Jerry, what's the point of leaving such a huge tip when all you're doing is making the kitchen hand and guy washing the dishes in the back jealous of your waitress. They at least had a role in preparing your food and cleaning your plate before it's use. The waitress brought your food over from the counter, walked 10 metres and now we have to stop what were doing and make sure to leave the right tip in order for her to be adequately compensated for her really difficult work. The guys in the back in the hot kitchen are doing way more work in an unpleasant environment but they wont see a penny of your $100 or however much you left.
@@medved4030 most restaurants share the tips around
@@NotDuncan that's absolutely untrue.
@@NotDuncan They def not share the tips around. They are like vultures. Trying to smooch as much tips as they can.
@@jsanders2610 Oh look the guy who ran away from a talk cause he lost. What are you even doing here in the public if you keep running away? Shouldn't you be removing your own posts cause you know you fucked up? Oh wait you did.
Jerry is a huge tipper. My friend is a server at a restaurant in NYC and she said Jerry came in once and tipped her like 50 bucks on a $70 meal.
no offence to jerry but is 50 bucks that HUGE a tip?
i would tip 25 on a 70 meal and make probably less than 1% than Jerry does...
no offence to you but is 25 bucks really a notable tip?
I mean i tip 5 bucks but i make probably less than 20% than you do
I think that is nice. People complain but he don't have to give nothing but pay the bill. Lol I will take the 50
"The bad son, the bad employee.....the bad tipper!!"
I dislike when people base what they think generous is in a situation like this based off the person's worth. If he did $50 to a charity, yeah, okay, call it out. But a 70% tip seems generous no matter who you are (and depending on service/fanciness of the place).
The only celebrity I ever met in a restaurant was Ryan Leaf. I left him 30%.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!
Dawg I’m fucking dead
This went over a lot of people heads. Real sports heads got a kick
LMAOO im dead
Hahahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂
I appreciate that Jerry knows how much money he has. I hate it when wealthy celebrities get all shy and act like they don't have a ton of cash. I understand that you don't want strangers hitting you up for a loan, but being generous to hardworking waitstaff is hardly a burden.
He also says he never haggles because he doesn't need to. Which I really appreciate to be honest. Imagine being a billionaire and going to a country whose currency is half the value of yours, and still demanding things are cheaper from sellers at the local marketplace.
Looking at you, Steve Buscemi... j/k that was just his character in Reservoir Dogs. Steve is actually a pretty great guy from what I've heard.
Just to add to the theme here: Abraham Lincoln once left me a $400 tip on a $3.54 tab once in the late summer of 1765. He's known to be a good tipper.
I don't think anyone see's the genius behind this comment, because Abe wasn't even born until 1809
@Abdul ElTawil Abraham Lincoln also once gave me a tip!
It was the tip of his dicc.
That was Lincoln's thing. Tip generously with Confederate money. He ran out of walls to paper.
@@zzzhuh Really proffesor...fuck off!
"What year is this?"
He paid to impress the ladies but forgot his wallet everytime with the dudes. Classic
Classic jew
So, one of two things is happening there. Either he's an idiot who left his wallet in the car (which then begs the question, why doesn't he just run out and get it) or he's driving without a license on him.
@@Toast960 he’s a comedian making a show. The tension IS funny. The people he is taking out are not poor and he’s not doing it to them at really expensive places.
Jerry made the greatest comedy show of all time. He understands tv. Give him some credit.
Hes gay
He let's late night hosts pay
"I was just getting an aspirin."
LOL. that always gets me.
When Jerry would have said, "Oh it looks like I forgot my wallet." I would have said, "me too." And would have said how can you invite someone to lunch and not bring your wallet? He would have said no I have my wallet I forgot it in the car. I would have said OH me too, it must be in the car. Do you want me to get your wallet and mine?
I thought $10 for a $40 meal would be a good tip?
@@angelnixxa278 For someone who's not a celebrity superstar. He literally explains right after: "Everyone's gonna ask (that waitress), 'Oh my God, you waited on Seinfeld and SJP. How much did they leave you?'"
