I doubt this joke works outside Nth America.

Everywhere I have been in the UK, EU, Aus etc all use standard measures when pouring spirits.

Yes, I had to look up what pouring fingers means.

First time I was fingered was in Poland.

A normal shot is three fingers...

[-] FfaerieOxide@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago

So you do know what a finger is.

I spent 3 months on holiday doing a road trip in the USA, the majority of the world has not.

That is why I knew the joke only works there...

That's amazing though. How did you manage to patronize every single drinking establishment outside the united states to be able to claim definitively that there is no where else in the world the joke would play?

...

What, planning to edit that later? Are you quoting Hold On Now Youngster? Ellipses don't add anything to this conversation you have no more reason to reply to than you do to claim you know every drinker outside north america as a way to shit on my joke.

Is no one else talking to you?

You seem very invested in all this.
