Dress Standards at Canberra Bottle Shop

Do you have a beer gut?

All I can say is, Glenlivet makes terrible ice cream sauce, and having exhausted that possibility, no one could work out what to do with the stuff. It was inflicted on us by a Du Pont who evidently thought it was a Good Thing.

Nah it was Jackass… ‘Excuse you… excuse you!” from the checkout lady. Classic.

I remember a stunt they did on Jackass (or one of the many clone shows)

They found a store with a sign of
“No shirt
no shoes
No service”

So the performer wandered in, wearing just a shirt and shoes.

Ps. I prefer Cardhu

But they served me – maybe you and your other staff should be consistent at least. I wont be spending my money with you anymore anyway.

So you’re boycotting them for being inconsistent?

Less clothes on = less places to hide gun = almost an OH&S requirement in Braddon bottlo’s?

Forget Jameson WMC, for the good craic try Black Bush

Lagavulan ftw

If a topless woman came in I’m sure the bloke behind the counter wouldn’t have complained.

Somewhat unfairly, if a topless bloke walked into a shop with topless ladies behind the bar he’d probably be asked to leave.

Put a shirt on, you pig. Drinking single malt (ooh, we’re all terribly impressed) doesn’t make you any less of a filthy monga. Either you’re in less than top physical condition, in which case nobody wants to see it, or you’re in great shape, in which case nobody will ever love looking at you as much as you do.

Given that your vehemence is mildly out of character WMC I will assume you are a cheap scotch reeking fatty to whom the sight of non-fatties is abhorrent. grow up.

I like Jameson.

I do love my Islay single malts. Long gone are Vat 69 and Stones of my foolish youth.

Anyone who doesn’t bow down before Lagavulan is a fool and a charlatan.

I’ve bowed down after drinking it, does that count.

While its not a bad malt, nothing beats Laphrohaig.

Anyone who doesn’t bow down before Lagavulan is a fool and a charlatan.

But for something completely different try the Auchentoshan triple distilled lowland malt.

The code is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_malt_scotch

Laphroaig and Ardbeg? A man of some rare taste for a colonial! Add in a bottle of Bowmore and you have the makings of a quiet night in in front of the TV.

I’ve never heard of any of them. Is there some secret code I don’t know about?

Lagavulan for the win, beats the laphroaig hands down!

I’m sorry, but you’re wrong, very wrong, you couldn’t be more wronger.

I’m not suggesting anything. I’m just trying to make the point that if it was someone who justbands considered was not attractive, the reaction may be somewhat different 🙂

Are we suggesting that people with buckteeth need paper head bags now?

I am sure a bucktoothed person can go into a bottlo and buy booze.

a) I don’t catch buses….so that one’s easy
b) Actually, that’d be just fine. 😉

a) What, have you no environmental conscience! Gasp! (Jokes)

b) What if she was a smelly chick? What if she had buck teeth? What if she was a post-op trannie? What if she was not your idea of the ideal female specimen?

You get my point 😛

…if she was a post-op tranny then what’s the problem? 😉

Oh..I may not catch buses, but I do ride my bike.

& yep, I get your point. 🙂

Ahahah, you think I work for 1st Choice? Nah, I just read signs as I enter businesses.

Are you sure they didn’t deny you service because you’re a Ranga?

ha ha too bloody funny.

@Justbands – no problem with skin, I think it’s more of a hygiene issue. What would you do if the guy crammed on the bus next to you decided to take his shirt off? Or when you’re going down the supermarket aisle and have to squeeze past the sweaty chick in a bikini?

and hey, i have become a veteran! – will miss the halcyon days of raising rabble…

though i agree with ssr regarding lagavulan, can i come to the coast with you?? : )

Lagavulan for the win, beats the laphroaig hands down!

I’ve no idea why they are applying dress standards in a bottolo, only reason I can think of is that it’s part of a pub that requires dress standards…. But yeah, funny how they don’t care when you are looking at a nice bottle of scotch….

> Just to clarify – nothing personal, I just don’t think people should get around wearing next to no clothes. And before anyone gets into me for being hypocritical, I think the only appropriate place for a bikini is beside a pool or at the beach 🙂

Damn straight…imagine being able to see (shock! horror!) SKIN! I’m frightened just thinking about it.

Nude Ladies Live
No reason…I just felt like saying it.

realityksin – i think we finally have something in common.

@Gobbo – no worries with organised nudity 🙂

I just don’t think it’s fair to inflict it on the unprepared 😛

I bet you won’t be happy about the nude bike ride then. 🙂

I don’t blame them for not serving you, but it’s a bit rude to then change their mind when they worked out you wanted more than a six pack of VB.

Ardberg Uigeadail won World Whiskey of the year 2009 and best single malt !

What did they sting you for the Laphroaig ?

Are you sure they didn’t deny you service because you’re a Ranga?

My dear chap,

One knows that the Braddon bottle shops are not for the chattering classes. If one desires to purchase that low brow amber fluid so loved by the lower classes, one should head over to Kingston, Charnwood or perhaps Queanbeyan. Leave the Braddon boutiques free to do what they do best, wank on about hints of chocolate and aromas of cassis.