He, rightfully, doesn't want to be seen as a snob. For us plebs, $10 on a
@@matrixphijr it's not even pocket change, it's a penny.
dude literally gets money every time an episode of seinfeld plays
Many sitcom shows do. Royalties are ridiculous, especially when you're Jerry Seinfeld
Why wouldn't he? Should a network take advertising revenue without having to pay anything for the show that brings them viewers?
well he literally wrote the thing ,he literally stared in the thing ,he literally came up with the idea for the thing . and he literally should get paid every time it plays and he literally dose !!
pdg gooddy he literally did not write the thing there was larry king as well, and dozens of other writers who came up with whole episodes and jokes and what not but only people who get the credit for it are larry and jerry
Seinfeld reruns is still better than 90% of the new shows on today.
Eric Clapton left me a $380 tip on a $380 tab many years ago. Then the next night I worked security at his show and during sound check he tipped me a $100 to run down the street and grab him two packs of cigarettes. Some celebs tip very well.
honestly if you have the money and you can't leave a fat tip, you're a piece of shit.
r/thathappened
What kind of smokes you get him?
Matt Rowland you don’t get rich by giving it all away
@@xordus If they wanna tip then they can tip.
That check bit is one of Jerry's best no doubt. Punch after punch, perfect delivery.
Peter Maag nerd....dork
It’s as good as the
‘Gotta go’ bit at the start of ‘confidential 1987’
I love that bit
Dav Har goof....f*g
I agree- classic JS. I have come to appreciate his comedy more and more- it is sort of timeless or classic in a sense. And to do it without using any real vulgarity, swear words, sexual themes, politics or outrage. It takes huge talent to be really funny without accessing those elements.
Yes....if you like really, really boring comedy
Jerry Seinfeld has a net worth of 900 million dollars
blackwhiteyellow he deserves more, Seinfeld is the best tv show ever 🍀
CEL TIC best show ever my ass, no offense lol
Mayank Choudhary it’s probably a bit too sophisticated for you, try some Charlie sheen show 💩
CEL TIC Me stupid, me likey cartoon... you too smart, you see sienfeld, me guess youz a rocket sciencetist
Seinfeld was a pretty good show. I wouldn't say best show ever by a long shot, though. Try watching a few episodes with the laugh track removed.
I love the Sarah Jessica Parker bit. They're both unquestionably right at the same time. She wanted to leave 35%, which is generous, but they're also a publicly known multi-millionaire and a billionaire. They can't leave $13.
@Mr X $10 / $37 = 27% though still too low for her. People probably expect them to leave 100%.
SMP is notoriously cheap and rude. Next
@Mr X and you're either bad at math or bad at comprehension. She wanted to leave ten bucks, not 10%. 10 bucks on a 37 dollar bill is over 25%; a more than reasonable tip, generally.
@@hinney827 I think they're bad at both
@@hinney827 from what Mr X said, I can only surmise that he meant SJP was actually bs’ing with the 10 dollar tip and she is actually a 10% tipper. She’s probably just saying that to Jerry! Lol….that’s why she was so shocked by Jerry’s tipping.
That little bit of stand-up near the end about the bill was Jerry Seinfeld at his purest. He squeezed every last drop out of the scenario and delivered it perfectly.
Good for jerry, a big tipper, he knows how blessed he is and wants to share that blessing, way to go jerry
Good tipper on camera*
Only when women are around
Given his net worth he is a crappy tipper, IMO.
He knows how hard it is to do their jobs and their majority income is tips. Its more of a matter of respect than sharing his blessing. I make shit $, especially compared to jerry, and when I go out i try and leave %25. Has nothing to do with be blessed.
@@jaywjr2456 well he literally explains it's so people speak well of him after he leaves.. but I'm sure the staff don't care what his motivation is
"There is nothing finer than being in your diner"
Little do people know that he’s putting the tipping on the “expenses” part of the show and Netflix are the ones paying all of it. Smart guy
"before you eat, money has absolutely no value" lol
I can't stop laughing at the eye bulge! So damn funny.
Nobody:
Jerry when he sees the check : 😃😳😃
I'm just waiting for Mr. Pink to show up.
That stand up bit at the end is so real! "Does this look right to you?" Lmao
He did that on the show, you know
"What year is this!?" Haha three bucks for eggs, maaan that's awesome.
John the Kristen Wiig episode aired in January of last year.
