Liberals are CHEAP!

All they want to do is SPEND YOUR MONEY

- ideally on themselves.

Michael Moore – Once left less than $20 on a bill totally $452.52.

Yeah, but that was just his lunch. Maybe he's more generous when he's eating supper, alone.

23. Tiger Woods – Doesn’t tip because he says he doesn’t carry cash.

Why stop there? Howard Hughes didn't even have to pay for meals, he didn't carry (small) cash and let others at the table pay.

I can understand not wanting to carry a lot of cash around. That’s why we have plastic.

Something I do not understand is that when tipping, why shouldn’t there be a maximum possible tip? It costs the server no more to bring out a $10 burger than it does to bring out a $100 dish. Why should the tip for the latter be greater than the former?

Diddy – Left a $40 tip for his meal – a dinner for 15 people.

How much did the others pay? Bueller?

I never tip. There is no tipping in New Zealand, except by visitors who do not know any better.

Life without tipping is marvelous. The price is the price, and the establishment is responsible for paying their wait staff properly. Those that don’t, don’t end up with good wait staff and they go broke.

Free Enterprise in action.

Y’know. I’ve looked up & down this list and I don’t see “Hillary Clinton” anywhere. Why do you suppose that is?

Jesse Jackson – Left $20 on a $228 tab.

Would it be wrong to spit in his food over such infractions? He claims he did it himself to customers as a youth.

Some of those aren’t too egregious. Henley leaves 15%? Ok, the new 15% is 20% (it used to be 10% in the 50’s), but that isn’t too bad.

Some of these are “He once...” stories and we don’t know if there was a bad service or wrong orders or something. It’s the “he never tips” or “he tips 5%” or “is notorious for bad tipping” that seem to be the worst ones.

I have heard that Tom Hanks is amongst the best tippers (he worked as a waiter before his big break) and matches the check.

______________
This is a BS excuse. He can add the tip to the bill. He’s just a cheap, lying jerk.

28. Paul McCartney – Once left a restaurant too drunk to leave a tip.

Not a big McCartney fan, but unless he's always drunk and never leaves a tip I wouldn't hang him on one report. The others were cheap and rude while sober.

31. Don Henley – Very demanding, keeps staff members on their toes, tips 15%.

Isn't 15% considered a normal tip? Granted he could afford more and if he's very demanding then more might be nice but at least he didn't throw change on the ground like Spears is said to have done.

She's low maintenance, she brings her own silverware.

"It’s speculated she has trouble calculating the proper percentage."

That sure don't cut it - if they can't do the math, they are just as likely to over-tip.

Yep, anyone who has ever worked as a waiter will generally always be the best tippers.

Hard to believe Woods didn’t have a card on him.

I don’t see any evidence for any of these claims in the article.
