You're not funny, don't try

If you work in a restaurant, or frequent one that has an open kitchen and you happen to see a cook pounding out pieces of meat with a mallet, do the world a favor. Do not make a "beating your meat" joke. That shit wasn't funny the first time I heard it 20 fucking years ago and it ain't funny now. "Hey! Looks like you're beating your meat!" Hardy Fucking Har! I'll beat your fucking kneecaps with this thing, asshole! When someone gets stuck with the tedious duty of pounding out 20 or 30 pounds of meat they will be in no mood to hear your lame-ass attempts at humor so don't do it. Not that cooks have a problem with masturbation humor or anything, it's just the simple fact that that joke sucks and we've all heard it at least 8,000 times. Stick to what you do best, shutting the fuck up.
The chef hates you.
