actually most upper class bars have a set up to an online drinks database where all they have to do is type on ingredients or a name and you get an encyclopedic listing of the drink like variations regional names ect ….. costs about 400 a year
I’ve been looking for awhile for something online that’ll let you put in ingredients and suggest random drinks you can make.
Webtender did, but it was so full of weird random user entered things it wasn’t very useful.
“ALSO, HE IS IMPRESSIVELY DRESSED. ESPECIALLY THAT INTRICATELY KNOTTED PIECE OF CLOTH AROUND HIS THROAT. IT MAKES HIM APPEAR DISTINGUISHED AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. CLEARLY, HE IS BETTER SUITED FOR THIS JOB THAN YOU.”
Usually when a sign like “Free Beer Tomorrow” is posted it’s because the person posting the sign has a sense of humor. That is *not* something I would normally ascribe to Galasso.
We don’t know he put up that sign; it might have been the bartender’s idea (she needs a tag, especially if we’re going to get more of Becky working at Galasso’s in the future, which I really hope we are, and not just because that means more Sayid).
I get to rerun a filk I did back in the later “It’s Walky!” days… Don’t turn around–Oh no!
Tie Kommissar’s in town–Oh NO!
You’re in his eye, and you’ll know why
You’ll work for him and have to wear a TIE…
Last I checked, Edward and Wallis were the only Nazis and Phillip was the only near-Nazi (emphasis on “near”). George, Elizabeth and especially Phillip all hated the Nazis, especially because Edward (and especially especially Wallis) didn’t. Also last I checked, three does not make many. Is there anyone I missed? I admit I’m not a historian.
No. The Duke and Duchess of Windsor were Nazi supporters and may even have expected to rule the UK as their own quasi-fascist kingdom-cum-dictatorship. But in a typically confusing piece of terminology the Duke of Windsor was not even the head of the House of Windsor. In fact, there was a House of Windsor for twenty years before there was a duke of Windsor, and there has continued to be a House of Windsor for forty years after there was no longer a duke of Windsor.
It’s an easy mistake to make, because the terminology is not what you’d expect. The guy whom the tie-knot is named after was a fascist, and the only difference between him and a Nazi was that he thought he ought to be in charge, not Hitler. But George V (head of the House of Windsor until 1936) held Nazism in contempt, while George VI (head of the House of Windsor from late 1936 and through the War) despised and fear it so much that he took secret unconstitutional action to support Winston Churchill and to prevent Britain from negotiating a settlement in 1940. And then there were all the other male-line descendants of Queen Victoria — they were mostly tories I suppose, but those who were of military age fought dutifully for Britain in WWII.
Well, there was Charles Edward, some-time Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. He was technically made a member of the House of Windsor when it was created in 1917, but he was a German general at the time, and was stripped of his British peerages and princely status in 1919. He was a member of the Nazi Party and I think wore his Nazi Party uniform to [his cousin] George V’s state funeral. And his sons fought in the Wermacht in WWII. But I have to raise a quibble about whether they were actually members of the House of Windsor. At the time when Edward VII changed his family’s name from “House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha” to “House of Windsor” Charles Edward was not his subject — he was a reigning duke of the German Empire and also a German general: fighting against Edward VII and not subject to his jurisdiction. Charles Edward and his descendants continued and continue to call themselves the House of Saxe-Coburg, not the House of Windsor.
Nah, just saw a few dozen tweets accusing folks of getting up in arms over “ethnic” food, like anyone was telling them they couldn’t eat anything from outside their region. I guess it got to me a bit.
As someone whose pre-American ancestry is almost as pure Anglo-Gaelic as Jason’s (with the skin color albedo to prove it), I suppose that means I’m not allowed to eat anything that isn’t boiled.
white people can eat ethnic food no problem as long as they don’t start claiming they “discovered” it or appreciate it better than the people that made it. In short, as long as you don’t pretend you know more about egg rolls than a Chinese person there’s no issue
Most ‘ethnic’ food is a prefix-American mash anyway. In The Fortune Cookie Chronicles, Lee reveals that the mainland basically has no idea what half of the food we put on Menu is, with a lot of it just being made here in the late 1800s/early 1900s.
