Those are cogent points. But I for one am not particularly convinced that this is discussion. It's just telling someone "Okay, as long as you don't do [this crappy thing you never mentioned even wanting to do]!"

It's not opening up a conversation about what situations are and aren't okay, it's just interjecting this weird qualifier that may not even apply to the OP's situation at all, yet people are bringing it up anyway. I mean look:

"I'm thinking about ordering pizza for dinner."
"That's cool, as long as you don't yell at the delivery guy and then stiff him on the tip."


That's not a discussion about the tipping system in the U.S., customer service, what constitutes a fair minimum wage, or employment practices that allow employers to pay well below minimum wage with the expectations that their workers should be able to make up the remaining amount in tips. It's not a discussion at all. Like the original comment, it frames it as a personal admonition - as long as YOU don't do this bad thing. It takes an innocuous statement about ordering pizza (which contains no threat or being a bad customer) and puts it on the table as though the statement IS about being a bad customer.

That's what I find weird and slightly self righteous about the whole thing.
