    Yeah, it looks like this person just went to an overpriced restaurant.

    Dining at the Ritz and then throwing a fit over your bill is… idk, man. Maybe you should have walked out before ordering a $6 glass of lemonade.

      Restaurant: $11 cannelloni and $6 beer.

      Lemmy: fuck the rich for paying these high prices!

      That’s not the point though… it’s that everything is 18% more than advertised on the menu, regardless of whether the original price was high or fair.

        More than that if you factor in sales taxes. Or “valet only”. Nevermind tip.

        Definitely qualifies as mildly infuriating, but this sort of bullshit surcharge is standard fair for upscale retail in the service sector.