You gotta come to the south and check out waffle house bruh. you get like 3 or 4 eggs for about 2.50, and then you can add on as many additional eggs as you want for .40 each. I was seriously order a dozen and the could would be pissed but hey, cant pass that deal up , its too good
I can buy two dozen eggs for $3 and cook them myself
John they ate some old rotten non organic eggs that's why it was so cheap
3 dollars for eggs?
Yep, that's about right in the real world...
Jerry is used to high end dining where eggs are 30.00 EACH!
Of course those are Upper Manhattan coffee shop prices. ..
Restaurant prices... 300.00
Tip at least a C note man!
I just got back from Shanghai a few days ago. Their system is this: you order your food, pay for it and then it's served. I kind of prefer it.
That's the way it should be.
@Y Marina and how! What are they going to do if you walk out before paying the meal?
Shanghai copied the Sizzler paying format.🍤
Hell no
In my country... Yes we're known in America to be poor tippers... We tip 2-5% 10 if you're generous... And in Japan we tip zero, so it's incredible to see these Americans male a big deal about the tip
Jerry and SJP have crazy good chemistry.
There’s something surreal watching millionaires, even billionaires, vying to pay a 40$ bill.
Jerry exposing the cheapness of these millionaires is hilarious in itself
I'm in the restaurant business. Very happy to know Jerry tips well.
It's nice to know the whole "good tipper" thing isn't just a bit with him.
Every rich person should tip well, I mean like 100% because food servers typically earn crap wages and wealthy people can easily afford to help them out a little.
can someone explain to me why Jerry found that restaurant frozen in time? How much does the egg cost in the USA.
Rhuan Narciso - at my local Philadelphia suburb diner, one egg cooked any style costs $2.15, two for $3.05. For comparison, at the grocery right next door to it you can buy a half dozen for $0.88. What a fried egg in LA or NYC coats I don’t know.
Ive heard that Lebron tips horribly or not at all. Brendan Schaub said when he performed in Cleveland he had restaurant owners tell him LeBron would have places stay open late after games and still wouldn't tip worth a crap.
when he said to her "tell me what is real' that was the truth...he knows his reality isn't real life.
And she did tell him what is real life. She said move the decimal over, as in move the decimal over 2 places to the left as that is 10% then double it if the service wasn't bad and that is a 20% tip. If the service was bad 10% tip and if the service was horrible no tip, just an explanation of what was bad on the check.
I think Jerry is a genuinely generous person. Some people are and some aren’t, but if you are and you are famous what he said completely holds water. He wants him/her to rave about how great he was to him/her when he or she tells people he or she waited on him. He gets enjoyment from giving and seeing the reactions. I am not famous, but I love doing this for people in the serving business when I can. Bravo Jerry.
Brock Smith Rachel rays a notoriously shitty tipper
I like the bit at the end. "I'm not hungry, why are we buying all this food?"
That Kristen Wigg scene was shot at House Off Pies on Vermont in Los Feliz. It’s my go to breakfast spot. Yes, it is frozen in time, which is exactly why my family eats there every Saturday morning. Feed a family of 3 for 25 bucks; can’t beat it. Chicken and waffles go great with their strawberry milkshake.
@Jason Downs. Places like that are disappearing. These are the only places left where a lot of families can still take the kids out to eat. Then some yahoo comes along, give it a big fancy renovation, hipsters it up, prints fancy menus, builds fancy websites and triples all the prices.
Based on their menu, $25 for 3 is still a fairly light breakfast unless one of you is a baby.
Probably slop off the floor if they can afford to be that cheap.
Jason Downs I’m coming
Sorry how do you call 25 dollars a "light breakfast" exactly? That's 10 dollars per person and depending what you order that's not really cheap @@dlxmarks
Why did I crack up every single time he eye-bulged the check?
“I was just getting an aspirin” 0:10 😂😂
I have heard this joke so many times and it still cracks me up . Thats Gold 👌 Jerry.. GOLD!
Has anyone else noticed that real Jerry pretty much has the "bad haircut" his character got 25 years ago?
Dennis Staughton 😂😂😂
Karma baby, karma!
I almost didn't recognize him
If I had his money, i'd be carrying around $100 bills just for tips.
just gentile things
U bunchof dickheads. Just because you have millions u think u would all of sudden throw around 100 bills like ur a HipHop star who tend to be broke after that hit song 10 years later. Grow up.
No, no you wouldn’t, poor people don’t understand being rich
It’s easy to be generous with other people’s money. Be generous with your own money.
