It's funny, I wrote about it once on another similar thread here, but I remember once being felt sorry for when I arrived at a restaurant alone. The waiter couldn't really believe that I'd be lunching alone and kept asking me why I wasn't having lunch with someone. If I remember correctly he said "Alone? By yourself? Don't you have a brother or somebody to have lunch with?"
Another tip to waiters: Mind your own business.
