Waiting (2005) - Indie Trash AND Comedy Gold
Watch Justin Long, Ryan Reynolds, and Anna Faris wait tables at a bullshit chain restaurant in Anytown, USA. Their busboys are worthless stoners. Their manager is as power-mad as he is bald. And their line cooks (led by a grungy Dane Cook) get quite creative in fucking with the food of a proto-Karen in the restaurant.
But the highlight of the film is Alanna Ubach (seen here) as the hot-tempered senior waitress who we all secretly wish would serve up our plate of nonsense.
The film was made before Ryan Reynolds and Dane Cook became douchebag famous, so their performances here are at just the right level of "grateful starving actor."
Enjoy!

I love this movie too (even though Ryan is playing the same snarky character as always). He had really good chemistry with Anna Farris in Just Friends.

As gross as it is I'll always love the "don't fuck with people who handle your food" scene. This movie got it right on asshole Karen/Chad customers.

What about the wife-beating hillbilly stereotype?
"I'll have a steak and two bourbons. She'll have a house salad and a Diet Pepsi."

I'm a gay guy that worked as both a line cook and a server at TGI Fridays back in the late 90's. This movie is spot on accurate.

It is a funny movie but Justin Long makes my skin crawl.

R6 did anyone ever visually assault you by flashing their pubic hair whilst hissing?
