You and an old friend catch up at a restaurant. When the bill comes, how do you make sure the poor waiter takes your card? - eviltoast

I usually whisper, “I’ll flip every table in this joint if you don’t take my card, including the one with that child at it”, and while it has a 100% success rate, I can’t help but feel terrible about it, later. What are some alternatives?

    This reminds me of my dad and grandfather having good natured arguments about who was going to pay. It would last a good 5-10 minutes, with one of them ‘winning’. It was all in good fun, and the wait staff usually had a blast watching.

    In reality, they alternated who would pay, and did this mostly for fun.
