I wish people would stop with the awkward refusal when someone gives them something.

Wether is be a tip or just offering something generous, there's always that "No, no, no, you don't have to do that." Then you're like "I insist, I want to do it."

Hate that ****, just say thank you, accept the offering and move on.

This lady offered to buy me and my coworker coffee this morning, my coworker does the stupid refusal crap, I just say "Awesome, appreciate it" and go sit down.
Bodybuilding is a lifetime journey, anytime spent not bulking or cutting is a waste of time.

Yeah, it's just common manners. Accept and say thank you. Reciprocate later if you want.
