People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

Dunno, I couldn't see jack shit in that video. In fact I couldn't see a video in that article at all. Could you? Was it there? I don't know why I can't see it but that happens to me all the time with HuffPo articles. They say there's a video, but it's simply not there for me. It's not that I can't play it. It's entirely not there.

"Red Lobster Assault" would be a good name for a band - just say'n.

Weird people will be weird.
Poor waitress!

"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." -

The waitress should be grateful she wasn't shot.
The customer was entitled to believe that her life was in danger, she could have had an allergic reaction to the wrong food.
If she FELT that her life was in danger, she had every right to pull a gun and shoot the waitress.
As did the waitress, of course.
This is a classic case of not enough guns.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.

If the waitress had been making coffee there would be reason to invoke "Stand Your Grounds."

The manager at that restaurant deserves to be fired...he/she is the one who should have called the police immediately. In a big chain like the Red Lobster, I guarantee that there is something in the manager's training handbook that would have covered this...I don't see a manager anywhere in that video, they should have been there on the spot within minutes to deal with it.
Police say tips helped them identify three of the four suspected assailants, and more charges are expected to be filed soon.
So you have to tip policemen for service now!??!!

Probably 54%....let's see who gets that obscure ref...

If she'd had a pot of boiling coffee, she might have been able to defend herself.

Too busy videoing with the cell phones to make a call.

That's actually a really good reason for why you shouldn't have all-in-one gadgets.
