What are all these _reptiles_ doing in here? [shudder] Someone call animal control please.

**lieu** , um, hon, don’t you mean “Fat Tire?” If that’s some of that good beer I can’t never find nowheres, may I have a bottle of it since the bartender seems disinclined to serve anyone here some _decent_ alcohol? Now, y’all watch what you’re doin’ with them darts. Aim them at _the pictures_, folks, not the patrons, _the pictures_.

**wring** , what’s this about some baked brie? They can’t serve me some single malt Scotch, but they got baked brie up in here? :mad: What kind of establishment is this anyway?

Damn, and that wasn’t even a typo. Sure celestina, you can have the rest of this one and I’ll get me a fresh one.

Anybody seen the Lysol? These stools smell like ass.

but it isn’t _good_ baked brie - they use that cheapo cheese, and burn the crust and everything. I think it’s that conservative bent they have.

Hey, fellows. There’s no need for this sort of violence. I’m sure if we sit down and discuss things intelligently, we can iron out all our differences without anyone getting hurt. Wouldn’t that be fantastic? Tell ya what, I’ve got a Boggle set out in the car. Why don’t I run out and get it, and we can all have a rousing, non-violent good time.

Uh… I can’t go get my Boggle set with you guys blocking the door… Hey! No need to grab me so hard! That kinda hurt… Um, what’s with the pliers, guys? What are you doing? Hey, those are my toes… Hey… HEY!

Um, bad idea, **Ale**. I think I saw Sheba heading in there. Come to think of it, if she drinks out of that john, I’ll never explain it to the boss!

Hey, I heard this place had Bud and St. Pauli Girl on tap!

So since I can’t stomach pisswater with corn syrup and salt, or the skunky swill the Germans wouldn’t drink themselves, I brought this here case of Lagunitas IPA. I’ll just set it here next to the pretzels…

I’ll have some of your liquor though, if you’ve got any decent bourbon. Since you’re a wealthy capitalist pig and all, I expect top shelf though. Knob Creek at worst.

Oh, mind if I log onto your computer? I just need to check my e-mail…Say is that a naked picture of Hilary Clinton on your wallpaper? Oh my!

Last time you ever accuse a rugby fan of being a soccer hooligan, god damn it. And your snacks are crap - don’t you get cheese and onion in this godless country?
