Last names, sex and you

Ide and CdM are teetotallers. Extrapolating national or class characteristics from that fact is pretty silly.

I wasn't, I was extrapolating from having gone to American restaurants in America with Americans who, shockingly, weren't Ide or CdM. I have also been to Chicago, which seemed very London-like in terms of pedestrian and public transport accessibility. Though I did get carded when I ordered a bottle of wine

Weird. The Americans I've hung out with have been drinking as much as everyone else when they weren't driving.

Money and I = real America.

I didn't realize we were talking about after work drinks in the city.

I mean you seem to be big on calling people assburgery and I think your post is a good example of that. How am I supposed to predict the scenario that you would be in?

I didn't realize your 'burbs scenario was apparently limited to getting shitfaced with $4 pitchers at TGIFriday's after the company softball game on Sunday.

I was still on the "drinking with food" theme, and the only restaurants where you're going to eat that is worth spending the money on non-swill wine is downtown, where you meet your clients, partners and what have you;  you're the one that extrapolated the concept of designated drivers to encompass clubbing.  

But I hear Applebee's has a fantastic house label.

Well in the scenario that you are just now outline (), I think that you would have a drink or two and then be sober enough to drive home once done entertaining your client.

.04, pal.  Your drink or two is enough for the handcuffs here. 

Besides, it's not a true client dinner unless the wine tab eclipses the meal tab, the degree of magnitude dependent on the contract dollars involved.

Client can get smashed, sure.

Can or won't?

The dangers of writing a post while on the phone!

I was just making a silly.

[garbon]

I realized though that the first sentences wasn't even my complete thought. I meant to say that I couldn't speak for uncivilized places.

[Ideologue]

Say no more.
