There's an old PF thread on casting of anthills, but it's really old and not open for further replies.

So I'll post it here instead.

I may have told this one before.
Mom and I went to a restaurant. Service was horrible throughout. After the meal, we just stood, headed to the door, leaving no tip. Waiter stops us on the way out. Tells mom: " Ma'am, service is not included ". Mom replies " Yes, I can tell". And we just walked out.
