At the bar 2024

At the bar 2034

Now that's a Blade Runner sequel I can get behind.

Barmaid has a gene Simmons hairstyle

“Love incorporated…”

Asian dude practicing hockey at the bar

“Nitro oyster stout” vomits

I do like me some nitrogen and some stout. Just ask foe the oysters in the side

"Nitro Oyster Stout" is also the name of my Primus tribute band.

lol

checks available cash on hand

This place charges tax even if you pay in cash. Bartender put 3 quarters on the bar

Thinking about starting an “older people at the bar” thread

I tried that last year with my bowlo live-posting! But iirc you didn’t feel like it fit the spirit of the thread :(

Tip time; “I’m all out of cash so…next time”

Sigh

opening / cleaner guy is one of those people who can’t end a conversation. Super friendly and we like the same sports teams but he won’t shut up in the nicest way

It’s “instruct the new barback on the nuances of drying glasses” day

The biergarten in the county park near us has their "soft opening" today, but they went and posted about it on their fb page, which has like 16k followers, so it was a complete shit show. One Munich Gold and gtfo.

I’ve never had “Sorry, I’m gonna have to cut you off” said to me before today, but the bartender was just being sarcastic — she said I was being “too rowdy” and laughed

Sitting next to Legolas

Well I guess my old crush doesn’t work here anymore. Sadface

Khuranbang vibe overdose

old bartender buddy has passed away, I just found out... Haven't seen him in years, but I still have his Lambchop CD

Rips

Steven was a good guy.

I went to see The Selector with him and we had a really good time.

yeah, super sweet guy

Middle aged woman drinking wine and watching the WNBA, disagreeing with a foul called against Caitlin Clark. “She didn’t do anything!”

3 becomes 4 becomes 6 becomes 9

Calling oldest!

Woman wearing the same big white sunglasses that my friend had in 92

Side table facing fake plant

“You leaving?”
“You turned the lights on”
*pats me on the shoulder*

“Your cheapest whisky on the rocks” vs “love on the rocks with no ice”

“Aren’t you married?”
“Yeah”
“Then why are you sitting next to me?”

“Is it extra nitrous?”
“Well, yeah”
“I love that bubbly sh1t”

Thrifty happy hour heads know what this is about

tfw you walk into the bar and find a 10 on the floor

At the bar to see a friend's ex with benefits sing folk songs and then another dude tells you about the guy who got stabbed on the steps last week.

Famous 20s stoner, always in reflective shades, that lives next door, bring: his Italian family over to sell shit on the sidewalk outside the bar

If you see someone destroying 16 miller lites at the bar, that’s me, say jello

“Green River” comes on and I’m this close to getting off my stool and crab walking around the room

Back at my regular in Mpls and the bartender still knows my name despite moving away in 2021.

Win!

Morphine always welcome on the stereo at the bar

Massage Attack “teardrop / ”

hey now hey now

One of the most heard songs

Invariably, the song played after this one is terrible

Yeah, what's up with that?^^

great song but I thought it was some obscuro private press thing reissued in 2010 without a lot of fuss. lately it is fuckin everywhere, was it in a movie or something

last week I was having dinner at a random Italian restaurant in Montauk and it came on in between two oldies station doo wop hits

tbf it’s a great song. “But I think we can make it…”

They are making out and it’s no big ting

Wednesday is the new Friday
At least for this week

Ambition: Barback

That night when you had an iPa and 2 White Russians in front of you

I got bought a shot of Skrewball peanut butter whiskey tonight. The dude who bought it is my neighbor and he meant well, so I did it, but ick.

*dry heaves*

Yeah it's gross

tfw the bartender throws a lime at you and you’re not sure why

I keep smelling Chef boy r Dee while looking at this barfly’s face idk

At the bar where the server and the barback are on their phones all afternoon nbd

3:39 PM is the new 3:39 AM

Nothing complements a sunny weekend fall afternoon like Pink Floyd’s “dogs” on at the bat

Today at the bar I understood the buyback in a whole new way. I got one on my third (right?), and for the first time I didn’t feel like I needed to tip. I had tipped generously on the first two so

The best bar is the one closest to home

6:33 is the new 10:33

Close out the nearest bar every night

Did they play the whole damn song? That would be pretty awesome, as nothing brings the party like "So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone"
*Orders a half-pour of a Prairie Imperial Stout as my dessert, because a full pour at 12% is kinda insane (It's like drinking tasty motor oil).

They played the whole album

Server with seniority disappears for an hour at a time…

Where have you been all my life, dearest hard kombucha

“If you’re so smart, why are you working in a bar?”

Did you say that or overhear that?

Overheard

These drinks pale in intoxication potency compared to this chemical Christmas tree scent

an ex's dad once explained the flavor of an amaro he had poured for me as "like being punched in the face by a pine tree"

I’ve had a couple “pine tree” ales or whatever over the years and I am partial to them

I had a Shiner Xmas brew at a party years ago and the texture of lawn clippings in every sip was a real deal-breaker.

Well, yeah

Shiner Holiday is the worst, like drinking potpourri

Bartender is the female Todd rundgren

I order the cheapest thing on the board. Five minutes pass and I get served and I give the bartender my credit card. She gives me a horrible expression and waves it back

Standing around

I had time to kill earlier today and wound up killing it at a bar/restaurant that featured a drink called a "New Fashioned" that was Jim Bean, Rum, Sweet Vermouth, and Domaine Canton. Hard pass.

*vomits*

Jim Beam is good for absolutely nothing

Except drinkin’

Bartender worked with someone who had body odor and it was difficult for her. She thinks cleanliness is important, though personally, she doesn’t shower every day, because it’s bad for the skin

Keep us posted

Reminds me of that John Fogerty ad for Jameson
