In my country (Portugal) it's quite normal to raise the hand to call a waiter and when they come, you should say something polite if you need something or even if you have a complaint If i would want more water and the waiter was passing by i would call him or raise my hand and say something like "Can you please bring me water" or "another bottle of water, please" (In portuguese of course because he might not understand  it's their job but we (costumers) should be polite or else they might spit in your food  | ||

I kinda feel like just listening to it, you miss out alot of the stuff going on. Like it's all quiet and then incontrol says "i don't got hips for that".. (did he really try to kick husky in the head? LOL) I'd give my left arm to watch it live.. as it turns out, airports don't deal in arms anymore  | ||

You actually called day9 an ass and an "attention craving little kid". You then proceeded to tell the 15 people who disagreed with you that they were wrong and you were right because your mom taught you when you were 2. Also you claimed you were just commenting on day9's story in particular. But than you made a blanket statement that in the United States getting your waiters attention in the manner day9 described would be perceived by EVERYONE as completely rude and belligerent. None of which is true. Possibly you could have said "Am I the only one who thought day9 came off as an ass in his story?" The response might have been, "Yes you are the only one, it sounded more like the waiter was having a bad day and the story was meant to be comical to a live audience at a fan event." | ||

And who knows, their story is one inch away from Day9 obnoxiously going "Hey you!" really loud and omitting it.....it's a good story, but one that makes me a little awkward hearing it. I'm sure at least half of us have worked in a restaurant before...we have our bad days with bad customers. | ||

The response might have been, "Yes you are the only one, it sounded more like the waiter was having a bad day and the story was meant to be comical to a live audience at a fan event." To quote myself Anyone who is a waiter would probably get extremely pissed at some ass raising their hand(or pointing, which my mom taught me not to do at the age of 5) to get more food. It is extremely rude and uncivilized to get up/raise hand for a waiter, you sit and wait. They were also probably laughing because of you acting like an little attention craved kid trying to get food. In my opinion he was being a ass with the way he got the waiters attention. Pointing is disrespectful in almost all ways, other than maybe pointing to show someone where to go. I said he was ACTING like an attention craved kid. My mom is a elementary school teacher, when kids want her attention but shes ignoring/busy, they will raise their hand (like hermoine granger), they will yell her name, they will get up and bother her. By no means am I calling Day9 a attention starved kid, but from his story he was definitely acting like one. Someone said that is acceptable in other cultures to wave your hands/point to get your waiters attention where I said that is rude in the US (other than maybe upscale resturants) in most common resturants (olive garden, red lobster etc) Also yea, looking back I probably could have said it in a nicer way, but I just described the way I viewed it. Also just to say. If I was a waiter for Day9 and he did these things, there would be absolutely no problem, because that is Day9, he is a playful/silly. Problem is, not everyone knows him, so the waiter just saw some obnoxious guy trying to get his attention. | ||

They look at you, you look at them, you raise your hand just a weee bit to know you want them, and then they come over when they aren't busy. While it is a story and things could be made up, you should never point/get up/raise hand like "hermione granger" I know that is exaggerated but it has to come to mind for a reason. I can see Day9 being as playful as he is raising his hand like that, its just his personality but you gotta know when its respectful and when its not. I don't understand where you're drawing the line between exaggeration and what actually happened in that restaurant. You know that right before Day[9] said, "like Hermione Granger" he also said that he "fired a gun"? Also, according to Day[9], the waiter was the first to mention that Day[9] "pointed" at him. I'm not sure what that is all about, but I can't imagine anyone sitting at a restaurant pointing at their waiter. Especially when they couldn't even see the waiter to begin with. Which is why he raised his hand to begin with. Maybe I'm just not as cynical as you are, but I really don't perceive this situation to be where Day[9] is this evil person clamoring for attention. | ||
