…but the bartender had no idea what i was talking about.

(This, a thank you post, to whomever anonymously sent me a copy of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. While I kind of enjoyed being made fun of for not having read it, it was really good to finally do it.)

  1. Someone should start a blog where they go to different bars and order that drink and chronicle what happens. Surely something like 5-10% of the time you’d actually get a drink, right? And maybe another 10-15% of the time the bartender would ask how to make one, and you could just make up something on the spot, and maybe sow the seeds for a good future controversy.

  2. Are you trying to tell me that 5-10% of all bartenders are actually from another planet?

  3. If I was a bartender, I would definitely have a recipe.
