This is exactly my husband with my parents! Or, rather, this is how it started. It escalated to my husband sneaking his card under the table… and then my father came up with the “I’m going to use the bathroom” (but secretly pay instead) trick. And then we moved out of state. But that hasn’t stopped the hubby, no… He saw my parents post on Facebook that they were eating at their favorite restaurant, so he called and paid the bill remotely over the phone. To say they were surprised would be an understatement. The war continues. Not sure how Dad is going to top that one.
@@rshollis We do a version of that. When we know a pizza could help someone (ie illness, injury, funeral), we order a delivery for them when we know they’ll be home and hungry.
I come from your granny's ninja school. I snuck $ into my godsister's purse when she wouldn't let me help pay her fare to KC (an hour away), when an impending ice storm made it impossible for me to be able to take her and get back before the roads became hilly skating rinks. She thought she won...til she was at the hotel for her conference and opened her purse to pay the cab.😏
Whether I was a server or bartender, I took the money from the first person who could get it in my hand, and ran with it, leaving them there to argue. I wasn't getting caught in the middle of that! I hated it!
Was packing up to go home from visiting Granny and she tried to hand me a $20 for gas. I said it was okay and she just about slapped my face off for refusing. It was a warning tap (more a caress of my cheek) because she loves me. I ended up with that $20 in my pocket. Thank goodness it wasn't refusing seconds at the dinner table. I don't want to go to the hospital.
Look, Everyone knows that you dont eat 2 or 3 Days before going to granny. She will put Food on your Plate. That Plate will be enough to feed 2 People and you will have to get a second one of those. And dear God, hope there isnt too much left after that or you will have to take a 3rd one.
@@kaitan4160 Thank God my wasting syndrome and nausea were both after my grandma passed... although maybe she would have been more help than anything my oncologist prescribed
I was waiting for the retrieval of the card pinned to the wall by the knife. "The bank has a limit on damage from butter knives", says the teller. "Been to lunch with your mother again?"
I like how the South went from a civil war with the North to a civil war with each other... Whatever you do, you never question grandma. That's something every Southerner, Slav, and Latino should know.
That cracked me up!! I'm from a family of old south southern women and married to a Polish and Ukrainian Slav. Don't EVER think you're saying no to us paying.😄 His Dad was soooo NOT to be disputed over a bill. He'd get no kidding mad if you tried to pay, and that 6ft 4in Slav was boss of the bill. Now watching my husband and his dad when a bill arrived was exciting 😂.
I think the Irish, Jews, most Asians and people from the Indian subcontinent would agree with this, based on my observations among my extended family and friends.
Pulled this at a friend's birthday when his parents were bickering. I circumvented the main fight by preemptively handing my card to the waiter on the way to the bathroom after they took our order. Only thing that came to the table was the paper to sign on. We walked out when they were one upping eachother on the tip.
My dad and his sister would do that every time. Usually with grandma trying to settle it by wanting to pay and adding to bickering. Mom paid like this once and confused all of them. 😄
One of the reasons I can't live in the South....nobody is ever again going to put me down/shame me for not wanting seconds of anything, nor for not finishing everything the first time!
how don't they have a Renasant bank card? I feel that was a total missed opportunity :) And I do the "pay when i go to the bathroom" move all the time with my mother in law :)
@@ranjanbiswas3233 yes, 2 people, my wife and her sister. I Circumvent this now by asking the server before ordering to send me the bill. It has helped.
I just want to acknowledge the effort of those who made this video. While we watch a 4 minute video, they spend hours rehearsing, filming, editing and more. Thank you! It is worth it!
I work at a movie theater in Texas and I've seen people literally push and shove each other in attempts to get their card in the card reader first; Every single time it happens I can't help but think "It's sweet you want to treat each other but for the love of God you are holding up the line". People, for the sake of servers everywhere, decide who is paying BEFORE the check comes/you get to the front of the line.
1:45 I'm dying here! 😂 Talia really lets her accent slip when she's being condescending, just like any good southern woman would. From now on she is Talia "kill them with kindness" Lin! 🤣
I secretly palm my credit card like a sleight-of-hand magician towards the end of the meal. Then when the server comes for the "dessert check-in" I just say, "here you go. Run this when you have time!" as I reveal the hidden card. My quick draw is legendary. I pay for ALL the meals!
