Satire and the unwashed masses

I stumbled across an interesting piece of writing today...impressive both in its humor and in its readers' inability to get the joke.

Behold: You Can't Handle the Tip

I've started to read the rest of the blog, and suspect we might have a little-known genius on our hands.

The piece sort of creeps up on you, sounding reasonable and going insane. Very clever.

Couldn't agree more.

Great post, and I agree with the readers being stupid. But I fail to see the satire; she's right on. I've never been a big fan of tipping (though I conform to societies norms and do it anyway). I've always thought that if servers don't make enough money and aren't happy with their salary why is it my problem. Maybe those socialist liberal yahoo bastards should go find themselves a new job.
