so many people are getting mad at this and I'm just chuckling. you all have such low standards! if I'm paying $15-18 for a drink, I expect the bartender to know what a fucking French 75 is!
they’re literally classic cocktails and people in *cocktail bars* know what they’re are. i get that the most experimental you’ve ever gotten with alcohol is maybe a moscow mule, but actual cocktail bartenders know martini variations.

I'd also like to point out that southeast Manhattan, especially LES, East Village, and Bowery, has one of the highest regarded and most competitive cocktail scenes on the planet. it is beyond reasonable to expect the bartenders there to be at the top of their game.

SPEAKING OF CHARTREUSE (which is kinda what kicked off this thread), I have had an absolute bastard of a time finding any, just like everyone else, but just today I picked up a bottle of Fontbonne, a French herbal liqueur which purports to be of a somewhat similar make. we'll see

palate: syrupy sweet, chamomile for sure, anise, orange peel, bit of juniper. overall a lot more complex than I gave it credit for at first blush; I keep finding new aromas every time I take a smell or a sip. much too sweet to drink on its own though

finish: licorice root and angelica. sweet, lingering, pleasant. somewhat to my surprise, I think this might actually be an acceptable substitute until I can get my hands on some actual Chartreuse

obviously I'm not going to get upset if the bartender at a dive bar has never heard of a Clover Club, because their job isn't mixology, it's slinging beers and shots, often at volumes that would make building a 3 pour cocktail impractical

Thats a lot of cope about a country where this is a common enough thing for there to be a specific term for it. Nail house.
1. You can't own land in China 2. How many of those "homes" are in unfinished ghost towns? 3. A Chinese apartment the size of my closet is not really comparable to a house in France 4. The Chinese government tends to inflate their numbers

need to start doing this with Fallen London style names (e.g. The [Adjective] [Noun, typically occupation])

a friend of mine exclusively refers to his friends I haven't met yet with names like 'The Conspiracist' and 'The Ambassador'

what a coincidence that the guys who call a trans woman existing in public life a "groomer" but when it comes to the worlds most powerful and well-resourced pedophile sex trafficker, all of a sudden "grooming isnt real"

"grooming" isn't real, if those girls weren't found by Epstein they would have ended up hooking for weed money outside a truck stop and starting an OF on their 18th birthday

A Palestinian Christian executed the Munich operation, a Palestinian Christian shot netanyahu during a plane hijacking, a Palestinian Christian led a militant unit during the 2nd intifada, 2 Palestinian Christians formed 2 of the most influential armed group in the 20th century
Replying to @mikitaposts
Palestinian Christians are innocent and pure and must be protected at all costs

In 1970, as Earth Day launched, plastic producers faced an existential threat. With environmental awareness growing, bans on disposable plastics seemed inevitable. The solution? A masterclass in deception that shapes environmental policy to this day. Let's examine the proof
