This collar ain't popped, and the shirt definitely ain't pink.

Lighten up douchebag, this crap's funny.

I'm not opposed to the sarcastic barbs at public figures, but if we could treat one another here with a degree of respect, I'd appreciate it. Cheers, thanks a lot.

goatee comment = mucho funny

Cotuit - I think I live in the bizzaro version of your world as I have always had the exact inverse of your experience at as220/TP. The TP staff always being super down to earth and friendly and the AS220 folks being way too cool for school. I think AS220 by and large has been a great asset for the city, but I've often gotten a holier than thou vibe rather than any interest in working with the community at large. I also think that Bert Crenca has obviously accomplished a lot over the years, but I have never had a single positive interaction with him. Total pompous ass. He certainly knows how to get things accomplished though.

You have gotten snooty attituder from the English bartender girl? she's pretty awesome.

I will agree however that sitting at the bar can be a bit unfriendly in terms of the patron reactions. Like we are too alternative for you, you don't belong here. the AS220 staff has been fine though.

I was speaking of AS220 staff in general - I dont think Ive dealt with English Bartended girl (i dont drink..)

[frymasterspeck]

At first, everybody in the joint treated me like crap cuz I'm an old loser that nobody knew. Now they treat me like the heppinest hepster that ever hepped a hep.

Why? I tip ridiculously well. Try it, it works!

I've never gotten attitude from anyone at either place, but the AS220 bartenders have always been super friendly while the TP people were pretty short/curt with me. I've had a similar feeling to Brick's with the patrons looking at me like I don't belong because I don't wear tight jeans and have no tatoos or piercings, and my hair is always relatively neat.
