Hey all you cheap-assed douchebags who don't leave good tips: YOU'VE. BEEN. BLOGGED.

A Williamsburg delivery dude (natch) has decided to start a Tumblr that documents all the craptastical tips he keeps getting around the neighborhood. Best of all, he even includes names and addys of all his shitty tippers, so now for funzies we can go hunt em all down and egg their houses. Except, oops: that would require me breaking my "never ever ever go to Williamsburg ever" rule.

Never mind.
