"How dare you speak to me, lowly bartender! Get back to your work, rapscallion."

You got offended by your bartenders small talk, while sitting at his bar? Where he can hear everything? If it was so intimate, and meant to be unheard, maybe you should have been sitting at a table in the first fucking place. He only heard you because he can hear.

And he's not worried about your 5% dbag! But if i were you I would be worried about how under poured your next drink is. Your bartender is your friend. Why is it so fucking hard to be nice to them lately?

How was he supposed to know that you didn't sit there because you were looking for an authentic Wizened Bartender Experience? Now admittedly it sounds like he was pretty new an incompetent at playing this role (you're supposed to be mostly quiet - just nod thoughtfully while slowly wiping a pint glass with a dingy towel, as it's more of a Zen Master kind of role) but he's never going to get better if people get all pissy every time he tries to practice.

In short, if you want to have a private conversation, don't do it within earshot of other people and then accuse them of eavesdropping when they don't pretend to be deaf to you.

"My good man, your unsolicited and disagreeable statement must take its well-deserved place as my least favorite piece of misogyny this week."

Never go to another bar.

You're a fucking asshole. Have your conversations at home at your dining room table if you can't stand the empathetic, friendly nature of a good bartender, buttwipe.

I'm sure if the bartender had a v-neck top on with nice cleavage, you'd be singing a way different tune.

We try to be receptive as bartenders to the individual experience that each guest is looking for. Do you want to be left alone to stare into your beer or watch the game? Do you want some small talk to accompany your beer? Do you want me to give a dissertation on the history of cocktails? And although we're pretty good at it, we're not mind readers. If you're talking loudly enough at the bar for the bartender to hear you, he assumed it would be alright to chime into your conversation. If you didn't want him to participate, then tell him so.

By the way, you should listen to what your bartender has to say about whiskey. The Seagrams 7/Canadian Club/Crown Royal/Fireball/Jack Daniels that you drink sucks ass and there are far better quality products out there.

While the author is clearly a moron, I don't understand how misogyny or gender came into play in the comment section. There's a fine line between enlightenment and projection folks.

You may not have appreciated it but whoever you were with was probably overjoyed at the brief respite from your endless insipid whining.

Decent troll, B+

I hear you, brother. My priest is always chiming in when I go to confession. What an asshole. Where's Sam Malone when you need him?

Dear Oversensitive, Over-privileged Portland Douches:

Get the fuck out of my bar!

"Arrgghh!! I just want to play with my IPhone to check into a cool bar on Facebook and update my status, but this darn friendly bartender keeps trying to make conversation and provide homespun advice. So many creeps in this town, ewww..."

It's cheaper than a therapist plus they server booze. What more do you want?

Please wait...
