I do like the belief that they are both not a US citizen and are one at the same time depending on convenience.

This sounds like the kind of person that breaks one of those Starbucks pay-it-forward chains but then after breaking it tries to order more stuff while trying to make the barista charge the person after them

(sidenote: I’m not a fan of those chains and wouldn’t judge anyone who breaks them)

After reading about those weird pay it forward chains it seems like a completely idiotic thing that just puts social preassure on the person behind you.

I am glad we don’t have those here in Sweden, and if I am ever in the US and happen to be forced into one, I’ll ask them to skip me and pay for myself instead

They can’t skip you though, because your ticket already got paid. They can’t just move the payment, that looks like criminal activity. They could void the payment that happened and let you pay, but it breaks the chain.

as a non American if someone else bought my drink I’d just think… wow, cheers mate. and probably wouldn’t think about doing it to the person behind me. isn’t that the point though? if I’m obligated to pay for someone else, it’s no different to just paying for myself

stoy ,

Exactly, it is just extra social preassure to pay.

Terrible concept
