Ugly American

I hate foreigners. All servers/bartenders do. They don't fucking tip as a rule or they do but in a way that's so insultingly low that you wish they hadn't bothered at all.

Last night, case in point: $2 on a $69 bill. And I'll bet they thought they were doing me a favor. You know, it's just them pretending that they are foreign and don't know how to do it, because they can ride the subway downtown to ground zero and, more importantly, Century 21 without much problem, so they can certainly read the NY tourist brochures that tell them to tip 15% to %20. I'll take %15, hell, I'll take %10. But the next person who leaves a couple bucks on a significant check gets an earful. I don't care if they don't understand English.
