Call me blue collar, but I am not into the fancy cocktail crowd. I find it easy to remember to say, “Bartender, gimmie a beer.” Simplicity at its simplest.
When I lived in Boston, there was a restaurant/bar in Copley Square that I would go to. When the colleges were in session, you’d find a number of female guests there on a Friday/Saturday night. Invariably they’d order the fancy cocktails that were big in the 80’s. There was the one server who would ask them if they knew what went in the drink. If they told her what the ingredients were, she would accept the order. if not, she’d politely let them know that if they didn’t know what they were drinking, then they didn’t need to be drinking it. Imagine that happening in this day and age. I WAS REFUSE SERVICE!! I’M I’M GOING TO POST WHAT SHE SAID ON SOCIAL MEDIA, AND WANT HER FIRED!

Order three snakebites. The first two you drink. The third bite takes everything left in your wallet.

Reminds me of the bar tender who also ran a hardware store. He sometimes got his professions mixed up.

Hmmm… the Wizard of Id Classic strip today also features the jester. He has three bell tassels on his hat…

If he can’t say it NOW, you don’t want to know what’s coming later!

A good bartender would figure out he means a margarita, and get one for him, if he is sober enough to sit on that stool, he can have another drink.

I have heard of (but not tried) a drink called “Freddie Fudpucker.” I understand the the best part is someone trying to say it after having a few.

You can tell when a person has had too much to drink by the way they say “sit” or “city”!
