Think of it as paying tribute. The brave, free-spirited service-industry employees are living the dream: no responsibilities, no obligations, just endless hanging out in cool spots doing cool stuff. That's the kind of Portland we all want! The kind of Portland we were promised!
You, on the other hand, are slaving away in some cubicle, worrying about boring stuff like mortgage payments and your dumb kid's report card. Hey, it's not the barista's fault that you bought into the American Dream! The lame one, I mean, not the one they talk about in Levi's commercials.
Why not toss Johnny Man-Child a fiver so he can spend his 293rd consecutive Monday drunk on PBR and playing kickball or bike polo or ironically unicycling? Let these flag-waving Portland Patriots fade away and you'll have nothing left to dream about. Might as well move to Vancouver.
Thank you! I've been saying all along "MORE TIPPING POSTS!" but no one would listen! You deserve some sort of compensation, a sort-of monetary "thank you", for this excellent post. Maybe a trip to the I,A prize closet?
