Most likely. It will be interesting to see how Zoe reacts when that happens.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I loved, and loved to hate, a lot of the BSG characters. In fact, I think I loved the characters I hated the most. I'm hoping Caprica is still trying to establish itself, and that the story and characters will become much more interesting as it goes along.Me too. The weird relationship between Amanda and Clarice is looking promising.

I like it as well. I'm a little disappointed by the character development. None of the characters have a strong personality that you can either hate or love. It's difficult to care about what happens to them. In BSG, you wanted Apollo to be with Starbuck and it made you upset that she was so stubborn that it wouldn't work. (Of course, I'm speaking of the newer BSG, since Starbuck in the original was a male.) In Caprica, I can barely remember the names of some of the characters.

Is no where near as good as Battlestar Galactica was. The characters are weak and the story line is loose. When are they going to develop a new sci-fi worth watching?

I've been watching it. It's not half bad. I can't say that I get excited to come home and watch it, though. There hasn't really been a show like that since Heroes and Jericho.

The Lounge / Re: How do you tip?
« on: October 04, 2010, 10:21:51 AM »If you tip when you don't have to you are a sucker... Tipping is something you only do at country clubs and high end restaurants where you want to leave a good impression so you get preferential treatment the next time. Chances are the waiter at Suk Mai Wangs Korean Cuisine will treat you exactly the same the next time whether you tip 0% or 30%. In fact, you probably will not even get the same waiter.The stupidity is strong with this one.

« on: October 03, 2010, 09:20:45 PM »The only time i undertip, is when the waitresses do the one fucking pet peeve of mine. I'll hand em like ... 2 20's on a 25 dollar bill... and thell take it as say "are you all set?" I hate that. Of course im not all set. I want some fucking change. You just fucked yourself from a 10 dollar tip to a 5.I normally ask, "Do you need change?" I never assume they're leaving me their change for a tip.

There's a port in the center of a crescent shaped bay. It controls buses, trains (that use magnets to float over a track), airplanes that lift vertically, and ships. The ends of the crescent are covered in restaurants and little tourist shops. I'm always just passing through it to get somewhere.So you are basically frequently going on vacation?

« on: October 03, 2010, 10:48:35 AM »Two pages in, and I'm glad that no one here has uttered the magic words, "I don't tip." In almost every online discussion I've seen about tipping, there's usually at least at one smartass who thinks he's a fucking rebel because he doesn't tip. If anyone here just "doesn't tip" on principle, let me tell you right now, you're an asshole, and you don't look edgy or cool for ignoring social folkways.Agreed.
Also, last night one of the servers at work came in and sat at one of my bar tables. He got his employee comp on his meal, then proceeded to tip me less than the amount of his comp. Fucking douche nozzle.

Has anyone watched this show? I think it airs on Investigation Discovery. It makes me feel like I'm watching a more detailed version of Idiocracy. These women marry men who are in prison and then complain about how little time they have with their husbands.

Kinda off topic, but I really envy people who can control their dreams. Whenever I deduce that I'm in a dream, I immediately become aware of the real world (my head against the pillow and such) and wake up.

The Lounge / Re: How do you tip?
« on: October 02, 2010, 01:54:17 PM »Oh yeah. If I'm a regular somewhere, and have a usual server...I never tip less than 30%. I've left $35 tips on a $70 check before.When you go out to eat and/or drink, how much do you normally tip your server/bartender?
I never tip less than 20%, and if I spend more than $30, I normally leave at least $10.
Same here, never less than 20%. At my regular bar I give them even more. It's good to establish a relationship, then you get the hook ups.

The Lounge / Re: How do you tip?
« on: October 02, 2010, 01:46:05 PM »In the United States, if you work a job that gets tips, you don't have to be paid minimum wage. By the employer, you get paid $2.13 an hour. If this plus tips doesn't equal the actual minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, the employer must make up the difference. Basically, the people you serve pay your wages.Not necessarily. If you can't prove you didn't make enough to earn minimum wage, the employer can dispute it and you're SOL.
