Yuck. Who does that? There is no telling where the hands that sliced that lemon have been or whether the lemon has been washed.

Bartenders are turning away from overly ornate cocktail garnishes for their own gastronomic peace of mind, but also because these accoutrements contribute more than their fair share to food waste.

Bourbon needs no akootruhmahhnn. On the other hand these guys are fags. If there isn't a lime in my ginintonix your tip will be zero cents.

Shut up and make my drink.

One kilo of waste from lemon garnishes amounts to about the same carbon emissions as a 20-minute journey in a car.

Don't create lemon wated by using them. Just leave them to rot on the trees like God intended.

You want to see something to turn your stomach check out the drink dispenser and the ice machine at most bars.

You strain at a gnat and swallow a camel.

Bartenders take great lengths to ensure that food is handled properly. I trust them more than regular restaurant servers.

Left-wing Puritanism: even some basic human activities are in fact sinful.

The neuroses are strong with these kooks. How do they manage to get out of bed in the morning?

NOW I see the problem. She's a neurotic because of the name Mom & Pop stuck her with: "Lucy Simon Lucy Simon Lucy Simon."

I can just hear the teacher calling on her in grade school.