I have seen some very cordial arguments between some of the men in my family about who will get the check. They won't hear of any of the ladies getting it. I'm afraid they've rather spoiled me when it comes to things of that sort. I have had similar cordial arguments with friends when out to eat. Hospitality is very important on both sides of the family. We do not argue in front of the servers, though; that would be considered rude by my grandmother.
LOL. This is us when we go out to eat with my parents, between my dad and my husband. My dad had started asking the wait staff for the check to be brought to him before we even order, just to avoid argument later. We agreed at one time to take turns, but then we can never remember who did it last, or we try to fake my dad out by telling him he got it last. He may be 81, but he’s not dumb, he was onto that….
My Dad was that way until his dying day. He had nine college educated children with professional jobs, several adult, professional grandchildren, yet he insisted on always paying. The others would whine, beg, show off their platinum cards, it didn't matter. My mother and I would just sit there and finish our desert. He was even worse with me. He would insist on carrying my luggage from the airport to the car. I was his baby boy. It made him feel like he was still taking care of me. So I never complained. But I always packed light.
Having worked as a waiter, this is too true! In standoffs like this, you’d normally have to drop the check mid air over the center of the table and back away! Though I did once have someone offer to tip me more if I gave the check to them! ;)
that was SO funny! that pretty much happened to me back in october of '16: i visited my elderly aunt with my cousins. it's a rural area, and we had to drive an hour or so in my rental car. my aunt and i were haggling over who would pick up the check, but i already had the waitress run my card. when my aunt found out, that is the only time i can remember her truly being pissed off at me, and i'll be 60 in a couple of weeks. she got over it though.
You're lucky. My aunt is 85 in a small rural NC town...she actually LOOKS and SOUNDS like the mom in this video. She ALWAYS wins these contests and she WOULD NEVER get over it if she didn't. She tries to reimburse me for the rental car and fuel when we visit. It took a long time to get her to stop sending the checks for between $100 and $300 for birthdays and Christmas. I had a hard time getting her to understand that I'm a home owning (like we don't even owe on it) grown up. I still caught her sneaking a couple of $100 bills into my purse the last visit. The power of the elder southern woman is NOT to be doubted. Be careful, that your aunt doesn't get you with a sneak attack...a check in the mail in a card would be my aunts response.
@@dgeneeknapp3168 my aunt lives in western new york, but it's the same species, lol! she'll be 95 at the end of march. you'd think she's 35. prolly outlive me... she's a force of nature: her children are terrified of her. she doesn't see or get it. i do. i'm not, cuz she can't do anything to me. so i just pour a bier and visit with her. gotta be chill with ruthie. she is lonely though, which is why i usually do my part.
@@skip123davis Bless her little heart. I hope you have her many more years. I'm amazed at my aunt. She's got to be about the longest lived (never use the term "old/oldest ") person with spinabifida. She still insists on staying in her home after my uncle died and her feet/legs have really deteriorated. She was never expect to survive childhood, walk, talk, have kids or much else, and here she is...and I also think she just might outlive me. She's got 25 or so years on me, but outlived EVERYONE in her life. Ornery must be a drug they take daily to keep themselves tough and us on our toes. 😄
@@dgeneeknapp3168 that might be my only hope: i've had a lot of health problems (we'll start with 3 heart attacks), and my bestie says i'm just too ornery to kill. he might well be right. he's been through it all with me....
When the whole family goes out we each have Ninja moves and whomever snags the bill first gets the honor of paying. I never play the game unless I intended it to be my treat from the start. I usually sit back and watch to see who is faster than lightning and can get it before the others even know the bill hit the table. It is fun to watch.
All she needed to do was give him the Southern mom look. That one that makes a mom's children, regardless of age, immediately cease whatever they're doing and do whatever their mom wants them to do. No words are needed. The glare alone is scary enough. I never saw my southern grandma's glare but I know my dad never did anything to get on her bad side. Best stories from when he was younger always began with us promising multiple times to not tell grandma, even when she was 99 years old and weighed less than 100 pounds.
