The correct way to stack plates for them is to not stack them at all. Every waiter has their own system, and there's no way to tell what it is. The most respectable thing to do is to tuck yourself in and make it easy for the waiter to reach your plates. Even handing plates to them can result in them being forced to stack plates in an inefficient manner
As a waiter, on any given day you want to spend the minimum amount of time doing the "required" things, so you can spend more time on things that dont mediately require your attention. That is to say, clearing a table faster lets you give more wine tastings, or spend more time having a chat with a table when the time comes for it
This, of course, means that a minimum amount of trips to the kitchen with dirty plates is preferred. No matter how much of the "stacking" phase is removed, it will never make up for another trip it may cause
You might see what I'm getting at, but to put it bluntly, I have never had a table stack their plates in a way that actually helps - it's always caused a second or third trip
What's more annoying is that the person in the picture has clearly never had the opportunity to ask a waiter (off shift) about what they think (as they would very roughly disagree with them), yet asserts that people who don't agree with them are in the wrong
Yeah, I hear it a lot how Arthas' story was about a man whose ideals were slowly corrupted
When I played through WC3, I thought his sudden shift in tone was honestly jarring, as his previous (albeit morally questionable) decisions were made during a time of war, where the entirety of humanity was on the brink of collapse. And then I'm supposed to believe this demon showed up, taunted him and Arthas just... followed him? Because he was getting irrational?
I'd call that sudden shift from "I'd do anything to protect my kingdom" to "gotta beat up this demon real quick, taking a large army and leaving the northern empire exposed" completely unexpected
Then he got his soul stolen, after which point you can hardly blame him for anything that happens
I'm about 10 hours into silksong and it's amazing, don't get me wrong. But the majority of the boss fights seem... cheap?
Like, their difficulty doesn't come from their various attacks, or their environment. Instead, it usually comes from the fact that they do double damage, or the fact that they spam the same two attacks over and over way too quickly, or the fact that they can do the same add summon three times in a row and make what was a controllable situation practically impossible
Now, I've 112% the OG hollow knight and beaten true radiance, so I'm not against difficult boss fights. In fact I relish the feeling of learning their moves and patterns after every single death
But when the moves are "ram into wall. Then ram into wall again" it becomes incredibly annoying
I can't remember their names, but there are a few shows like that (mid 20s man + teen girl). They're more fetish-esque than anything though, unlike the above who are in regular shows/games more so
