I had a regular we nicknamed John the Baptist. He'd come in every Sunday and order a coffee for $1.90. and he'd leave a $0.10 tip. He'd take the table up for hours sometimes, with whoever he decided to bring with him to talk at about religion. By the end of it, with all the free refills, he'd go through about a pot of coffee. I don't know where he kept getting people who were willing to listen to him. But I did notice that nobody came back twice. The waitresses would all fight over who didn't have to deal with him that day. He was so horrible that I still think about how goddamn horrible he was all these years later. It's been 23 years since I worked there. He's the only one I remember.

That's actually my uncles in name in French, Jean Baptiste. He's a gross pervert. My one cousin spotted his profile on Tinder. Another has seen him on dates. He's been married for over 50 years.

I once met a man named John LeBastard. Very cool guy, funny, down to earth. You gotta wonder about names...