@@jb6712 Surprised there aren't more comments about this, why didn't they just use empty plates for the skit? Really an unseemly amount left there, should've asked for a doggie bag at least?
I used to hate being the waitress in the middle of this fight! It really does get that intense. Finally I just started printing two of the check and telling everyone that whoever got to the register first could pay.
This brings back so many memories with my in-laws. They are both gone now but it sometimes took 10 minutes or more of arguing before we could get the bill paid.
That was awesome and those bloopers afterwards that really nailed it you should put bloopers out after every one of your videos they're hilarious and they show just how human you are
One issue I see. My grandmother would try to pay my mom back for dinner. If she refused we might find some cash in our car later on or with the stuff we are taking home with us.
As a representative of all those named “Jackson” thank you Luke for your excellent performance and we hope to see much more of “Jackson” in future roles. Oh and while I have you, Talia needs to share her thoughts on the Wheel of time Amazon show please.
🤣 I do this with my son and daughter-in-law! We don't throw cards or arm wrestle though! I just have to watch my daughter-in-law! She says I spoil them!
On the other side of wanting to pay, I’ve seen “T-Rex arms.” You know, arms that don’t reach and hands that can’t quite grasp the check, all the while saying “I’ll get it, no, I’ll get it…” 😂
I’m flashing back to restaurant work! This shit happened all the time and IT GOT UGLY sometimes. I’d literally place the check down on the **other** end and come back 20 minutes later. I prayed everyone was still alive.
Talia’s 10# key ring is no joke! My mom had the same thing except it was the 80’s so there were 100 keys (half which didn’t open anything we could identify) and a huge key fob with our name on it. Good times…
There's a comedian K-von, who told a similar story about his father and uncle except it got /way/ more serous. Was quite the laugh Middle Eastern People Fight... over the Bill !) This was great, I've seen it too often. Unfortunately, both sides are picking up on the other's tricks
You guys are Great! Kinda reminds me of when I used to take my Mother out to eat every week... she would ask for the check and they always brought it to me (I was always the better tipper, I guess). Our outings ended with her passing, unfortunately. I will add this, after she turned 50 she could never beat me arm wrestling!
I watched my Dad and Grandma do this for many years, to my Mom's frustration. Sadly Grandma's health failed after Grandpa passed and we did not get to go out any more. She will have been gone 5 years in September and Grandpa passed seven years ago in a few days, and they are still greatly missed.
I expected Talia to say she used an app to pay the bill, or that she had her "son" do it. come to think of it, so many places have those tabletop kiosks to pay that you don't really need a waitress to bring a real check anymore...
My brother-in-law has mastered the art of sliding a credit card over to the waiter while the rest of us are arguing over who pays. Part of me thinks it's sweet while the other part of me is sure it's just because I'm the baby of the family by a number of years and nobody thinks I'm capable of paying for a meal, even though I'm well past the half-century mark in my life and make a decent wage. On the other hand, I have two friends who make 3-4 times as much as I do and nothing to spend their extra cash on. I'm actually a little offended when we go out to a nice restaurant and one of them DOESN"T offer to pay for my meal.
rlol this was me, my cousin, my uncle, and my dad. my cousin and I got pretty good at pilfering the check back and forth from them. my dad, "go to your uncle and get that check when he is not looking and bring it back to me" a few minutes later my cousin walks by like he is going to the bathroom and nicks it back for his dad! we probably did this about five or six times while my grandpa is giggling and laughing at us all. I did win it back more times than my cousin did tho 😈😆
I do this with my family and friends.....no violence involved. 😊 I like to show my appreciation and gratitude, especially to my Momma. A small gesture for giving me life.
Ha that's hilarious and so true! I almost arm wrestled my 80 yo Grandma over the check once. I didn't want to hurt her so I let her have it. But the next time we went out, my husband snuck to the front to pay before we were done eating while I distracted my grandma. She was actually angry with me when she asked for the check at the end of the meal and I told her we already paid. 😂
Sweet memories. Reminded me of the time Grandpa's brother came for a visit and we went to (of all places), Cracker Barrel. Oh yes, they argued. The rest of us got up and went shopping. The waitress ended up with a very nice tip.
