While I wait for Whomageddon to finish airing so I can download, here's a poll!

[Poll #1218262]

I'm just curious about the art of tipping; I'm well-versed in the art of restaurant tipping (having grown up with "home cooking" being various Kansas City restaurants), but I'm always unsure when it comes to those other kinds of tips how much I should give. (I usually end up going for the high side of what I think is acceptable, because I'd rather err on the generous side, but then I wonder whether I'm tipping TOO highly.)

Note that I ask for "on average"; what I mean by that is, how much would you tip for acceptable to good service in this area? Also, if any of these results don't apply, or you have other thoughts about tipping and such, post them in the comments!

I watched Who and OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok as for tipping I do 20% for restaurants, because it's easy to figure out the math. One dollar for every 5 on your bill.

Hair cuts I just give $5, I just get a cut, but if I was getting more done I might give more.

I don't ride in cabs often and every time I have it's be frighting, so only 10% for them

And if it's just a coffee shop they just get some change. I have worked for places like that myself and I don't see a reason to tip them big, it's pretty easy work, but when busy it can be crazy so tips can be appreciated.
