Wow. An adult who doesn't want their water refilled would have said "no, thank you" when the waitress comes by.

Oh, and it's Red Lobster, which I know has not suddenly turned into some fine dining establishment in the decade or so since I've been to one. Jebus Christ people.

Bet they didn't tip, either.

I think Red Lobster is a "special occasion" for some people, and a very few think they should be treated like it's their wedding day... everything absolutely perfect and about them.

But assaulting a server is over-the-top bad.

Here we go again.

The My Little Pony Killer: Oh, and it's Red Lobster, which I know has not suddenly turned into some fine dining establishment in the decade or so since I've been to one.

Yep, I've been once in the last 20 years. Can't see myself ever going back. The food isn't bad for for what it is, but the atmosphere is like dining in downtown Wal-Martville.

It's sad that there are people in this world who have never learned common courtesy. Saying things like "please", "thank you", "no thank you", "you're welcome" should be taught to children from an early age. Even toddlers can be taught common courtesy.

Sadly, there are still those who think that the only way to handle something that angers, upsets or displeases them, etc. is to resort to violence.

At least they gots their skrimps

I think they did their "Black Chicks Gone Wild" thing too soon for the skrimps.

I can fix adults who never learned proper manners. it's really very simple. I just need 6 weeks, several car batteries (plus jumper cables) and a copy of Emily Post's rules of etiquette.

They use glasses at Red Lobster?

I don't know about your local place, but mine seems the choice of the fatties that want to go to a "real" restaraunt.

I threaten my wife by telling her I'm going to take her to Red Lobster.

Were they raised by wolves or what? Nah, wolves have better discipline.
Damn, people are getting too freaky these days....

Then don't drink the water. The server can't fill it up if it's full. Better than going to jail.

Most of the food is God awful... But damn those are good biscuits

Not to be /internet tough guy/ or anything, but some old fashion vigilantism could have worked wonders for those biatches. Take'em out back and beat their ass in the alley way and leave'em for the rats. The police aren't going to teach them anything they haven't already tried to... some people you just can't reach--without a 2x4. Not everyone is as civil as ourselves.

TLC has really let themselves go.

I don't know why Red Lobster gets such a bad rap. I've eaten at several 'high-end' seafood restaurants such as Captain D's and Long John Silvers. Red Lobster is just as good as them.

Darden is going to have to start offering hazard pay.

I knew it was only a matter of time before someone came in here to flaunt their wealth. Thanks a lot, jerk.

Customers who annoy you.

attractive and successful blah blah blah

Left Eye actually looks better than the last time anyone saw her.

I have been to Red Lobster only once in my life, but I knew from the delicious biscuits in the headline that this would be an article about Red Lobster. That said, not even delicious biscuits could get me back into a Red Lobster.

Went a few months ago for the first time in almost 30 years...

Did not feel like throwing a glass of water at my server, who was pretty nice if I remember correctly...

DID feel like grounding my daughter for a month for using Red Lobster as her turn of "pick the restaurant"

Since then, Red Lobster has followed Olive Garden(it was an incident with her ordering mussels) as being Off limits to family dining.

My keyboard just narrowly missed becoming a soda receptacle.

CSS time:

the one on the right reminds me of when I played Barbie with my next door neighbors. A neighbor girl had some Barbie-universe doll with the hair cut very close, so the doll had a blond fuzz on her noggin. She came with wigs so we called her "Wiggy".

Wiggy always tried to screw up the weddings between Barbie & Ken. Interfered at the "does anyone have a reason why these two should not wed" moment, then her wig would get knocked off and she'd run away in shame, Barbie & Ken would get married and proceed to hump in a Barbie bed.

Also I had a neighbor many years ago who looked like that woman. She was stabby.

how you doin?

Water is supposed to be good for you

Not often you see a black woman handcuffed in an Adirondack chair.

This is no exaggeration, hyperbole or anything else...EVERY single time I went there in the past, there was ALWAYS some screeching infant, howling at the top of its lungs sitting in the booth/table right behind me. 

