Caps Briefing: Getting the Message
Bartenders have an interesting job -- it's one of the few jobs where it's basically accepted to be grumpy sometimes (or all the time, at some bars). People have to wait for them, because they want their booze. They're frequently opinionated. Sometimes, they have a point.
Overheard of the Week
At Murphy's Grand Irish Pub in Old Town:
A waitress takes the order of a table.
Waitress to table: "What can I get for you guys?"
Table orders Harp, a water, Sam Adams, Bud Light.
Waitress to bartender: "Hey, I need a Harp, a Sam Adams and a Bud Light."
Bartender mutters to himself: "Bud Light? Who the fuck orders a Bud Light?!"
After the jump, kids, romance, and other stuff.

The endless car vs pedestrian struggle
Outside Booeymongers in Georgetown:
A driver on a cell phone fails to stop at the stop sign before turning, almost hitting a pedestrian. The pedestrian slaps the back seat window.
Driver: "I didn't even hit you! Don't assault my car...bitch!"
Onlooker: "I don't think you can assault a car."

On U Street, Sunday night:
A man in his 30s is talking, presumably to himself: "I'm just going to come out and say it. I'm a lesbian."

Teenage girl #2: "Do you think it just got in there, or is it food for something?"
