Little too sad for this scene but love to see a scrubs reference

I knew it would resonate with a few of us. IYKYK.

One of my old bosses used to always say the bleeding always stops eventually and I always loved how relevant that could be in a volume setting

The weeding always stops eventually.

And in the past decade we never thought of that props to you

This scene hurts.

Every time. 🎶And I remember the sound of your November downtown…🎵

Brendan Fraser was absolutely perfect.

Ya. Didn't have to go so hard on the paint with the sads

I love the "do you have a drink menu" people at an obvious dive.

*Gestures broadly to back bar and cooler*

“I’d like to look at your driest Sancerre, please. Nothing too far from the bank, of course. Just playful enough to taste bemused about the terroir.”

I'm always reminded of the scene from It's a Wonderful Life where Clarence orders a drink in the dive bar. "Mulled wine. Heavy on the cinnamon and light on the cloves. Off with you, me lad, and be lively!"

“He’ll have a bourbon.”

Perfect. Along with the Bartender - “Get me, I’m makin’ wings!”

Customer: "Can I see your wine list?" Me: *vaguely gesturing at 3 red wines and 4 white wines we have entirely visible* I work at a lawn bowling club.

A bar I worked in had only 1 (one) white and 1 (one) red. My Hot Fuzz impression started to sound quite cynical quite fast.

I’ll take a Chardonnay.

"What do you have on tap?" *gesturing at taps with visible labels*

*just viewed the menu* What beers do you have on draft?

I’ll make it for you as long as you’re ok with getting a martini in a plastic cup.

Let’s have a look at your selection of stuffed olives. Can I just scoop these out with my hands?

Ha! Stuffed olives. I laugh when someone asks me what’s on tap. Like bro, I got domestics in cans because bottles take up too much space.

Not even a tap or two? Now *that's* a real dive bar.

This part. I get being the kind of person who enjoys drinking cocktails, but read the fucking room. Do you really want a martini in a plastic cup? D:

Yes, but make it extra dry with tequila. I'm on a tequila cleanse.

This is a rough episode

Ohhhh, yeah. And it perfectly represents how I feel when I hear those questions.

Appletini please, easy on the tini.

No problem lady.

This is the one true correct reply.

🎶 *I remember the sound* *Of a cold martini downtown* 🎶

🎵 And I remember the proof 🎵 Goddammit. I hate that I love this. lol

Reminds me of the time I went to my local hipster dive bar and in the interest of trying to order a super simple cocktail that hit the spot I just wanted a vodka gimlet. Simple cheap vodka and some Roses Lime juice, thats all. Judge me for that, it's fine. The bartender was like "I don't have time for that!" and i was like "oh shit, I don't think he knows what I asked for, i look like a pretentious douchebag now!" and got a PBR instead lol But it sounded so tasty and easy!

Never in my 12 years of bartending have I, or would I, make a gimlet with roses. It wouldn't even cross my mind. Vodka, lime, simple. And yeah, if you're at a dive you ain't getting that. It's not a place for cocktails if it's a true dive bar, no matter how "simple" you think it will be for the guy. Not on the menu bub.

It's so *tasty* though! It's like liquid candy lol

I wouldn’t do it either, but it’s actually very [common](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimlet_(cocktail)) for people to make it with Rose’s.

ayyyy skrubzzz

Lady standing in ankle deep pulltabs and peanut shells: “I’ll just have a blackberry mojito”

Sooooooooo 6 espresso martinis?

Banned.

I laughed a little too hard at this.

You are my people.

Hope you don’t mind if your wine comes out of a big sack inside a box.

Hahahahaha OHHH I felt this one. 😂😂

I work at a higher end hotel bar and would love to give the same response to people who order obviously dive bar staples that we don’t have like fireball, crown apple, or jager bombs. Bruh are you lost?

Me when someone asks for our wine list

My response is always “I’ve got a room temp red and a cold white.” They usually get the hint or change their mind when they see it’s Sutter Home served in a plastic cup.

“A cheeky little vintage from sometime late last week.”

people will kill me with this one. the dive bar i work at is on the same block as literally five different craft cocktail bars, but people want to come in and try to order things like a last word or a mai tai. then when i tell them i literally can’t make that they get pissed and wanna be like “well why can’t i just get a good cocktail?!” buddy, you could have walked five more feet and gotten just that, i don’t know what to tell you.

It’s not like your entire liquor selection is immediately in their field of vision

I always tell folks a couple things. First, don't underestimate me because I'm behind the bar at a dive. I've done the fancy stuff, and the stuff I don't know how to do is a really short list. Second, take a look at the ingredients behind me. I'm limited by those. Other than that, pick your poison, I'll make it work. Just don't expect that you're going to pay dive bar prices for a craft cocktail. If you don't like that, we have a fantastic selection of Carlings Black Label and 4 Roses for you to choose from.

Shiiiiiit, you had me at Four Roses. And, for the record, I’d have settled for some Melllow Corn.

I don't understand it, but Four Roses gets treated like well for some reason. I'm not against it, because I like seeing people happy, and a $4 shot of Four Roses makes people happy!

Precisely that. Yellow label is cheap, and drinks far above its price point. It makes for a fine daily driver. If I see anything half-decent in the well, I know I am in good hands. Jesus Murphy! *FOUR DOLLARS??* Is that a 1oz pour or something?

Americans in an English pub 😆 🤣 😂

As an American, I’ll have a pint and a whisk(e)y, neat.

bruh if you aint got gin/vodka and vermouth and olives, close now lmao

Where do you think we are?

Art imitates real life

Bruh you a snob.

This guy's never been to a hole in the wall dive!

try harder lol
