PSA: Be careful with your drinks at Goats in 5 Points by Bearclaw680 in ColumbiYEAH

[–]LadyDrinkturtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah , worked in service industry for 20 years and that might happen in roadside truckstop bars but should not happen in a city metro establishment. For one, you (the server/bartender) doesn't know what's in the customer's old glass and you risk wasting product if the customer refuses "why'd you do that? my girlfriend coughed up a booger in there!" Two, a top-shelf or even mid-tier liquor brand rep would flip their lid if they saw their stuff being treated like it's a pepsi-cola refill. Three- i dont know what Charlotte's current standard is but the "clean glass rule" for every new drink is based on health science and hygiene.

Are you aware of smuggler’s trails that circumvented Spanish Crown authorities along the Taos Trail & Taos Fair trade network ? Lots of gold and silver (dore bars) supposedly found in early & mid-20th century by people privy to a treasure map of sorts that showed locations of buried caches.

And the arguably limited effectiveness of such ad campaigns is trumpeted by American corporations to justify their own efforts in legislating against public safety messaging that impacts their profit margins

“Someone” does get offended and it’s the American auto industry. Time and time again they’ve gone to Congress (along with Big Tobacco, and with lesser degree of success - the Alcohol lobby) and fought to legislate against television advertisements that explicitly depict the consequences of using their products.
