Does anybody have that friend that's a good guy 99% of the time but as soon as he enters a restaurant he turns into the biggest prick in the world? I do.

I had breakfast with some friends this morning and as soon as I heard that Dan was coming I almost didn't. He didn't disappoint. We sit down and he starts looking at the menu. Nothing looks good and everything is so expensive.
He settles on the special, 2 eggs any style with a choice of bacon, sausage or ham, a side of hashbrowns and toast, $4.99. A pretty good deal I think. He orders and asks how many strips of bacon come with it. They tell him 4. Ohhh, I only want two he says, is it cheaper if you just get two? No, they tell him. He looks dejected. How do you want your eggs they ask him? Oh, I don't care, over medium I guess. He then asks for his hashbrowns extra crispy.

While we're waiting he starts complaining that for these prices they should at least keep his water glass filled. It's only half empty. He then starts looking at what other people are eating and say 'oh that looks good, I should've ordered that'. Finally the food arrives. He starts staring at his plate and says 'does these eggs look over medium? They look over easy to me' as he's poking at them with his fork. He then turns his attention to the hashbrowns, poking at them with his fork and looking disgusted. He says 'I wanted them crispy all the way through, not just on top'. He picks up a piece of toast and takes a bite 'I asked for margarine, this is butter'. The bacon isn't right either, he wanted it extra crispy. The waitress comes over to ask if we need anything. He opens his mouth, pauses and then lets out a sigh.

After we ate he went to the restroom. The bill arrives and we told the waitress that our friend was paying and went outside. When he came out his ears were bright red and he didn't say a word, he got into his car and left :biggrin:

that is a great prank that you pulled on your friend... and the waitress. i'm guessing her tip was small or nonexistent.

Wow. Your friend sounds like my ex mother-in-law.

I HATED going out to eat with her. She didn't get into the whole price thingy, but she would order something from the menu with about 15 stipulations (i.e. I want my eggs scrambled, but make sure they are not runny or over done, and my toast should be brown, not burnt, and the butter on the side, and my.......you get the picture) Inevitably, she would send her order back no less than 2x before "they got it right". Even though she would pay for the meal, she never left more than $3 for a tip, no matter how much the check was. I would always leave the difference of her tip and 25% of the check amount because I felt bad about the stress she would put any server through.

Thank God I don't ever have to go out to eat with her again.

My ex-mother-in-law (love writing that) would talk on her cell at the table like she was the only one in the world with a mobile phone and then would check and re-apply make-up and lipstick at the motherfcuking table. :sick1:

My sister is fairly rude to waitresses, especially bad ones, but I gotta be honest in saying she's pretty rude in general so it's not a big shocker. One of the last times we went to dinner together we both ordered the special. You should have seen the look she gave the waitress who told her it was so sweet thought that she ordered the same thing as her son. I'm only ten years younger than her. :slappy:

My policy is never be rude to someone who is going to handle your food out of sight whether they deserve it or not but that's just me.

You're a wise man.

I used to know this douche who thought it was OK for him and his wife to change their baby's diaper right at the table in a restaurant. it used to piss us off so much that we would invite him out to play basketball and then never show up :wink2:

That dude who always wears his hat...:shake:

My uncle thinks he's hot $hit too. When he's done perusing through the menu, he'll lean it against the leg of his chair and ask where the waitress is. Typically, he orders steak wherever we go, and when the waitress asks how he likes it done, right on queue he says, "I want you to chop its head off, wipe its @ss, and put it on the plate." The waitress says, "Rare?" Unc says, "Bloody." :so:

My old man would clean Chi Chi's out of salsa too...we'd have stacks of those little black salsa cups on the table. He'd bathe in that stuff if he could.

When I waitressed in high school, we had this guy who would come in with his wife and then get all touchy with the server when his wife went to the bathroom or outside while he paid the bill. (Never my table, thankfully.) One day our manager saw him go after a girl too shy to speak up and lost it. She followed him out to the car and screamed at him for a good five minutes while the whole restaurant came out to watch. It would have been hilarious if it weren't for his poor wife sitting in the car. :(
