Nice, isn’t it? When I was a big drinker, I’d hit my hole-in-the-wall and get a double whiskey and a coke back, no questions asked.
Best part? On on busy Friday or Saturday when there was a monster line at the bar, I could grab a spot, STFU, get my drink.

“Because he’s not being an ass.”
And, back to the back of the line for the questioner.
Two old ladies running the place. Never knew their names. But god help you if there was a fight starting. Flirting with a girl one night and some guys got to pushing around…
“ALL RIGHT! GET THE FUCK OUT! BAR’S CLOSED!”
She looked at me kinda nervous:
“Really?”
“Yeah, really. They mean it. We gotta go.”
(We didn’t go anywhere, but we split in any case.)
