[WHO GIVES A SHIT] Take-Out Delivery Tipping?

Ok, so this tipping debate ain't new. We've covered it here before and it's been discussed on pretty much every NY blog known to Allah. And yet still, there remains confusion about what the fuck you should be giving the Hunan Delight delivery dude when he drops off your General Tso's.

We just received this plea in our good ole FIPS email inbox: 

"I'm just curious if you could post something about how much people tip on delivery, cause my husband and I have been debating. He always wants to tip 20% which seems like a lot of money when you order $60 of sushi, does the guy really deserve a $12 tip? I always just want to give a standard $3-4. What is right and what is wrong?"

Now, I'm solidly on team ladypants here (though I guess I usally try to stick with $5). I mean, 20% is what I give to a server in a restaurant who remembered to fill my water glass 11 times, asked me if I wanted some more overpriced wine and filled up my goddamned bread basket after they saw that my fat ass finished the whole thing. Are you ppl really tipping 15-20% to delivery guys?

Some dude in Williamsburg says we should be. He actually started a tumblr in order to publicly shame the worst tippers in his nabe.

And sidenote: have you ever seen a delivery woman? Anywhere? I've been ordering take-out several times a week for the last 10 years and I've never seen one. They're like unicorns.
