For servers in the US specifically it's not true that it's something extra, it's become an expected part of their compensation structure. They have a special, lower minimum wage they're allowed to be paid. (If tips don't cover the difference between that and minimum wage, they still have to be paid minimum wage.)

    I've unironically called a day with a friend a "date" before because it was one of the first times it was just the two of us and the things we did seemed date like. Despite him being straight and me being married. It was sort of a joke, but still, it definitely felt like a date. He laughed when I called it this.

    Eh, not really. Sometimes, sure, but to be honest it doesn't feel significantly different from reddit in that regard. There's always going to be some pedantic assholes on the Internet.

    Dicks The Musical is fun, but it's not really a "bad" movie in that same way. Madame Webb was absolutely amazing to watch. Take a shot every time she opens a soda can.

    spoilerShe never opens a soda can. There are two scenes where she almost does, but the way they cut it, it's almost like she's edging lol. Like she just never quite opens it. When you're paying attention to it, it's really funny.

    I rewatched Inception recently, it's interesting because it has this trope centered in the plot. Cillian Murphy's character, Robert Fischer Jr., had a father like this, and while he never believed in his son (at least as far as we're revealed), the plot centers around having him believe that he did.