I swear this actually happened: I was at Thanksgiving with my uncle, aunt, and their grown children. My uncle is notorious about paying the whole tab. I negotiated in advance with the waiter to just take mine off, thinking my uncle would still get a check and probably wouldn't notice a meal was not on the check. The waiter handed my credit card back to me in front of my uncle. My uncle made a big scene and wasn't happy until the waiter refunded my money and put it on his check. I shot daggers at the server with my eyes. lol Here is the kicker. My uncle then got the check and started complaining the the bill was too high. He wanted to make sure the waiter gave him a senior citizens discount. I wonder if that server learned to be more covert in the future.
As a server, that's the point where you just kinda stand it in the middle of the table ... and then stand there with one finger still on it like a chess match .... and then run like hell and take cover cause it's about to turn into the thunderdome!!!! Much love from Tennessee y'all!! Great skit!
Honestly, it's gotten to the point where I only pay for myself when I'm out alone by myself just to avoid these fights. I swear everyone around me in my family and friends circles, I've learned where each of their politeness boundaries are, and some have playfully slapped my arm that left a mark, just to pay. It's so kind, but let me sometimes, I can and would love to treat them too!
I've seen that argument over doing the dishes too. It got heated. Heated enough I remember it 30 years later. I don't remember the winner, but they did get done by somebody and they were happy.
This seems to happen with many families. My southern wife always seems to find a way to outsmart the rest of us. Also, the bloopers were a great addition. I hope that they continue doing this in the future!
That is our family exactly! 🤣🤣🤣 Now that my daughters are older and they have their own money, they get to join in! I remember fighting with my Nana over something that she ended up paying for, so I slipped the money in her purse. The next day she came by the house and shoved the money in my hand, "You little sneak! Thought I would notice? I said, 'I got it!'" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I loved the music choice. Like a life and death struggle between a group of supervillains. Except, you know, they're just arguing over who gets the check.
I love the pan to the kid when they refused dessert, he looked so dejected 😂
he wanted that dessert. probably saved room for it.
Same here. We rarely got dessert when we are out
That killed me! That was me as a kid every time! 🤣
literally me every time as a kid lol
Yess that was hilarious and honestly I totally understand 😂

My Mom's side is all like that. My great grandma would leave the money in the house. 🤣 You'd find it after the visit.
Working in food service, this legit is one of the most terrifying situations to be in
Right! And it's annoying. at that point I'd rather just go back to the computer and split the bill 🙄 😆 🤣
I would always just abide by the law of dibs. Whoever told me first got it.
I always found it incredibly annoying. Come on y'all, I've got 5 other tables that need my attention. I can't be standing here all day.
Just enjoy the show next time or just excuse yourself to get the check and set the bill purposely in the middle of the table

This brings back so many memories with my in-laws. They are both gone now but it sometimes took 10 minutes or more of arguing before we could get the bill paid.
That plotwist though hahaha ❤️ I love this so much ❤️😂😂😂
I did not even see that, it was amazing and cinematic gold
That was awesome and those bloopers afterwards that really nailed it you should put bloopers out after every one of your videos they're hilarious and they show just how human you are
Look at all the sweet tea they left in their glasses. shame shame ;)
Don't mess with Grandma!
That was a smooth move too.
This is scarily accurate.
One issue I see. My grandmother would try to pay my mom back for dinner. If she refused we might find some cash in our car later on or with the stuff we are taking home with us.
As a representative of all those named “Jackson” thank you Luke for your excellent performance and we hope to see much more of “Jackson” in future roles. Oh and while I have you, Talia needs to share her thoughts on the Wheel of time Amazon show please.
This was so goood. Cinematography, acting, and music 👌
🤣 I do this with my son and daughter-in-law! We don't throw cards or arm wrestle though! I just have to watch my daughter-in-law! She says I spoil them!
Bonjour depuis la France. I'm so glad to have found this channel, thank you for making me laugh so hard !
Bonjour des Étas-Unis et bienvenue.
On the other side of wanting to pay, I’ve seen “T-Rex arms.” You know, arms that don’t reach and hands that can’t quite grasp the check, all the while saying “I’ll get it, no, I’ll get it…” 😂
I’m flashing back to restaurant work! This shit happened all the time and IT GOT UGLY sometimes. I’d literally place the check down on the **other** end and come back 20 minutes later. I prayed everyone was still alive.
