At the risk of de-railing this into a tipping thread, I don't know how you can tip any less than $2.88 on a $12.12 tab. I mean, if the service was outright vindictive, then sure. But if it was crappy because the girl had 17 tables or even had 4 tables but one of them had 11 people, then how anyone can leave less than $15 on the table is beyond me.

I'll tell you what's lame. Leaving an 8 cent tip. That's an insult. If you want to make a point, don't tip at all.
At this point, I'll admit that I once left a 24 cent tip (still, because it rounded up to the nearest dollar). That was because she thoroughly deserved the insult. That was one time out of the hundreds or even thousands of times I've been in a tipping situation. That had less to do with the service and more to do with her being a class 'A' C-WORD.
