Q. How accurate are these stories?
A. Pretty much 100%.  In some cases, I am intentionally vague with details or modify non-relevant info that would be otherwise too specific and potentially make the person identifiable or able to recognise themselves.  Although, honestly, if you end up in this blog you probably deserve to be shamed.

Q. You really think people could be identified from a conversation snippet?
A. Look, internet, you scare me sometimes so I’m being safe.

Q. You aren’t supposed to listen to private conversations.
A. You’re right.  So maybe you shouldn’t talk about your sordid marital affair in a public place at full volume.

Q. Are you a terrible person?
A. Probably.

Q. Why do you eat at restaurants so much?
A. Because for a negligible amount of money, they will bring me as much iced tea as I want.  Also soup.  Restaurants are the native habitat of soup, which is delicious.

Q. Are you rich?
A. No, but I’ll take donations.  Alternatively, tip your server well next time you eat out.  Look at the shit they put up with.
