I would have less problem with tipping if people would stop using it as a bribery system to get more attention and just tip standard like most other people.

I just view it as a tax unless something amazing happens, like I fall down a well and they rescue me.
I've lately started rounding up to prove to myself that I'm a nice guy, but my tip distribution looks something like this:
15% tip - 0.1% of my tips if the person is a total dud.
18% tip - 2% of my tips.
20% tip - 65% of my tips.
21% tip - 30% of my tips.
25% tip - 2.7% of my tips.
50% tip - 0.2% of my tips on smaller bills, just because I feel like a nice guy that day and the cute waitress touched my arm affectionately.
