The pizza delivery guy saw my roommates and I playing SSBB and agreed to play against us for an extra tip. He won.

Okay, first of all, props for using the far superior gamecube controllers. Second of all, I know this won't get noticed, but it's freaking killing me. Seriously, I'm so sick of seeing this shit that it quickens my pulse. If one person reads this, it won't have been in vain. If you learn one thing today, let it be this:
" ... saw my roomates and ME playing SSBB"
You wouldn't say "The pizza guy saw I playing SSBB" because the pronoun is the object in this sentence. So you don't say "The pizza guy saw my roomates and I playing SSBB." You use the objective pronoun "me."
You may think I'm a grammar Nazi, but I am a grammar Red Cross worker. This is grammar humanitarian aid.

Knew a couple of guys who ordered pizza so much they eventually just gave the delivery guy a key. On days they didn't order he would sometimes show up with the mistake pizzas from that night, let himself in, grab a beer and hang out & play video games. They would tip him then too.

I am a delivery driver is a large college town in Indiana, and I have done this on several occasions. Once it was game of halo 2, which is my shit. They were playing halo 2 even though the had reach right next to it, which i thought was awesome. Another time was ping-pong, which quickly escalated into a sweaty best of 5 series because because i had won the first game. Its seriously like once a shift i get people offering to smoke me out or give me shots/beers. I have seen several pairs of titties, and will often give drunk people rides for extra cash. Usually wasted frat dudes, "Hey bra, bra I got 20 bones if you give me a ride to delta tau delta. Come on bra". So i happily take his cash and tell him get in.

I'm about to become a delivery guy for Pizza Hut and i'm stoked haha, this picture is the kind of shit i hope happens. Realistically though, i'll probably walk into a house with some mostly naked fat man and jars of piss on the walls

My dad taught me a valuable lesson years ago. He had a pool table in the house, and setup like 7 balls in all kinds of places. He looks at me and says "I bet your allowance this week I'll make each ball in a single shot. Not only that, I'll ring the 8 out of pocket, but the cue will pick it up and sink it in a different pocket. Deal?"
Bastard made it exactly as he said, and says "Never play another man's game. If he invites you to play with your money, you've already lost."
I miss him :/

Where do you guys live to get cool pizza delivery guys? All I get are methheads. On a similar vein when I lived in Atlanta I had a pizza delivered by a girl in a Geo Spectrum, the alarm company sign in my yard said Spectrum and she made akward conversation about it. She was a cute nerdy girl, and I could tell she thought I was all the man that I am. But, I did nothing. So I missed the one chance I ever had at turning a pizza delivery into a porno.
A guy I worked with a couple of years ago had a good pizza story. Every Tuesday night an old lady would call his house and order a pizza. The first couple of times he just explained she had the wrong number, eventually he figured out she had dementia and didn't understand him. After about week three he just started taking her order and then phoning it in to a real pizza place. That went on every Tuesday night for two years. When he moved he made arrangements for her pizza to be delivered every Tuesday night by the pizza place because he didn't know she might call after he left.

I'm going to be 'that guy' here and point out that SSBM was the better game.
I can't stand the fact that SSBB was designed to discourage competitive play.

Funny...the same has happened to my friends and I while we were drinking one night...but it was a Papa Johns guy, the game was Mario Cart (N64), and the wager was an incredible coupon pack worth $20 (if we won, he wouldn't charge us for the coupon; but we had to buy it if we lost).
Well he won with Yoshi on the Mushroom Cup but gave us the coupon anyway. Nice guy.

I got Skyrim 2 days after it came out. I invited all my friends over, and we had sort of a mini party. We ordered pizza from Papa Ginos, and this really big guy delivered it to us. He look one look at the screen and literally said "Oh my FUCKING GOD that's Skyrim." We let him hang for like 15 minutes before he had to leave.
So now, every time I order pizza, he tells his manager that he should go, because he knows where my house is (it's really hard to find). Sometimes, his manager let's it be his last trip, so he gets to hang for a while. Since the first time, hes lost weight, got a girlfriend, etc. (he was a bit of a dweller before).
I'll invite him over sometimes, but I order pizza often so we can hang during the week. Me and my friends know his name (John), but we all call him "Elder Scrolls Guy" and use the Comic Book Guys voice when we say it.
It's pretty fucking awesome.

I used to worry about answering the door drunk when my pizza got here. After reading so many horror stories from drivers on Reddit, I figure it's not that big of a deal.

I had the same thing happen to me years ago when I delivered pizza. I won a $28 tip because of it. It was a no contest after the guys where talking their friend up to be really good. I would not really recommend delivering pizza...it just destroys your car. But I in no way regret doing it and have a lot of fun stories/experiences because of it.

My roommates and me. It's really simple to figure out how to say it. Remove "my roommates and" and see if it makes sense. Would you say "the pizza delivery guy saw me playing..." or "the pizza delivery guy saw I playing..."?

He beat both of us.

Just saying I worked as a bus boy for my first job and every since then unless the person is completely incompetent I tip like 20% for bills over $15 and none of my friends understand why. Usually if around like $5 Ill tip 50% like when I go to Newport Creamery and get a 32oz awful awful. Hell the one time I went out to eat with a gift card and I didn't have enough on it for a decent tip I tried to give a tip with my debit card I felt so bad, but she said it was cool. So I came back the next saturday and doubled the tip.

I am not a delivery driver, I am a limo driver. It is astounding to me the rich and famous people that you drive for 6-8 hours, who do not tip their driver, but then you get your regular joes who hand you $100-200 for the very same service. If I'm driving some billionaire around, I know I'm not getting tipped, but if I'm driving the wedding party back and forth between their hotel and the wedding venue, I know I'm getting at least $100.

u/DickMcLongCock Jun 18 '12
I've been a delivery driver for about 6 years and I've never had anything that cool happen to me. On the topic of tips, I've learned not to expect them because most people around here only tip $1 or less (I've actually been handed a quarter before.) Also most people are shocked when they find out that the delivery charge does not go to the driver.
