DonVonIn fact, in a group restaurant bill situation, argue down every single deduction you can, and if you're really good, get other people to unknowingly pay for your stuff when they get frustrated and toss a $20 even though their portion is $12. The trick here is to go last when people are deciding the payment structure...by that point, others have overpaid, and your proportion has likely shrunk.

I think you're a little befuddled, amigo. Whenever an alpha like me has to eat something plebeian like "pizza", I understand it is my god given right to eat that pizza. So after I'm done eating, I simply walk out. I don't pay a dime, I don't even wait for the check. It's society's obligation to provide me food because that's what I deserve. Let all the betas fiddle around with the check...whatever that is.

This is exactly the behavior I have been observing of alphas, together with #5.

1. The only people with Roman numerals in their names that I know of were rednecks from the South.
 
Boreed^ That post is so gamma dude.

Mi Hijo, save your unprestigious whining for the next post in the series, What it Really Means to Be "Gamma", which I have to admit would be a totally Omega move.

What would be the delta on the posts? I'm too plebeian to know this.

The amount of Spanish you use really hints at your lack of actual prestige.

 

When it comes to females, make sure you get right into the "friend zone," and then complain about it.

Mostly, just complain. And never maintain eye contact.

"That dude is so haole, he don't even have any breath left."
 

What if my name is Robin Thicke?

Baby you're the perfect shape, baby you're the perfect weight. Treat me like my birthday, I want it this way and I want it that way. It makes a man feel good baby.