So it’s like…it’s not stereotypically white. But it’s not ethnic, it just has that veneer, you know? Not that anyone would really stop eating food just because it came from somewhere else? I would hate it if people were denied the beauty of Shepherds Pie, Schnitzel, Fish N Chips, or an English Roast….
I find it pretty absurd that the Chinese dress is getting more press than the public school in Gilead, Alabama that paddled 18 girls for showing up to prom with a too low neckline or too high skirts, and literally told them, “This is for your own good. If any of the boys had seen you, you would be feeling a lot worse right now.”
“A drunken prank or con game, I’m not sure which. Anyway, it turns out that, after a while, people just accepted that I was there and no-one was inclined to challenge me anymore!”
We have so many characters already, I think the only way not to reach over compacity is if we gave the new characters small subplots and then quickly have it resolved so we can move back to the main cast.
So there’s still only two people tagged in this comic. Does that mean that everyone else who appeared in today’s and yesterday’s comics are actually shared hallucinations of Jason and Walky?
J: “If you were a girl you’d be very pretty”
W: “Uh…you must be thinking of a twin sister I definitely have”
J: “Yeah, makes sense, an affair with someone like that would explain why I got fired despite being a great TA”
Walky eats too many Chicken McNuggets one night, passes out.
He wakes up six months later. He is wearing a bowtie, and apparently is married to Dorothy. And is President of the US. And has fixed the economy, balanced the budget, saved the environment, and achieved world peace.
It’s still on the short side as recent arcs go. Based on my calculations, there have been 2505 DOA strips, so if this storyline ended right now, it would be ~14½ strips longer than the average storyline, which would still make tied for the second-shortest storyline since Book 4 (Up All Night to Get Vengeance, which I’m pretty sure is the one where Amazi-Girl brawls with Sal & crew).
I just remembered. Tips! Bartenders in America depend on tips, so Galasso appointing an auxiliary bartender would take income right out of Barbara’s budget.
Loading ...
now, about that pesky “learning how to mix drinks” part
What are you talking about, of course Jason can mix drinks, just look at that bowtie!
“I thought I knew what was in my drink order, but this guy has a bowtie so he must be right.”
“I’m wearing a bowtie. Bowties are cool now, ergo I know what’s in your drink order.” 😀
He’s British.
…. I’m not saying that ALL Brits know how to mix drinks, but I suggest never underestimating an Englishman’s proficiency with alcohol.
Yelp review: “That blond bartender only serves two drinks: tea, and tea-quila. ☆☆☆☆★”
5 stars for the bowtie, though.
“BOWTIE.”
“Are you sure these are margaritas?”
“I’m sure I’m wearing a bowtie.”
“…alright then.”
actually most upper class bars have a set up to an online drinks database where all they have to do is type on ingredients or a name and you get an encyclopedic listing of the drink like variations regional names ect ….. costs about 400 a year
And for everybody else, there’s Webtender, Cocktaildb, cocktailbuilder.com, etc.
I’ve been looking for awhile for something online that’ll let you put in ingredients and suggest random drinks you can make.
Webtender did, but it was so full of weird random user entered things it wasn’t very useful.
Who’s that blond guy in the last panel?
The bartender. See the bowtie?
Seriously looks like a different person when you can see white in his eyes.
🙂
“Boss, I wish you had told me before hiring that bowtie dweeb as bartender.”
“GALASSO DOES NOT HAVE TO EXPLAIN HIMSELF TO ANYONE.”
And thus Jason was hired.
hey now, don’t spoil tomorrow’s strip
Galasso? Predictable? Naaaaah
GALASSO SHOULD NOT HAVE TO CHANGE HIS ACTIONS SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY ARE ‘PREDICTABLE.’
I’m more surprised to learn that Galasso has an HR Dept!
Oops. Bartender said “Payroll” not “HR”. I reed gud.
It’s probably Pamela doing all the paperwork to keep the business running, and Galasso just runs the restaurant.
I literally think this is what’s going on.
“YOU ABANDONED YOUR POST AND THE BOWTIED ONE SEIZED IT. GALASSO APPRECIATES HIS DARING AND TACTICAL PROWESS.”
