Like, they have a cashier and work behind the counter, then they call you up and you get your stuff yourself. At no point is there a waiter you checks on you or hands your food to you, and often there's an expectation you throw your own trash away and put the dirty dishes somewhere.

And they still ask for tips? Why? Just cause they want free money? I mean, yeah I know that's the answer to my question...but why be so obvious and tacky about it?

Not what it actually means, plus that doesn't even make sense considering it's paid AFTER the fact. (That's not even counting that it seems to conflate "insure" with "ensure")

He's talking about the ones who don't provide that type of service. No waiters or waitresses. No one that cleans up your mess.

You mean tip jar-type places? Those don't have the same expectation for tips as full-service restaurants and delivery drivers have.

Yeah, you don't have to tip there, TC. Nobody expects you to. They're just there because people want money.
