Tippy is the digital mascot of modern tipping culture. He's here to shake you down for extra cash with his weapons of surprise and guilt. Yes, you will be asked to tip for the most absurd reasons by businesses that have no justification to ask for a tip, such as utility companies and library reference desks.
Kurtis Scott created this cartoon showing Tippy interacting with a meat-based lifeform in an effort to extract valuable resources. He's not really persuasive. But like a lot of hustlers, he profits from people being unwilling to stand up for themselves in the face of emotional bullying.
