>CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Actor and New Kids on the Block singer Donnie Wahlberg recently left a whopping $2,000 tip after dining at a Waffle House in North Carolina.
>CBS Charlotte affiliate WBTV says he ate at that city's Waffle House Wednesday evening, documenting his visit in a nearly 11-minute Facebook live video. He was in North Carolina for a New Kids on the Block concert Thursday night.
>Wahlberg left a $2,000 tip for an $82.60 meal. He wrote in a Facebook post that both of his parents waited tables for years, "so when I walk into a #WaffleHouse, and the staff treats me like a king, you better believe I treat them like queens!"
Daily reminder. Some kind people who understand how shit waiters got it still exist.

Stop with the Christly stuff, you make it seem as though he ought never to have done it just because he is too typically human not to be self-indulgent.
You're an ancap, you ought to realise that he paid $2,000 for the luxury of boasting about his virtues publicly. Perfectly transactional.
He gets his boasts and the staff get a considerable bonus, everyone gains.
