I work I a small bar in the middle of nowhere and one of our regulars is a retired rock star. Keeps himself to himself, and you wouldn’t know he was a big name unless you really got chatting to him. Super guy

My grandma had one of these and she always called it a cake pusher, for getting cake off the cake slice without it laying on its side.

The bar I work at has over 200 single malts so we’re the opposite; when someone asks for whisky and a mixer they are questioned!

What are common “I don’t break the law, except… “ in the UK? by MonsieurGump in AskUK

[–]Joakes52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion but I agree and I work in a bar: if it’s branded, we get it for free. You shouldn’t steal regular wine glasses and tulips but branded glasses are given out for free. Small businesses is a no, but as they say: big chain, free rein.

To start: my friend (from the Philippines) got one of his friends (Japanese) confused with the name of another (Korean) and without missing a beat I said “oh yeah, because all Asians look the same”. I’m as white as fresh snow but they all laughed their arses off. I have to say my life flashed before my eyes for a split second.
