I was a young waitress near Nevada/Utah border where Mormons would sneak over to drink and gamble lol.

One old couple left me a stack of change “pyramid”, stacked by size largest to smallest coin.

Worst part is instead of just being dicks and leaving, they called me over to show me how clever the husband was with his little coin pyramid and pointed out the quarter on bottom, dime on top, 4 coin 41 cent total tip lol. As if he was a 4 year old with a clever idea.

Then… while trapped in this awkward hell… they told me the real tip wasn’t money. The real tip is they want to bear their testimony… I. Hate. Religion.

Lol it's dark triad personality types. Across the board, religious or not. But give them dogmas and they're even worse.

Omg I’m gonna go read more into that because it’s soooo true but I’ve never dived deep into connecting the dots completely. Thanks! They seem to concentrate in religions because it provides cover, and they love feeding off easy prey!

You let me know when testimony fills my kids' stomachs.

I was imagining a whole pyramid like a stack of cards or those sport cups, with multiple quarters at the base, not just quarter + nickel + penny + dime atop each other. That's a stack! Not a pyramid!

Also, fuck them because the grocery store doesn't sell produce for testimonies. The landlord won't accept it as rent. Unless Jesus is gonna personally come and hand over bread & fish...

Yeh it’s crazy. Like if you wanna leave $5 in quarters, ok lol. But no, this was a tiny pyramid of one coin each lol. And they thought they were clever and cute! Fucking crazy ass religious nutters.

The best Mexican food I've ever to this day was in Lubbock, TX.

So there. I've eaten my way across the United States. Texas has the best food.
