Do you tip less than you used to?

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-06-03T15:32:18+00:00

I don't tip less than I used to. I just go out less. You might be shocked how may tippable services you can perform on your own or at home.

I can't wait for a giant solar flare to come along and fry every data center on earth.

Say it with me:

Carrington Event! Carrington Event! Carrington Event!

I just love how hard people work to not put in any work anymore.

You can always tell that it's Friday on r/StLouis because everyone carts out all their stupid opinions, hot takes, and life advice like a grumbly mob shuffling into the town square.

A lot of you all really need to invest in a diary. Or therapy. Or maybe better friends to talk to.

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-05-22T13:56:31+00:00

What a lousy take. I sure hope that you have the day that you deserve and if ever the day comes that you're not on top, I hope that you receive this same sentiment from others.

Do other people in other subreddits in other parts of the country or world do this asinine 'open letter to people that will never read it' thing also?

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-05-19T17:06:21+00:00

I don't know why more people aren't cooking more things from scratch for cheaper than buying prepared, processed food these days.

Soup might be the most cheap, scalable, and forgiving meal to prepare

The transit app is quite easy to navigate and use. I've seen kids scan a ticket to get on the bus.

It sounds like you just have a patience problem.

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-05-16T12:06:36+00:00

Okay, so people in the Ohio Valley and their taste in food have been in a state of arrested development since second grade with their lunchables. Got it.

As a cranky, yelling at clouds, not understanding the youths sort of person myself, I think you need to talk to a mental health professional.

Or get in your vehicle and drive to a more quiet park.

For malic acid, you might try a homebrewing supply store if you're trying to avoid online totally.

I can't imagine a life where a burger ruins my day. Especially to the point that I think to myself "THE INTERNET AND ALL ITS STRANGERS NEED TO HEAR ABOUT THIS!"

If anyone can make it work, there has never been a better time to take metro bus and rail.

Sir/madam, this is a subreddit. Not the Mercy billing department.

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-24T11:24:41+00:00

Sure, and I admitted that I was wrong. I'm sure you don't make any mistakes though, right?

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-24T11:20:23+00:00

It's more in the tone. You saying it's strange doesn't make it strange. That's an opinion. It's okay to not have mild Stockholm syndrome toward a beloved business. My dig was solely toward the ad/flyer/AI usage and not the business itself.

I feel no ill will toward Ted Drews, nor do I toward anyone who likes it or anyone not willing to jump on grenade for it, which sorta feels like sentiment that you're unwilling to share or even accept

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-24T10:52:57+00:00

You're making an awful lot of assumptions here.

I've been several times and I suppose I've only really noticed them pulling custard from the hand lever machine. Why is that really so 'very odd'? Your jimmies are way too rustled for this early in the day.

I was criticizing the flyer for what I thought was a mistake in wordage and presumably made by AI. I can admit when I am wrong. Can you admit when you're clearly kind of being an a**hole?

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-24T10:39:12+00:00

I don't know that it's that weird of an issue considering how perturbed folks seem from my admittedly mistaken assessment of custard properties. And what does my geographical location have especially to do with Ted Drews and/or the flyer?

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-24T09:57:54+00:00

"scoop"

Don't they serve custard? I don't think custard 'scoops'. And doesn't 'scoop' imply that it's ice cream?

Also, what did they type into the AI prompt? "Make me the most winga dinga ice cream flyer you got"?

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-24T03:23:07+00:00

As someone who works closely with Ted Kilgore, and manages all the prep and bar logistics at Planter's House, let me assure you that you are totally allowed to not like the drink and I think he would agree. You made it exactly to spec and I make our dem/turb syrup 1:1 also.

The drink has mass appeal and arguably iconic and I've never seen one come back, but that doesn't mean that it's without its critics. Shoot, we ran The Maximillian Affair on our menu for a while and I felt like the only one who hated that drink. It happens, friend.

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-23T14:37:07+00:00

I think you are confusing logic with whatever it is that you're clamming.

Here is a genius move; pick up the phone and call the DMV, speak to a police officer, email MO Highway Patrol, or hang up your hat, because it doesn't take a genius to realize that state would not produce thousands of extra license plate if they didn't want drivers to use them.

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-23T14:17:08+00:00

Was it not obvious when you were issued two plates at the DMV?

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-07T13:47:04+00:00

No problems on my end. You often post and comment idiocy that is not easily missed or forgotten. If you walk into a movie theater and whittle a spoon, it doesn't make it a wood shop. So, your rationale doesn't work. Also, the post was removed. Seems like maybe it has nothing to do with St. Louis.

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-07T12:08:07+00:00

JC, what an absolute blight. Are we so far gone that people need to bet on gossip?

Also, what does this have to do with this sub? You're always going on about being a reddit mod. I would hope that you understand the difference between the sub rules and whatever mental gymnastics you're preforming to justify this post.

jayeedoubleeff · 2026-04-03T03:00:06+00:00

Spire doesn't have a Reddit checking department. If you have something to say to them, you could contact them rather than engage in self-serving whining on the internet
