Me: "Is there anything else you need help with?"
Guy: "Oh, shoot I forgot vermouth."
Me: "Follow me it's right over here."
Guy: "Cool, I need some for Manhattans."
Me: "Ok great, I love Manhattans. We have a few sweet vermouths to choose from."
Guy: "No I want some dry vermouth not red."
Me: "Well that's not a Manhattan."
Guy: "Yeah it is I just use dry vermouth & no bitters."
Me: "Uhh a Manhattan needs bitters. Don't let anyone tell you differently."
Guy: "Well I like my Manhattans with dry vermouth."
Me: "Then call it something else because it's not a Manhattan. Manhattans use red sweet vermouth. Call it a Brooklyn or a Staten Island or something."

No bitters? That's a Hoboken at best.
Hoboken is the home of Yo La Tengo so it has to be cool.
Perhaps we should call it a Jersey Shore
I think that it should be called a Trenton. Capitally awful.
Hate it when people do that! Kind of like when they order a Cobb salad but hold the bacon, blue cheese and egg. Not a Cobb jackass.
MG-nice. Quite funny.
Sam-Exactly.
