I agree about tipping more if you are with someone who takes up extra server time or effort. When I used to go out with my Mother in law she would ask a million questions then spend 10 minutes explaining why she asked those questions then an extra 5 minutes of conversation every time the server delivered something to our table. By the time we were done I always felt like the server would probably pay us just to go away:-) My MIL is also a stingy tipper so I would usually just leave what the tip would normally be(hidden under a plate or cup) and what my MIL left was extra for her difficulty level.
