"Dutch" isn't veg-friendly, by anna on Sepia Mutiny:
...me: How was dinner?
she: Can I vent?
me: But of course, my little cabbage!
she: I got robbed.
me: OMG, you got mugged???
she: Noooo. I mean…when the bill came.
me: I don’t get it.
she: Of course you do, you’re veg, too.
me: Oh, THAT-a-way
she: Yes. That. A. Way. Not a damned vegetarian entree on the menu AND everyone I was with obviously ordered seafood— not just any seafood…the market-rate stuff.
me: Ah, that which has no price listed.
she: EXACTLY!
me: Ouch.
she: That’s not even the worst of it! You know how I don’t drink??
me: Yeah…?
she: Well, everyone else more than made up for it. 3-4 each.
me: Wow, so you-
she: Subsidized a bunch of fish and vodka. What I ordered came to all of $25 WITH tax and a 20% tip…what I PAID was $72.
me: Sigh. Well, you made the birthday girl happy by being there.
she: True. But, I COULD HAVE GIVEN HER THE $50. Then she’d be happy and I wouldn’t feel so damned ripped-off.
Stop smirking, dear readers. You know you’ve had that EXACT conversation with one of your friends...

In fairly unrelated news:
Question: When is it appropriate to wear a tube top in the workplace?
My Answer: Never. I don't care how casual the office is.
Your thoughts?

Oh damn, girl, I *just* went through this last week! I work in a casual office, but this one girl takes it too far. One day she wore a strapless bustier-style dress and the next day she wore a tube top. I mean, WTF? She's not in my department so no one in my chain of command can say anything to her, but c'mon girl! Yes, you are hella cute in those outfits, but save it for the weekends! How do you not think about what you're wearing?

There are no words. :(
