I think way back we had a tipping thread, and I was on the higher end of the tipping scale. What do you tip? $10? For $10 I'll drive there myself, I'm lazy, but not that lazy.

Realistically, as soon as the delivery guy is a delivery babe, then I'll go past $5. It's a sad, sexist world we live in, but there it is - the KFC guy is a middle-aged black dude who sometimes forgets to shower, so he gets $5. If instead it was delivered by a young black hottie who caused *me* to have to go take a cold shower, she'd get $10-$15 and I'd be 300 pounds from ordering KFC all the time.
