LOL--true, true. However, for reasons that baffle even me, I'm far more comfortable acting like a complete and utter @$$hole to cabbies than I am to other types of service personnel. It's highly therapeutic, so I justify the tip by telling myself that it's not for good service, but instead for putting up with my deliberate rudeness towards them.
