Kat, I'm so glad the new nurse is awesome.

Vortex - Kelly was delighted with the music. Both kids got a kick out of the mystery package from a stranger. Heeeee! Buffistas are awesome-sauce.

Though, I may have to hurt my girl child if she doesn't fork over the pictures she took of my reworked tat.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

OK, house sitting in the town I grew up in. A girl I knew as a kid has a dog grooming service and as my dog needs grooming the course of action seems obvious.

Here's the question. Do I tip? Its her own business, but in matters grooming (be it me or the pup) I tend to anyway. How much do I tip? Her rate is a bit more than the local average, but she brings her rig here.

Thoughts?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, I'd tip -- it's always seemed to me that matters where you tip or not is a bigger expectation than owner vs. not. And anyway, goodwill with an old acquaintance is infinitely better than not.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'd tip.

I have got to make that tomato sauce soon. I have all of the ingredients already.

But the reason you don't tip owners is because they can set their own rates, whereas delivery people, cab drivers, hairdressers, etc. generally don't. She charges more to come to you and collects the entire fee; I don't see why you would tip on top of that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My masseuse is a friend and a former student. I tip her more than I'd tip an average stranger. Then again, the whole thing is weird. But I think that takes some of the edge off.

So a lot of hits for "I never." Whenever I read it elsewhere it never seemed to be called that. I feel less borderline now. But I only ever played it with one extended group of people. The other drinkers...there would have been no point. They had done everything. Upside down, across the border, and with a donkey.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I never played I never.

Well, if you played with us you know ass-hooks would come up in the first round.
