Do waitresses hate being hit on?

I didnt say anything but I was out to eat and was the only one there. Cute little half paki waitress was really smiley and really really nice. She looked me in the eye even though I have trouble looking people in the eye. She laughed and talked in a really happy tone. When she put my order down, she put her hand on my shoulder and said "can i get you aaaanything else?" really flirty.

I didnt say nothing but I left a $10 tip for my $15 bill. Did I get played?

Let's talk about memorable/good times when cooking

>be me, an 8 year old kid
>see cookie monster cookie recipe in a sesame street book
>beg my parents to let use the oven to make them
>they agree but only if I clean everything when I'm done
>start mixing stuff, it's going well
>it's off by the time I'm done, overmixed to hell
>oh well, the cookies will taste good
>set the oven at the wrong temp, burn the cookies
>start crying because I'm only eight but now I know I'm a dumbass and the rest of my life will just be worse
>dad comes in, sees tough, burnt cookies
>eats them
>tells me they're delicious and helps me clean
>I believe him and keep cooking

>a few years later I figured he lied about the cookies, now I'd feel insecure whenever he said my food was good
>decide to go all out
>mushroom risotto with grilled lemon chicken and glazed carrots
>it was the best thing I had made so far
>serve it to my dad, ask him what he things
>says "it's delicious"
>"You always say that dad, how do I know you're not lying?"
>looks at me and says "It's delicious because you were passionate enough about cooking and loved me enough to make me something on your own. I'll never eat anything as delicious as the food you make for me, Anon."
>thank him while trying not to cry
>go to my room and cry like a bitch

I don't think I'd continue cooking if it weren't for him my guys

Welcome to the /ck/ challenge: Monthly edition!

The theme is announced on the 1st of every month, and submissions are welcome up until the 23rd.
After that the voting/rating thread goes up and everyone is welcome to vote on the submitted dishes.


VOTING GUIDELINES

Voting follows an 'Iron Chef' style scoring system. This means you, the people of /ck/, will judge each entry individually instead of deciding on what you feel is the "best" dish.

We will have two modes of voting:
Casual votes: Vote for as few or as many submissions as you like. Votes will not be tallied and purely for contestants to know how they are doing.
Competitive votes: To submit a competitive vote, you must vote for EVERY submission. These votes will be counted and the winner announced.

Dishes are scored out of a total 20 points, based on 4 categories (worth a maximum of 5 points each); Presentation, Originality, Appeal and Challenge Goals. You may award 0's if you feel the contestant did not meet your expectations for a category.

-Presentation: The appearance of items on the plate; plating skills
-Originality: Creativity in composing the dish
-Appeal: How appetizing the food looks/whether or not the dish appeals to your personal taste as a voter
-Challenge Goals: How closely the entry followed the challenge goal(s)

The distinction between Presentation and Appeal: If someone submits an artfully arranged but burnt steak as an entry, it may score high in Presentation but low in appeal.

al/ck/ general.

The strange thing to me is, if i sober up for 5 days, which I just did, I get a ton of energy, I do a bunch of chores - wash my clothes, my house, my car - I sort out my life, paint a picture, I meet old friends, I make an amazing dinner...etc.

Then realize none of that stuff matters, nothing has been fixed, productivity doesn't matter, and I'd rather just be drunk af and listen to music and look at HR photos