“ALSO, HE IS IMPRESSIVELY DRESSED. ESPECIALLY THAT INTRICATELY KNOTTED PIECE OF CLOTH AROUND HIS THROAT. IT MAKES HIM APPEAR DISTINGUISHED AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. CLEARLY, HE IS BETTER SUITED FOR THIS JOB THAN YOU.”
Bartenders would rather be busy than split tips.
Walky, you’re not nearly British enough to wear a bowtie well.
I’m pretty sure Walky couldn’t put a bow tie on. No one tell him about clip-ons.
This is Walky.
He’d go for a Velcro bow tie instead.
Velcro [tm] aka Felcron – that is so last century – Rare Earth Magnets is where it’s at.
True enough, but Walky likes what Walky likes.
Walky’s definitely had a lot of practice with BSing.
he could get a BS in BS
If he’d just apply himself, I’m confident Walky could earn a PhD in BS.
Piled Higher and Deeper? (Punchline for an old joke.)
“FREE BEER TOMORROW”
jam tomorrow and jam yesterday, but never ever jam today
Jam On It! (Yeah yeah, we know, we know) HUH!?
My health teacher in hs had the same sign but for candy. Most people only fell for it once. Most people.
Usually when a sign like “Free Beer Tomorrow” is posted it’s because the person posting the sign has a sense of humor. That is *not* something I would normally ascribe to Galasso.
We don’t know he put up that sign; it might have been the bartender’s idea (she needs a tag, especially if we’re going to get more of Becky working at Galasso’s in the future, which I really hope we are, and not just because that means more Sayid).
See, lying is a good thing.
He is not lying, its marketing, spin, fake news …… errr …. Stating alternate reality facts …… uhmmmm…… Future facts ….. yeah, that’s it…. Future facts.
ooooh, red’s free beer tomorrow, my favorite
Alert! This is not a drill! We have a confirmed eye-whitey-bit on Jason Chesterfield!
…since we can see the whites of his eyes (or one of them at least), does that confirm that he’s fired?
I get to rerun a filk I did back in the later “It’s Walky!” days…
Don’t turn around–Oh no!
Tie Kommissar’s in town–Oh NO!
You’re in his eye, and you’ll know why
You’ll work for him and have to wear a TIE…
If Walky had a bow tie, he’d refuse to wear it on the basis of firmly-held conviction.
It’swalky version of walky was like that, we talking about that one ?
Leave his neck alone, you Windsor Nazis!
http://www.itswalky.com/comic/ties/
On a related note, many in the House of Windsor were Nazis or near-Nazis.
Last I checked, Edward and Wallis were the only Nazis and Phillip was the only near-Nazi (emphasis on “near”). George, Elizabeth and especially Phillip all hated the Nazis, especially because Edward (and especially especially Wallis) didn’t. Also last I checked, three does not make many.

Walky is more clever than he thinks he is.
So in the Willis Multiverse, I presume bowties are the ultimate super weapon.
No, that’d be a tree branch.
No, that’d be a Dina.
Nah, just a cast-iron proof of being a professional in whatever job you need to con your way into!
Wow walky is good at this con stuff.
BUT WHAT’S HER NAME, WILLIS?
Other Bartender, duh.
Sandy Macdonald? Anabella Hendricks? Heather Mackinlay?
I’m just throwing random brands of liquor together, here.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
WHAT’S YOUR NAME, BILLIS?
Barbara Tender
Walky’s bowtie is kept in the same place his spare shoes are
The hallway floor?
Danny’s room
Remember, Walky’s smart, he’s just lazy.
A smart, lazy person will find the most efficient solution to a problem.
Of course, that means confronting the problem in the first place, and we all know how good he is at that!
As a serial avoider, most of the time, if you focus extra hard on easy problems, other people will deal with your stuff on their own.
And thus pretty much everyone important eventually ended up working at Galasso’s
Just as Galasso himself planned it. All hail Galasso!
Everybody Comes To Galasso’s
Bowties, the all access backstage passes to every bar ever
I’m more intrigued by the bartender. Wonder if she’s the second child Galasso would’ve had if Pam hadn’t died.
Pamela’s alive in the Dumbiverse.
That’s how they can have a second child here.
I doubt it; she’s obviously a lot older than Connie.