I light my cigarettes with hundred dollar bills
before i knew what i wanted to do with myself, i was a server at red lobster for 7 years. This really hit home. TY JERRY! all servers are very grateful that you actually give a damn
I love the chemistry between him and Sarah
The sarah jessica parker one was hilarious
Tipping shouldn't be a thing. It just enables bussinesses to underpay their workers + the customer ultimatly pays more.
I disagree, because a really good waiter is more likely to do better than he or she would with a normal base pay. Also, profit margins aren’t great for restaurants in the first place, so if they paid their workers more, you would definitely see a significant raise in prices, so how much the customer pays would be about the same regardless of the system, unless you’re jerry, of course.
C. J. He just convinced me gimme back my dollar
Gg Ff Hey. Leave the dollars there.
All right, ramblers,
let's get ramblin'.
@@hunterzinanti7990 Yeah, the customer pays the same. So let's pay the waiters more instead of them relying on tips, which is stupid.
@@theguywhoisaustralian1465 I get the argument that the whole idea of tipping is silly, especially since we all normally agree to consistently pay in the 15 to 20 percent range, but that's just the way things are. I didn't create the system. From the waiter's standpoint, I'd much prefer the tip system since you have a chance of receiving more than you would with a base pay. I've never waited before, but I have multiple bartender friends who often make more in tips from a 4 hour weekend shift than I make in two full days.
"Everyone's going to ask her - Oh my god, you waited on Jerry Seinfeld and Sara Jessica Parker... how much did they tip you... - What do you want her to say??"
That's great perspective from Jerry.
I'm proud of Jerry. I am a believer in over tipping when a tip is earned.
I'm a believer of companies paying their employees, not their customers doing it for them. Who's tipping the chef for doing the meals extra delicious so that the place stays open in the first place? Yeah, no one cares about the *entire* staff... Japanese have it figured out on that one.
friend of mine provides security for a high priced lawyer. he said the lawyer leave insane tips just to watch the look on the waitress face.
Classic check bit. “Good? Showbiz good?” Love it
The best one was Jerry and Kevin Hart, Kevin walked up to the tip jar (was pretty big) and just filled it right up with notes (Jerry followed dumping several notes of his own)
I worked in restaurant/lounge in NYC, lots of celebrities expect no check. They believe they are giving your business free publicity by them even being there. Many times celebrities will walk out on bill. Also, tipping is extremely rare...however, there has been celebrities that are very generous, though...but not many
This Mothafucka Said yeah, I’d tackle a celeb for not paying if it were to fall on me to cover their bill
That’s really sad. Says a lot about who they are, as an individual.
I worked my way through college as a cook back in the seventies, I way over tip, I'm not rich I just know what it's like to work your ass off......
That stand up about the check is classic, I told it to my wife the other day she just burst into laughter
I do this bit all the time with my family ever since watching this episode.
That eye thing kills me
Wanted him to talk about the universal sign language for “ Cheque please” squirggling in the air.
This is one of my favorite bits from the shows.
Seinfeld never changed.. Slap some bad lighting and a wig onto todays S and he would look like the 1989 version. I guess having nearly a billion dollars is kinda a fountain of youth.
xamurai00 Ever wonder how the powerful and rich live to be upper 80’s and some into their 90’s while the commoners live to be in their upper 60’s and some into their upper 70’s. There’s no coincidence!
@@TheDude-yw4kn There are plenty of rich and powerful people that have died young, don't be so stupid!
Dead Doll A closed mind is an impediment
@@deaddoll1361 maybe they didnt want to live till they were 100 .. people like Kurt Cobain.. Elvis.. James Dean.. But other rich an powerful people do.. look at the rothschilds, one of them is over 100. The queen is in her 90's. prince philip is nearly 100
I heard he likes them young i mean 17 Nd 18 not pedophilia
As someone that has worked in the food industry their whole life, this man is a treasure.
I love how adorable Sarah is when he says "how many more times are you gonna laugh at that?"
First part was funny
Jerry “ no no I insist”
“ I was just getting an aspirin” 😂
"im really glad we arent married" LOL so funny
Jerry's eye thing had me cackling for a good two minutes
cute
Money doesn't exist to Jerry Seinfeld. He has more than most can imagine. Of course he throws down tonns.
