I (30 F) was at a restaurant last night with my mother. She was meeting my boyfriends mom for the first time. We're punctual people, so we got there about 30 minutes before our reservation. We got seated with no issues. It took the waitress 20 minutes to get to our table even though the restaurant was pretty empty. Right away I could tell the she didn't want to wait on us. She didn't great us with a "hello," she just asked what we wanted to drink. We told her, and I noticed that she didn't write our order down. It took another 15 minutes for our drinks to get to our table, and they were wrong. It's hard to mess up a gingerale and a vodka soda, but she did.
My mom pointed out that she didn't order a pepsi, and the waitress rolled her eyes, took my mother's glass and disappeared. I excused myself to use the washroom shortly after. I had no idea where I was going, so I went to the entrance to ask one of the hostesses there. While I was walking up to the server area, I overheard my waitress talking to some other hostesses. She was pissed that she had to wait on "a black table" because "they" never tip well. My mother and I were the only black people in the restaurant. She wasn't even whispering when she said it either.
I wasn't stunned, but her lack of effort started to make sense. I interrupted their conversation, and I asked where the bathroom was. I didn't let on that I had heard what they were talking about. When I got out of the bathroom, my boyfriend and his mom were already seated. My boyfriend and his mother are white. When my waitress saw the rest of our party, she did a 180. Her service was stellar. She took notes, told jokes, and our water glasses were always filled. She didn't make another mistake.
Because the night went so well, I decided to treat everyone and pay the check. She gave me the machine, and I smiled at her while I keyed in "0%" for a tip. She didn't notice until after the receipt had been printed out. By that time, all of us had already started to leave. She tapped me on the shoulder and asked if I had made a mistake on the bill. I told her I didn't think so, and looked at the receipt. She asked if there was a problem with her service, and I said her service was fantastic, but since I was a black woman, I don't tip well. Her face went white, and she kind of laughed nervously, and I laughed as well. I walked out after that, but my boyfriends mom asked what had happened.
I told her what I had overheard, and my boyfriend's mom said that I should've tipped her anyway because it shows character. She seemed pretty pissed at me after that. My boyfriend and my mom are both on my side, but I'm wondering if I should've just thrown in a $2 tip?
Aww, cripes. I didn't know I'd have to write a description. How many words is that so far, like a hundred? Soooo, yeah. Mildly interesting stuff. Stuff that interests you. Mildly. It's in the name, ffs.
Games from from PS1 era and back. Console, handheld, PC, doesn't matter.
For me I'd say Super Metroid and Link to the Past, both of these games I played for the first time I think 20 years after their release and the lack of QoL features from older games just weren't a problem at all with these two.
Also I suppose a lot of Squaresoft RPGs from the PS1 era, but I'm not sure if they have truly aged well or if I'm biased from having played a lot of them back in the day. That said maybe Capcom's Breath of Fire IV would be one that actually stood well the test of time.
This post is a stealthy recommendation request for some older titles for me to go back to. Mind I was playing most of the games from back then as they were released but I suppose I missed a few gems specially in Nintendo handhelds.

We are a fun, interesting, and creative subreddit for you to ask what others would do in certain hypothetical situations.
You must allude the friend to sleeping with you, and your wife needs to catch you both during the act. When she catches you, the act must continue for at least 5 minutes despite all the drama. If you stop before the 5-min mark, you don’t get the money.
There is a 100% guarantee that your wife will forgive you 1 week afterwards, and will be happy that you at least did it with a person she knows and in exchange for 1$ billion.
If you take the offer, your wife will get the same offer regarding sleeping with your best friend. She might decline the offer because you already have money, but you really never know.