Talia’s 10# key ring is no joke! My mom had the same thing except it was the 80’s so there were 100 keys (half which didn’t open anything we could identify) and a huge key fob with our name on it. Good times…
You guys never disappoint. Always a prime content. Thanks
This is too realistic! Had family members once physically stuff money in a waitress hand to prevent another from paying. 😆
@@tdavenport720 If one of my relatives offered to pay for lunch I would do two things. I would let them pay, then I would die from the shock of it.
So true... I have definitely done both the argument (not to that extent, lol) and the sneaky pay!
Clever and well done. Thanks for this!
There's a comedian K-von, who told a similar story about his father and uncle except it got /way/ more serous. Was quite the laugh Middle Eastern People Fight... over the Bill !)
This was great, I've seen it too often. Unfortunately, both sides are picking up on the other's tricks
You guys are Great! Kinda reminds me of when I used to take my Mother out to eat every week... she would ask for the check and they always brought it to me (I was always the better tipper, I guess). Our outings ended with her passing, unfortunately. I will add this, after she turned 50 she could never beat me arm wrestling!
I watched my Dad and Grandma do this for many years, to my Mom's frustration. Sadly Grandma's health failed after Grandpa passed and we did not get to go out any more. She will have been gone 5 years in September and Grandpa passed seven years ago in a few days, and they are still greatly missed.
I expected Talia to say she used an app to pay the bill, or that she had her "son" do it. come to think of it, so many places have those tabletop kiosks to pay that you don't really need a waitress to bring a real check anymore...
My brother-in-law has mastered the art of sliding a credit card over to the waiter while the rest of us are arguing over who pays. Part of me thinks it's sweet while the other part of me is sure it's just because I'm the baby of the family by a number of years and nobody thinks I'm capable of paying for a meal, even though I'm well past the half-century mark in my life and make a decent wage.
On the other hand, I have two friends who make 3-4 times as much as I do and nothing to spend their extra cash on. I'm actually a little offended when we go out to a nice restaurant and one of them DOESN"T offer to pay for my meal.
rlol this was me, my cousin, my uncle, and my dad. my cousin and I got pretty good at pilfering the check back and forth from them. my dad, "go to your uncle and get that check when he is not looking and bring it back to me" a few minutes later my cousin walks by like he is going to the bathroom and nicks it back for his dad! we probably did this about five or six times while my grandpa is giggling and laughing at us all. I did win it back more times than my cousin did tho 😈😆
Can this be a full movie?! I'll watch!! That was the best thing I've seen in a long time!
I do this with my family and friends.....no violence involved. 😊 I like to show my appreciation and gratitude, especially to my Momma. A small gesture for giving me life.
You guys are great. Is grandma ok with giving knife throwing classes?
I LOVE THAT YOU ADDED THE BLOOPERS! I always watch the blooper reals on DVDs!!! Thank you!!!! I WANNA PLAY TOOOOOOO!
This is so true, y'all.
There was still so much tea left in those glasses! I couldn't stop staring at them with the melted ice...
That. was. hilarious.
Grandma would’ve paid right when we got in. Very unfair move. 😂
"Jackson, go get in the car."
Prime Talia Lin acting.
Who else thought the grandma would of won the arm wrestling battle? I do ! And it was super entertaining to watch. I hope to see a part 2 and beyond.
Aah, the battle of the check, perfectly done! 💕💕💕 the bloopers.
Only if there’s a Renasant bank near me, I’d be a customer in a heartbeat!
This is SO my family. I was grown before I realized that not everyone tried to fight to *get* the check rather than to *avoid* getting it!
This is so true. I love seeing the bloopers too.
Ha that's hilarious and so true! I almost arm wrestled my 80 yo Grandma over the check once. I didn't want to hurt her so I let her have it. But the next time we went out, my husband snuck to the front to pay before we were done eating while I distracted my grandma. She was actually angry with me when she asked for the check at the end of the meal and I told her we already paid. 😂
I would add that Grandma still won because she snuck cash into my purse before we went home. 🤣
As a former waitress, this is SO accurate!! 🤣🤣🤣 Loved the granny cash slam!!