LMFAO "What is this the story of the bill"
It's an act of comedy. Seinfeld pays in advance of all his meetings. Class act
Jerry Seinfeld really gives off that "please think I'm a good, im leaving a big tip" vibe
Although he practically says it himself, its for showbiz
Jerry Made his millions years ago! I am glad to see he tips well to the people who need a great tip!
He made $750,000 per episode of comedians in cars
Nice to see that he’s a good tipper; I lived in Las Vegas and every time there was a celebrity, my friends in the service industry always talked about how they tipped
Wow! That back and forth with Sara Jessica Parker was beautiful.
Reginald House shame she's supposed to be a complete bitch
My dad who died in 2017 was a multiple millionaire. He own a construction company for over 50 years.. Everyone knew him locally because his last name was on the trucks and cranes around town....Not to mention government contracts on roads and buildings....The local restaurants he ate at often even saved a table for 6 right by the servers area just for him...when I was young I use to met up with him and go to lunch on occasion. He always tipped 50% to 100%.. All his contracts and referrals for business he said cam with a price...Your reputation is everything in business. When your rich you can't afford to lose it and must pay a premium to those who are less fortunate.....shitting on minimum wage people acting like a king gets nothing but hatred. Even if the service isn't great he said he tipped. Seinfeld is worth 900 million dollars.....everyone knows he's a 1%ter. Anything less then 100% and rumors would damage he's reputation.
"I'm not the last emperor. What's the damage?" One of the funniest people alive to be sure.
i can't wait until i can be like NO PLEASE LET ME PAY
Always straight up...Jerry always has the pulse of the situation...a brilliant comedian .... this bit is spot on....👏👌👍........
Watching the Jordan special on ESPN and seeing Scottie Pippen again reminded me how tight Pippen was with a buck. He was known as "no tippin" Pippen.
I thought $10 for a $40 meal would be a good tip?
It would be... If you're a normal person. Jerry Seinfeld's net worth is $900 Million and Sarah Jessica Parker's is $90 Million. Add in her husband Matthew Broderick and it's and extra $45 Million. Sooo..... Almost One Billion Dollars seated at the table and she's leaving $10.00. Class dismissed.
So do you tip by how much wealth you have? So if Warren Buffett wants dairy queen he should leave a $1000 tip. That just sounds ridiculous to me. The waitress probably just makes $10/h. So getting a hour worth of pay for refilling a coffee is not bad. Where I live 10% is maybe the minimum. 15% - 20% is average. 25% or more is a good tip.
Jerry explained it.Dude just can’t stand to think what the waitress would say to her friends lol
They make minimum wage, plus they serve multiple tables, getting multiple tips per hour. 20% is plenty, IMO. If you aren't making enough doing menial labour, go get an education and better your life.
They also pay hell in taxes.
1:00 the women behind Jerry's reaction was everything.
the eye check bit is so simple yet so hilarious
I served Jerry and his bill was 18 bucks
And this man gave me 35 dollars extra.
@g milne What? Why are you insanely insulting? That didn't even make any sense!
@g milne ur a fucking psycho
Wow!
I’m getting I’m Not Norm vibes
"She wants my tip." -Jerry Seinfeld
Looks like hes been pulling a Kramer. Walkin around, wallet-less... it seems he's getting by. 😆
I've seen his "eyes bug out" bit 100 times, found this video today and LOLed again.
He cannot not be funny.
Also we tipped our bartender 95 bucks once, at a bar/grill in downtown Chicago, and a year later he remembered us. Tip ain't no dog's name.
Why are tips percentage based? It's the same work to carry a Fillet Steak to the table as a green salad yet they'd be expecting four times the tip!
Because generally the larger the party the larger the check, & more effort goes into serving the larger party.
Because the US is stuck with prohibition tipping rules
I sat at a table across from Jerry and Mario Joyner in a New York diner a few years back. They were deep in conversation so I didn’t bother them as much as I would have liked to have said hello. It was pretty funny watching the double takes of people seeing him. I have to say that he was very friendly to everyone who approached him.
“I don’t care why” 😂
$10 on $37 is fair, no matter how much money you have.
Sure. But it's not about what is "fair". As Seinfeld said, the concern is that the stars will get negative reputations as horrible tippers... so they overtip to (hopefully) build good PR. Does that actually 'matter'? I don't know... but they can do it, so they do.
