I still don’t know what the issue is, so she wrote black couple. It’s a descriptive term, not a slur or an insult, it was just to help her remember whose check belongs to which table.

She could have just as easily wrote “bald guy” or “blonde couple” or whatever. It’s absurd that people are offended.

I love the way the business bent over and dropped their drawers. Very GOPe-like...

One time a friend and I were dining at a nice steakhouse.

There was a long wait.

I noticed that the hostess had written "leather and vinyl" on her pad.

She was describing our jackets. Big deal.

For the record my friend was wearing the vinyl jacket.

Maybe he should sue.

Should’ve written fat ass & company and been done with it.

better description would be to add "agitators". Merely descriptive, you understand? Not a slur at all-

Most restaurants have a numbering system to differentiate tables; why not write “Table 17” or whatever?