Sweet memories. Reminded me of the time Grandpa's brother came for a visit and we went to (of all places), Cracker Barrel. Oh yes, they argued. The rest of us got up and went shopping. The waitress ended up with a very nice tip.
This is a no-brainer for the waitress. We say nothing but "yes ma'am" to a Southern mama! 😂
My granny would've totally understood . When she went out to dinner w/ my family she would prepay the meal. She DID NOT accept arguments .
1:08 LMAO That's granny's a ninja, or a sociopath! 😂🤣
Loved everything ‘bout this y’all!
Thank you for making me laugh at a time I really needed to!
This is when I tell the guests "Whoever hands me their card first wins! 🏆"
I'm so glad you had Granny/Mom on again! I was just thinking the other day how much I missed her videos!
Im with the kid. Bring on the dessert menu.
Theres no such thing as to stuffed for dessert.
I swear this actually happened: I was at Thanksgiving with my uncle, aunt, and their grown children. My uncle is notorious about paying the whole tab. I negotiated in advance with the waiter to just take mine off, thinking my uncle would still get a check and probably wouldn't notice a meal was not on the check. The waiter handed my credit card back to me in front of my uncle. My uncle made a big scene and wasn't happy until the waiter refunded my money and put it on his check. I shot daggers at the server with my eyes. lol Here is the kicker. My uncle then got the check and started complaining the the bill was too high. He wanted to make sure the waiter gave him a senior citizens discount. I wonder if that server learned to be more covert in the future.
Well, the first mistake was eating out for Thanksgiving...
@@williambreazeale hahahahaha, I know. But they were visiting from out of town and just had to go to that particular restaurant.
As a server, that's the point where you just kinda stand it in the middle of the table ... and then stand there with one finger still on it like a chess match .... and then run like hell and take cover cause it's about to turn into the thunderdome!!!!
Much love from Tennessee y'all!! Great skit!
Honestly, it's gotten to the point where I only pay for myself when I'm out alone by myself just to avoid these fights. I swear everyone around me in my family and friends circles, I've learned where each of their politeness boundaries are, and some have playfully slapped my arm that left a mark, just to pay. It's so kind, but let me sometimes, I can and would love to treat them too!
What an absurd statement: "I only pay for myself when I'm out alone by myself...." OF COURSE you pay only for yourself if you're eating alone!!
@@jb6712; do you know how stupid you sound trying to imply my statement is wrong?
I've seen that argument over doing the dishes too. It got heated. Heated enough I remember it 30 years later. I don't remember the winner, but they did get done by somebody and they were happy.
This seems to happen with many families. My southern wife always seems to find a way to outsmart the rest of us. Also, the bloopers were a great addition. I hope that they continue doing this in the future!
That is our family exactly! 🤣🤣🤣 Now that my daughters are older and they have their own money, they get to join in! I remember fighting with my Nana over something that she ended up paying for, so I slipped the money in her purse. The next day she came by the house and shoved the money in my hand, "You little sneak! Thought I would notice? I said, 'I got it!'" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You guys are hilarious. Brought tears to my eyes! LOL! TY...
This was beautiful and oh so true, we have a very similar problem up here on the Island but for us it’s our one traffic light.
My dad and his baby brother would try their best to sneak and pay the bill. "Got to go to the bathroom or go out to smoke" were their favorite ploys.
Mom's and thrown cutlery, that brings back some fun memories, like my brother finding his hand stuck to a table
Yes
please keep the Blooper coming..
LMAO
I enjoy watching these so much!
Love it!! 🤣🤣🤣 I eagerly await the Isbell Family skits. They are the some of the best ones! 😄😆😄
Oh my word! You so nailed my family 🤣🤣🥰 love y’all so much!!
L-O-V-E this! And the bloopers are hilarious!!
That was fun to watch! Thanks for including the bloopers as well. I really enjoy your work.
LOL. This was great. Thanks for sharing. GOD BLESS. ❤❤❤
Absolutely hilarious as always!
Loved this!! Yes, exactly!!
I love these. Keep them coming.
There were literally physical altercations at the table when we went out to eat with my in-laws.
I loved the music choice. Like a life and death struggle between a group of supervillains. Except, you know, they're just arguing over who gets the check.