Guys is it okay to eat non stereotypical white food or am I literally colonising China and forcing everyone to eat only cornbread if I want a egg roll
Sorry Twitter is wild today
Is this about the prom cheongsam?
Nah, just saw a few dozen tweets accusing folks of getting up in arms over “ethnic” food, like anyone was telling them they couldn’t eat anything from outside their region. I guess it got to me a bit.
As someone whose pre-American ancestry is almost as pure Anglo-Gaelic as Jason’s (with the skin

In short, as long as you don’t pretend you know more about egg rolls than a Chinese person there’s no issue
They can have my chopsticks when they pry them from my cold, dead hands.
indeed. 🙂 heck, I was in china long enough I was actually clumsy with a fork when I first came back.
Most ‘ethnic’ food is a prefix-American mash anyway. In The Fortune Cookie Chronicles, Lee reveals that the mainland basically has no idea what half of the food we put on Menu is, with a lot of it just being made here in the late 1800s/early 1900s.

If any of the boys had seen you, you would be feeling a lot worse right now.”
town name is on the nose. :p
Reminds me of that crappy handmaid book I read, years back.
“So, how did you get your job?”
“A drunken prank or con game, I’m not sure which. Anyway, it turns out that, after a while, people just accepted that I was there and no-one was inclined to challenge me anymore!”
“Now if only they’d actually put my real name on my checks instead of just ‘Bowtie'”.
…come to think of it, has anyone not family gotten a job at Galasso’s the normal way?
Are you saying that Pamela and Connie had to go though a rigorous interview process before being hired?
Hardly, but it’s common enough to use family members in a family business that I classified that as “normal” as well.
she is very cute
We have so many characters already, I think the only way not to reach over compacity is if we gave the new characters small subplots and then quickly have it resolved so we can move back to the main cast.
Fear the soggies may rule?
those bastards will NEVER RULE
Watch how Jason doesn’t say anything he just sits back and let’s walky do his magic and things keep running smoothly.
When you’re obviously in a drunken fever-dream, there’s nothing to do but sit back and enjoy it.
Then comes the hangover… Oh boy, the hangover, which may or may not involve a criminal complaint from Galasso.
Galasso does not do “Criminal complaints”
If the bowtied one ousts the freckled one and will serve Galasso well, then that is the way it is.
So there’s still only two people tagged in this comic. Does that mean that everyone else who appeared in today’s and yesterday’s comics are actually shared hallucinations of Jason and Walky?
Plot twist: every character in DoA has been a shared hallucination of Jason and Walky.
ESPECIALLY Sal
J: “If you were a girl you’d be very pretty”
W: “Uh…you must be thinking of a twin sister I definitely have”
J: “Yeah, makes sense, an affair with someone like that would explain why I got fired despite being a great TA”
Rolling Nat 20 on Persuasion there, Walky!
Jason got eyes !
Is there a Payroll at Galasso’s?
Or did she just mean Conquest?
I don’t know and that is terrifying me.
So, who here assumes her name is Barbara Tender?
Walky eats too many Chicken McNuggets one night, passes out.
He wakes up six months later. He is wearing a bowtie, and apparently is married to Dorothy. And is President of the US. And has fixed the economy, balanced the budget, saved the environment, and achieved world peace.
He remembers none of this.
So… dumbiverse Robin is Walky now huh?
I want to see Walky trying to dress and act like Jason for a while. Doing it all wrong, of course, but giving it a good try.
Prediction: Whoever runs Payroll also wears a bow tie.
If they’re capable, sure.
Is anyone else over this arc?
oh, me, definitely
Well yeah, but that’s because you’re months in the future.

nope 🙂 I am quite enjoying this.
(otoh, I am still a bit grumpy about the Ore filler episode. wtf.)
Still no name tag for our bartender? Hmmm.. I’m going to call her… Callie
says Barb now
I’d suggest Marguerite but that might be too on the nose
I just remembered. Tips! Bartenders in America depend on tips, so Galasso appointing an auxiliary bartender would take income right out of Barbara’s budget.
the international student advisor in me is having a heart attack because this is what gets you sent back to England, Jason
Dangit, the Kickstarter dies while I was trying to “Continue” and pay 🙁
Where will I send my money now?
