This is why you just gotta get friends who all have the same birthday as you. It eliminates 364/365 of people from being your friend, but the avoidance of the awkwardness is well worth it.

[@PowerRainbow]

my father actually have the same date of birthday as i have so it's kinda usual thing for us to tell :D

[@nigelchristophercox4325]

A bit like saying “you too” when the waiting staff say “enjoy your meal”.

[@seeibe]

In Germany we just say "mealtime" to each other, and yeah it's customary for the people eating to say it to the waiting staff.

[@jimmysthoughts8571]

Sounds like I was just invited to eat with you! lol

[@aw2740]

As a waiter myself: we get this all the time, and we sincirely don't mind at all. Personally I even appericiate it when people say this, because that is a sign that you are a polite person ;)

[@greanhare5270]

It's common knowledge that the waitstaff saves it until they eventually eat. There's no expiration date on it.

[@TheGerudan]

Immediately thought of that. Even kinda "worse" when you take something to go and they say something like "Enjoy your meal and have a nice day". There is no way to answer that without making it somewhat awkward.

Strange.

[@SweatyFatGuy]

Or... "If I can get out of this halfway house for strange addictions and fetishes, find some way to treat the exotic and highly contagious disease I picked up from a particular fetish regarding cut hair on the floor, I plan to open a school for wayward kids and a pet brothel.Ah, I realize that sounds a bit odd, it is a brothel where you pets can get some from other pets, not where you get some from other people's pets." KZbin tends to frown on my ideas for content like that. They sometimes leave the comments though... so I have that going for me, which is nice.

Certified "y-you too" moment

[@nunziocombattelli6311]

I remember comedian Brian Regan introducing me to this humor when I was a kid. Waiter: “enjoy your meal!” Me: “you too!”

[@JGunny92]

When the delivery driver drop's off your meal and says "Have a nice meal" And you say "You too". *Cries internally*

[@Aguadiablo]

He has to eat eventually

[@theq86]

I deliver for side cash and this happened more than you think. Was very common until the pandemic hit and all orders are leave at door now.

[@jafogx]

I see you and raise you when you’re at the movies and the ticket guy says “enjoy your movie!” -“You too!”

[@LuckyFlesh]

Shee-ut. I have an Uncle that was/is a barber. He always had plenty of money. Worked when he WANTED to. Vacationed all the time. He's now "retired" and works maybe 2~3 days a week and is obviously NOT hurting for money. I think most folks would consider his reality a "dream".

[@Mediados]

@@LuckyFlesh The dream for everyone should be that you want to work as much as you can because you love what you do. Not exactly that you have enough money so you can avoid working.

[@LuckyFlesh]

@@Mediados I agree with you. The problem is, if we all just did what we loved, we'd all die. No one dreams of cleaning the sewers, but it must be done. We all have to sacrifice to keep the "machine" that keeps us al alive going.

[@Mediados]

@@LuckyFlesh Absolutely true, but the future could solve this issue. Once Robotics are advanced enough, humans won't be required to do the dirty work anymore and we can all focus on becoming better and more intellectual as a society. Of course this will take a long time until we reach that point, but in a good future most people will have the opportunity to pursue their passions. Or of course the future is dominated by corporate greed and mass poverty. The latter is more likely.

Ben made the right choice there. The only option was to exit promptly and leave a large tip when you pay on the way out

Ben’s actually really lucky he made that foolish comment before the haircut started, otherwise he’d have to leave with a ridiculous half-a-haircut style