Just like Seinfeld could travel from place to place in a 1989 K-car. It would do the job. But he doesn't because he can afford to drive something better.
ShmuelWeintraub 27% is overtipping... And some k-car isn’t even relevant to the tipping situation
@@Dontworryaboutanything : 27% is not necessarily "overtipping". Why do you try and make a blanket rule about it (for other people, naturally, because ?). Maybe the service was great. IF Seinfeld (or anyone else with the financial wherewithall to leave a large tip) wants to do so, why is it your business?
It's not YOUR money Seinfeld is leaving.
ShmuelWeintraub I just stated that 27% is fair. I don’t give a shit what somebody leaves, your the one making a weird thing of a simple statement.
And it’s not even Seinfeld’s money in the bit, it’s Sarah Jessica Parker’s.
You’re an idiot, and obviously a server.
Its more than a fair but personaly i d give 40 or 45 or 50 cuz its a round number
OKAY RUclips I WATCHED
Honestly that check bit was hilarious!
brightened my day
If it’s no skin off your nose to leave a big tip and you had good service, leave a big tip.
Eggs for $3.... welcome to several areas of rural Pennsylvania and a $1.85 cinnamon roll that could be a full meal for a small person.
Welcome to India where you can get 2 full sized meals for a dollar
This is classic Seinfeld. The funniest part of this video is the fact that a Seinfeld stand-up bit is included with some "CiCGC" clips.
Thanks a lot for the video. ☺️
I really like that Jerry scolds Sarah for leaving such a mediocre, albeit normal tip.
What I think he means is, as a rich celebrity, give a rich celebrity sized tip. If I was in their position, I'd do the same. If the check was even small enough, I'd give more than the amount. Like a $5 check gets a $10 tip.
Same with Seth:
Jerry- How much tip did you give?
Seth- It was a good one.
Jerry- Was it "show business good?"
He's been funny since like...forever.
Yeah, well, you know.. that's just like uh.. your opinion man.
mobspeak Nobody fuck with the Jesus, pendejo!
My dad genuinely does the bug-eyes at the check all the time.
My favorite comedian. ❤️
Hey Jerry, I'll have coffee and drive a car with you. Hit me up my man.
sarcasmo57 I’ll go with you, but only if you pay;)
Sarcasmo doesn't tip
Just tell me when and where. I’m always willing..
Keep on dreaming sister, lol.
sarcasmo57 all right you pay...oh not me
When I become as rich as I plan I wanna tip always double or more of the actual bill. If I can afford it and make someone's day, hell why not.
THE STORY OF THE BILL LOLOLOL JERRY IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME
Always be generous with tips. It will never go unappreciated.
Except it does? You wouldn't believe how many entitled servers there are who just expect to get free money for no reason and if they don't , get a tantrum about it.
I know Jerry is not a perfect human being but he's close. Grounded, gracious and grateful. With all the fame and wealth, it shines through.
Swede here, I recently visited the US and I understand the tipping culture 100%, because in the US the service is *superb*, while in Sweden it's "meh".
what do they do that makes it superb?
I don't know either, but is probably because in Sweden you have to do all by yourself and in the US you have the normal service. If you really wanna how how to tip go watch Reservoir Dogs, the first scene. That's how you should tip not like Jerry who is a millionaire.
What do you mean ''in Sweden you have to do all by yourself''?
What kind of shitty places u hanging at bruv?
German here. I'll never understand why anyone would need a person to greet them at the entrance of a store or pack their bags at the checkout. In fact, what's up with getting bags in the first place? Bring your own damn shopping basket or put your groceries from the cart directly into the trunk like a normal person! And don't even get me started on the lunacy of having price tags that don't include sales tax...
If anything, I'd feel embarrassed and weirded out by the American "service" - strangers pretending to care about me, acting overly nice and expecting money in return? Screw that! Pay your workers what they deserve and ask more for the food if you have to, but don't put ME under pressure and act as if I'm the bad guy for not tipping the "right" amount.
Tipping is supposed to be reserved for people who went above and beyond their job description, not compensation for a screwed up system where people literally can't survive w/o it.
Not all swedes like some subservient slave at the table sucking their cock while they eat. I just want the food I ordered as I ordered it within a decent timeframe, hold the bowing, pampering and excessive title spam please!
New respect for jerry
