I’ve done this, and I can totally see now how rude it is. When you come into a restaurant, most likely you’re coming with someone else in the hopes of chatting over a nice meal. That’s cool. But in the future, save long stories and drawn out conversations until AFTER you order. I’m sure there’s nothing worse than your waiter/waitress having to return to your table four or more times after they first popped up asking you what you would like to eat because you just HAD to tell your girlfriend immediately about your relationship troubles.

Summary? Order first. Gab later.
