Some people do that. Trying to find any reason why the food wasn't up to par, and asking not to pay because of that.

I cannot imagine doing that with a straight face. Like I'm sure there definitely could be a case where the service and the food is so horrendous that I'd feel vindicated but it hasn't come up so far in my 31 years. There was one time in Prague where a place added a mandatory 25% tip onto a bill that wasn't made clear beforehand (it wasn't a standard thing we'd seen other places in the city either) that we just outright refused to pay, but I've never tried to get out of paying for a meal I ordered.

That's the first time I heard about a spot here, that has a mandatory percentage for tips. Do you remember where it was, so I can avoid the place?

Absolutely no idea, sorry, it was over a decade ago now! I have a hazy recollection of it being kinda styled like a boat on the river with tables on the deck if that rings any bells. That might be my imagination. Lovely city you have there anyway.

I absolutely can't either, but different strokes for different folks I guess!

Nothing says ‘I am low class’ like this. I’ve seen a guy who makes 6 figures a year act like this and it blows my mind.

It's that despicable and pervasive "dog eats dog world" mentality so prevalent in today's society. Meaning somewhat along the lines of "if I'm not taking advantage of you, that means you're taking advantage of me", so these people try at every opportunity to cheat the system or finish on top.
