    Probably nothing, but it just makes sense to tip on the actual bill. Why am I tipping the government tax?

    So now I have to figure the 25% tip before tax, then the 22% after tax, then decide which I want to pay, etc. Just tip on the pretax amount. Why is that controversial? How is that “losing rationality?”

    Why does this require any discussion? You want to pay a tip on the tax, go wild. I’ve used my method for decades, and my servers get tipped well. I don’t think I’ve lost any rationality.
