Mixing your drinks
Tuesday Nov 18, 2008
A bright career in local government awaits the wise individual who runs the bar at Cardiff University who decided that the bar staff were unable to serve a pint of water in case the glass was used to mix other drinks. The bar staff who were "just following orders", also did not appear to grasp the rational for the rule, were happily able to give me 2 half pints of water. I would have thought that
- The more water you get down the neck of the drinking student public the better.
- You can mix what you like with water, it won't make you more drunk. Hence the term "watering down".
- The nature and size of the original container becomes insignificant once the liquids are consumed.
- If individual students wish to spend the later part of the evening decorating the pavements of Cardiff, no amount of drink mixing rules enforced by the bar staff will stop them. A holistic approach requiring significant social engineering over an extended period of time would be needed. Such things are hard and take a lot of time.
What would Lemmy have thought?
