    People seem to be throwing a tiff over the bite from the center of the hotdog, but the real sins is not putting mustard on the dog and putting katsup on the hotdog, equally.

    The weirdest thing here is them calling the Costco cashier a “line cook”

      What difference would it make to the shitpost if it was an AI edited card in the picture, gimp edited, or someone printed out the card themselves? Or even they used AI to make the card and then printed it out and took the picture.

      Why would one be slop and not the other?

    Funny

    Years sober alcoholic here realizing despite being an often loud obnoxious sloppy drunk getting in several fights (from running my mouth not attacking people), I never was cut off. (Except once by a buddy at his house party, which feels like the opposite of how this distribution should land.)

    Is it that I just instinctively found dives where my shenanigans were tolerated, or does it take some kind of lower bat like attacking or sexually harassing people?

    Just curious about others’ experience. Thanks to any willing to share getting cut off stories.

      I think a money-making establishment will always have a background incentive to make money, which will inevitably interfere with helping a person or even following the law, whereas your friend has mainly just the relational incentives to help you not hurt yourself or put yourself in a bad place

        That brings back a memory where I was early 20’s, and a coach who took a group of us out drinking taught me specifically that.

        Seeing coach starting to square up with some other asshole, “Hey coach security’s watching us. Maybe we should just go.” He laughs “Do you have any idea how much we’ve spent here? If anything, they’re thinking of kicking him out.”

        He was right… technically with that specific statement. In every important way, he was very wrong. He was someone I respected immensely though, and I definitely absorbed the lesson at the time

        Except that financial incentive makes you 100% responsible if that patron you let keep drinking leaves and kills someone on the way home.

        Bars and restaurants have an obligation to know when to cut people off. They have a legal responsibility, and if they fail that could lose their license forever.

          I’m pretty sure that’s only specific states or locales in the USA with liability laws for over serving. But also good luck to the prosecution proving a single bartender or establishment was the reason a person was overly intoxicated. In my non lawyer opinion a simple defense of “idk if she drank more before or after showing up or was on any drugs” would probably be more than enough to give reasonable doubt. But IANAL so maybe I’m off base.

          I’ve never actually heard of a case of that being prosecuted in Ohio (where I live and we have laws about overserving customers). I’m sure if I look it up I could find something but it just seems like the sort of thing an AG would have difficulty getting charges to stick.

          Maybe it’s rur… rurality?

          While I did sometimes get way too drunk in city bars too, usually that would have been with a group and had far less exciting adventures.

          Also, it occurred to me that there’s a pretty large slice of those times where I was blackout, so maybe I was cut off many more times than I remember.

          😮‍💨 I kinda regret commenting about it. Starting to remember a lot of embarrassing shit

            But congrats on the getting sober now. That is a monumental achievement that most people never have to struggle with and you should be very proud indeed of it. Very well done indeed.

    My son pretty much eats his hot dogs this way. He eats a lot of foods this way. When he eats half a donut, it’s usually the top half.

    For all of my fellow Chicagoans who, like me, are seeing this with no warning or preparation, I can share support resources, and I’m here if you just need to talk about it.

    Edit: for those in need of assistance.

      One Christmas I asked for the neon green relish for Christmas. My cool bil (who ran a hot dog stand) sent me a big assjar. Hell yeah.

      It’s fine, that’s just blood from their nose because of the head rush from slurping the entire garden up with that courageous bite. Do not correct me, this belief is going to get me through the rest of the day

      Well, I’m here for you as long as you don’t put a drop of fucking ketchup on that dog.

      This is a joke. That card is something bartenders give people who are drunk in some bars. Someone edited one to say Costco and photoshopped it onto a picture from a food court

        As someone who has worked in bars, that’s one sure fire way to piss off someone in a drunk state. You need to bring it with conviction and without making things confrontational.

        Hiding behind a formality is probably the worst idea.

          Well yeah, I didn’t say it’s a good idea. And as of covid days, practically every interaction type you can think up will piss someone off to an irrational, performative and base instinct level that makes some wonder if humanity had a good run but it’s all downhill from here.

        Surprised Lidl didn’t put up a picture of me and a notice “do not allow to buy veg” when they were selling packs of veg for a few pennies before Christmas last year. Several other shops did the same but I bought most from Lidl.

        Pickled it in bulk (think branston pickle kinda thing) and still got several 0.5-1L jars of it left. Also ate a lot fresh, some cooked into stews and frozen. 10s of kg in total.

        I live by the sea. Almost tempting to try out seawater pickling if they do it again. That is cheaper than vinegar. Use some 25L brewing buckets?