It's been about seven or eight years since I've been there. And it's been since around 1993, that I went before that. It looked like they spent some money upgrading the place. Too bad they didn't upgrade the Wal-Martians that seem to flock to the place.

The incident comes just six months after a cell phone video captured four female customers beating up a server at the same restaurant over what they deemed bad service.

I liked the line about the waitress who caught a beating for bad service from 4 biatches. They should just go ahead and arm them at this point. Bust some caps in those steatopyginous asses and maybe the rest of the hos will learn their lesson.

OscarTamerz: steatopyginous

Thank you for bringing this word into my life.

OscarTamerz: steatopyginous

Steatopyginous as opposed to callipygian. Good work there Oscar.

Scum

Restaurants like Red Lobster are where people who are sh*t on daily go to dish it out to innocent service workers. It makes them feel better, like they have the power.

If you need a gig waiting tables, never, ever, ever work in a chain restaurant. The tips are terrible (as a percentage of sales) and the clientele is typically 50% assholes.

It's all the mercury in seafood. It makes people crazy.

/-er

When asked what I want to drink I usually say "water and lots of it" sometimes the server only checks my water needs once or I have to ask for a refill, this will get them an average tip.Other times like at this Red Lobster they keep my glass full and they get a generous tip. I drink lots of water.

alright, the both of you: just because you got the big bucks to go to the fancy places doesn't mean it's nice to show off. i'm just saying a little humble goes a long way, Richie Rich.

What Plants Crave: I have been to Red Lobster only once in my life, but I knew from the delicious biscuits in the headline that this would be an article about Red Lobster. That said, not even delicious biscuits could get me back into a Red Lobster.

Good news is you don't have to. :)

2.5 cups bisquick
3/4 cup cold whole milk
1/2 stick cold butter, cubed
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 heaping cup grated cheddar cheese

Cut the butter into the bisquick. It helps to refrigerate the bisquick for a bit first. Once that's done, add the rest of the ingredients and stir but don't over mix. Scoop the mix in quarter cup amounts onto a lined cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. The biscuits should just start to brown when you yank them out. Brush with the following:

2 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt

and serve. Or eat it all yourself. Those jerks in your dinning room were no help making this.

I've eaten at many red lobsters, and have always had great service, and tipped well, with no assaults generally happening. Of course the places i go aren't generally inhabited by moranic gutter trash either. Way to class up the place by throwing a tantrum over a glass of water. Reactionary sub humans.

I have happy memories of going to Red Lobster for my birthday when I was a child in a landlocked flyover state. Don't ruin it for me.

/OK, so maybe the fact that they don't actually do lobster all that well already ruined it for me. 
//And I don't think tilapia featured so prominently on the menu back then. Boo, depleted stocks of wild ocean fish.

Not to question your baking expertise, but I make mine with self-rising flour and buttermilk. Seems to make a lighter biscuit.

A few aged hoodrats acting like a stereotype cannot be a good thing, but don't take it too seriously.

A pimpslap with a desert menu needs to be kept in context, nothing a few rednecks are not capable of. The word "assault" is being over-used.

The witness said as the server turned around, the customer hit her in the face with one of the dessert books.

BarkingUnicorn: Bet they didn't tip, either.

Anyone that thinks Red Lobster is a special occasion should really just kill themselves right now. I can't imagine what the rest of their lives are like.

My wife's family lives in New England and have too many great seafood restaurants to count. We live in Maryland and have the same "problem." Yet every time they visit, the first place they want to go is Red Lobster.

/crab legs and grilled fish aren't bad

superdude72: I have happy memories of going to Red Lobster for my birthday when I was a child in a landlocked flyover state.

That's what kills me about the place. I used to love to go there back in the late '70s, when I was a kid. When you're seven years old, popcorn shrimp are the bomb!

Solution:

Surround all Red Lobsters with a moat, make people swim across if they want to eat.

My last time at red lobster was wonderful. They sat us in a private area and our server was excellent. They even all got together to sing happy anniversary to us. It isn't upscale but it is nice. I'm not such a snob that I can't eat at different places.
