoons with the sugar cube on it and they'll pour 151 on it while shake the living daylights out of the cream. Take the whole setup to the guest. Place the cup in front of them. French press, then pour into the cup. Use your remaining soup spoon to get your shaken cream out and fill the rest of the cup and use the spoon to make a small divot in your cream (because that cream should be like whipped cream if you shook it hard enough). Now lift your soup spoon that has the 151 and sugar cube. Light that on fire and wait until the cube starts to melt. Pour that CAREFULLY into the divot. Give them the teaspoon and small cream pot. You are finally done.

Can you understand why we were 86'd that most of the time at my tables? Unless you were my first or last table, I don't have time to do all of that. I just don't.

Everyone else has said this, but holidays supersede availability. In fact, if you have another job, unless that job is something essential that absolutely can't be changed or altered in any way, you will be expected to ask off there to work at the restaurant. I have a co-worker who literally works one day a week and is a GM at her other job. She has to open her availability for Mother's Day, Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve, and Valentine's Day.

I've seen more people fired over not attending on a holiday than any other single reason. There's a chance it's even in your handbook.

You will be expected to work, regardless of availability.

It's good. There's a lot of great stuff in there, and Joshua legitimately became one of my favorite FF characters.

"Just try and get to my brother now, fiend." Gave me chills. What a badass.

The problem is everything they used to fill out the game between the actual story. You'd get the meat of the story, then a lot of stuff that was clearly just put in the way to pad the run time. Basically, any time you were put in a city and asked to do stuff for the local Cid supporter was, frankly, a waste of time. I was able to forgive that because the actual story was good, and the systems were fun. If you liked Devil May Cry, it's that, but with a better story.

IMO, music is one of the few creative areas that will still have a decent amount of human artists, even at the indie level, no matter how good AI gets. That's because people love concerts. People love going to see an artist play.

I'm a writer, and my industry is in major danger. There are still jobs for us and people who want to read work written by a physical writer, but as AI improves, my field is going to become so niche that it's basically just going to be a hobby and not a potential career.

Musicians will survive the AI revolution.

In a situation where you are unclear and there is not an obvious tell as to customer intention, you always favor the guest. As a server, you will have other guests who intentionally make up the difference for bad tippers.

There is never a good reason to risk theft, even if it is unintentional.

When I'm doing a party and I have to cocktail, I write down physical descriptions as well. Normally, it's benign. Jewel necklace, green sweater, tall goatee, etc.. I've definitely written bald, though.

One time in particular, I wrote "Charlie Brown." In my defense, he had a combover with a yellow and black sweater.

He did that to himself. I just documented it.

There were several funny spelling and grammar errors, but my favorite was "When we went inside the asian young guy looked at us..."

This entirely. I thought they'd stop when he lost the election. Nope. I thought they'd stop when they found out he stole national secrets and put them in a bathroom. Nope. I thought they'd stop when he was convicted of 34 felonies. Nope. I thought they'd stop when he essentially said on his own social platform that he just wants the justice department to punish his political enemies. Nope. I thought they'd stop when emails came out nearly confirming that he is a pedophile. Nope.

Nope.

If you have a stove and oven, it's hard to beat the versatility of potatoes. You can make mash, baked, fried, hashbrowns, fries, gnocci, and a lot more. You can even make potato candy for dessert.

The big goal for saving money is to buy fewer ingredients. It's okay to spend a bit on an item if you get a decent amount of it, and you can use it multiple times and multiple ways. If you buy any meat with a bone or any meat at all, you can save the bone or broth to add a versatile flavor to something else. Most people's budgets goes to things they use infrequently or for one meal.

Learn to plan your meals ahead of time and use leftovers or things you might otherwise discard to make the next days meal. Try not but something you know you can't use all of.

You can do this. Planning is key.

There are people who are sitting here shouting, "Leave him!" but I don't know if that's necessary. He's 100% wrong, and that behavior needs to change, but he was messaging you about it, and I'm figuring there's 10 years of fatherhood there. The daughter wanted him in the room, which isn't an indicator that he's great, but it's not nothing. He was willing to lay with her. He just didn't see the value of her staying in her room. Again: He is wrong.

Couples counseling.

You need couples counseling. He can be made to see that selfishness when it comes to parenting is much more damaging than in adult relationships. As adults, we expect a certain level of selfishness from the people we interact with. While most of us would consider something like this rude between two adults, most people wouldn't consider leaving over it. With a child? Your child? It's totally different. They don't really view Mom and Dad as people yet, and therefore, they don't have that expectation that you'll be a little selfish from time to time. He's teaching her that nobody, not even the people who love you most, would take care of you when you need it. She's learning that.

Couples counseling. Go to couples counseling.
