https://old.reddit.com/r/AmItheAsshole/comments/slrg0x/aita_for_how_i_handled_the_pizza_creep

I 31F am a member of a group that convenes monthly to discuss current events. After our last meeting, someone suggested getting pizza. One of our members lit up and said they knew a great place to get pizza, a small independent pizzeria. I'm all about supporting small businesses, so I agreed.

When we arrived, the manager was very off. He greated my fellow group member very enthusiastically. He called her something in Italian that sounded weirdly intimate. He led us to a table and then handed out menus. We ordered without issue, even though his vibes were very unsettling. After he left, I asked the group member who recommended the place if they knew him personally, and they said no. They said they just went to the pizzeria a lot and was friendly with the manager.

Before our pizzas arrived, he brought us an order of garlic knots. None of us ordered any garlic knots, and I tried to correct his mistake. He said that they were complimentary as a thanks for choosing his establishment. I thought this was very presumptuous. After he left, I mentioned to the table that I thought it inappropriate to serve food no one ordered, because someone might be allergic. The group member said the knots were made from the same type of dough as the pizzas we all ordered, so there was no way anyone was allergic. Still, I didn't have any.

After our pizzas arrived, we ate without issue. The problem was when the bill arrived. No one was charged for their drinks, even though prices are listed on the menu. I pointed this out to the manager, to the annoyance of the group. He said it was a perk of being a regular. I said that I wasn't a regular, and he said he hoped I would decide to become one after today. At that point I'd had enough. I said his behavior was creepy and asked for my bill to be fixed. He looked upset, but he took the bill.

The other members of the group got annoyed with me. The one who had recommended the pizzeria was visibly angry, saying that I embarrassed them and potentially ruined the awesome discounts they get. I said that I felt uncomfortable with his overly familiar behavior and that the free food felt like a power play, a way to feel as though he had authority over us. They rolled their eyes and said I was ridiculous. They then got up to go talk to the manager.

They came back, slammed my new bill on the table and then stormed out. I paid in cash and left quickly as well, as I felt uncomfortable. I've been thinking over the situation and can't think of anything I did wrong, but some of other group members I texted said I went way overboard. Did I?

Even on this site, which is practically dedicated to trolling, people still do the thing where, after seeing a very obvious bait post, they go "Darn... this has to be a troll man... I refuse to believe that humanity is this f*cked up :marseydepressed:". The subtext, of course, is "I genuinely believe this is a real post and I'm waiting for someone to reply that it is so I can add it to my worldview". I guarentee someone's going to reply to your comment with "The sad thing is that I actually knew someone who did this so I'm like 99% sure it's true". I fricking hate you all.

It honestly amazes me that anyone takes anything posted onto social media as real. I just told some cute twink on this site I used to work at a local sandwich place and the closest thing to a sandwich shop that I’ve ever even been to was a fricking Starbucks. Why the frick would anyone be honest on the internet?

Yeah, it's just so over-the-top.

Also the most unbelievable part is that the restaurant just gave everyone at the table free drinks when the manager didn't even really know them. Someone being neurodivergent might happen, and I could even potentially see them throwing in some free garlic knots (no meat, they probably cost pennies in ingredients). But free drinks, especially booze? No way. Not unless you were actual friends with the owner.

That being said, I remember this coming up back on /r/drama, where someone mentioned that calling out bait was like watching a movie in a theater and calling out the obvious plot twists. Like just sit back and let it happen. If these r-slurs bite, let them bite.

It’s a normal thing when you regularly buy from mom and pop pizza places. You get special prices etc. Pizza is a pretty profitable business.

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

I mean sure. Maybe they add extra toppings for you without charging you or something. But the drinks probably make up at least a third of the bill (assuming we're talking about beers and stuff), if not more, so you'd have to be pretty good friends to get that kind of discount.
