Perfection

I'm pretty sure that's just social anxiety and not being an introvert.
- Damn, I never considered that combination before. Being extroverted with social anxiety would be awful.
- Could be because someone is introverted as well, and just can’t be bothered to deal and talk to the waiter to sort the issue out.
  
  That's me. I'll also eat pretty much anything, so it's really not a big deal.
  My wife won't do it because of anxiety, though.
  
  That's less of introvertedness and more a lackadaisical attitude
  
  Yeah, there's definitely a hassle vs reward calculus that quickly gets figured. Usually the hassle side of the equation is a little too high unless its something that can be quickly and easily fixed. Like if they forgot something it's very easy to just go "oh, and can I please get ..." which usually immediately reminds them and they go grab it.
  Or if the food got royally fucked then engagement can become worth it, even over something harder to fix. Like, if my steak is well done and I ordered med rare, I kinda want either a new steak or a comped meal.

Leaves 22% tip. Never goes within 500' of establishment again.
- Anxiety, not introversion.

That's social anxiety btw.

Introvert does not mean anti-social or social anxiety.
- True, but there is a lot of overlap. You could say that the social anxiety is what makes some people an introvert, since they just exhaust themselves from too much worrying.
  
  Still though. People ought to stop equating the two.

For me it's because I'm hungry AF and just don't want to wait for them to fix it. Not being that picky helps.
- I'm the same. Like I like plane food. Because, whatever man, someone brought me a little parcel of food to eat. I'm stoked.

Now that you mention it I think Ultron was just embarrassed they showed up before he was ready and was too shy to ask them to leave, his cover lie was full of holes.

False. I am definitely an introvert but if I'm going to pay for it, I'm going to get what I asked for.

Most of the time i don't even know what i want so any food is good
- Same, like no need to get angry on my behalf. I am literally happy with this too

Wait but hear me out. Imagine big genius scenario where you intentionally order something else counting on waitress getting it wrong so you end up getting exactly what you [secretly] wanted. Outsmarted outsmarting

"But I know no matter what the waitress brings, I should drink it and always be full. Yeah, my cup it will always be full." -John Popper, Blues Traveler Song: Run Around

I can relate. Most of the time this means a lot of regrets. But sometimes it leads to welcome discoveries.
