We've got artists, scientists, scholars, pranksters, publishers, songwriters, and political activists.  We've subjected Discordia to scrutiny, torn it apart, and put it back together. We've written songs about it, we've got a stack of essays, and, to refer back to your quote above, we criticize the hell out of each other.

also, if it actually said 'apothecary' it was probably some hippie hut, and all bets are off.


I think its a Eurospag reference to the Pharmacy.  :evil:

Yes, probably pharmacy then. I mistranslated, it was a Dutch article.

Ya.
Pharmacy is where we get the Real Drugs that make everything better. (consult with your doctor. may cause rectal bleeding)

Apothecary is where you go to get those deprecated herbal supplements and ineffective magic crystal deodorants.  Or else you're playing Ultima.

That's about as archaic as saying you're off to the tavern.

we have Taverns in our locale.
except at ours you get to eat their crappy food while watching a movie in some crappy theater.  the horrible nature of this idea hits you the one and only time you go there, as you realize that you can barely see the shitty food that you are eating.  it's disturbing....

In Washington State, a tavern is legally distinct from a bar, as a tavern only holds a beer & wine license whereas a full bar holds a liquor license as well.

I'm actually pretty glad the bill passed. Not just for my own health needs, but also because every single one of my Republican buddies just de-friended me on Facebook.  :lulz:

Too funny.

Well, back to stupid management fad class.  So far, in one morning, they have managed to use every management fad buzzword since 1989.
