Good luck reading that when you’re too drunk to stay
I feel like someone who’s been obnoxious enough to warrant receiving this is not likely to go quietly.
By the time I’d receive that, there’s no way I could read it.
There is no name on it so you could just hand it to someone else
For the comments saying this wouldn’t work, don’t be so sure. I was at a comedy club once and this drunk guy was was being loud and heckling for like 45 minutes and the comedians kept trying to engage with him but he was literally too drunk to understand their jokes about him so it wasn’t working so he was just ruining the show but no one wanted to say anything. I was sitting near him, and finally he happened to make eye contact with me and kinda raised his eye brows like “haha isn’t this great?” and I just very quietly and calmly said “hey man, you’re ruining the show for everybody and I think you need to leave.” He went, “oh,” stood up, and walked out. That was it. People sometimes don’t realize that they’re the party pooper, they think they’re the party, and it just takes a brief moment of clarity to shake them sober.
“hOLD UP… You Wanna Cut off My what? You WANNA CUT OFF MY WHAT?!!” A bar fight ensues.
The lack of literacy in writing ‘cutoff’ instead of ‘cut off’ would make me a very angry drunk.
if I was drunk enough to get this note, I’d be too drunk to read this note
Sipping too much tea
How do you settle your tab?
For some reason i think they would hand me this at the door when i enter their establishment.
Gotta collect them all. Probably a badge of honor for quite a few
Anyone who can read this and then do what it says is not drunk enough to justify being cut off
I got cut off in a hotel bar in south dakota once, after only 3 pints. I was visiting for a conference from the UK, and that evening I was sitting at a table in the corner, quietly reading a book, not talking to anyone, genitalia firmly inside my clothing.
After I got my third pint, a hotel security guy came over and politely told me that this was my last drink of the evening.
I was pretty much done anyway, but it made me think that these yanks must not be big drinkers, if they think 3 pints is enough to set someone off
Does getting cut off mean you have to leave the place? I always thought it just meant, “No more drinks for you, but you’re fine to hang out.”
I collect these.
If I’ve reached the point of being cut off, there’s no chance I’m sober enough to make sense of this.
The drunk guy thinking the bartender just hit on him with this card:
“Show time”
Why the tavern branding at all? Haha
I would put my name on it and drop it in the free meal jar
They don’t have to pay? Interesting
Cutoff is a fun new word.
Very demure
“You have been cutoff. Please leave quietly and get behind the wheel of your vehicle, go to the liquor store, grab a few road beers, then continue driving home. No need to make a scene by calling for a ride”
There were cutoffs up here?
I’d kinda rather just be told tbh
Give me one of those and I’ll eat it.
POV: you just did a pants-off Irish jig on the bar table while throwing beads you brought from home and screaming at women to take their tops off
Sad thing is that this will trigger a lot of people and start even more fights
“cutoff”
Not tipping if I get this
if only that human is still capeable to read this, lol.
But sort of clever idea, lol)
Quality one prank👍
Hey, I’ve been to this bar!
I wasn’t drunk in public, they threw me into public! I was drunk at the bar!
The drunk guy just walking out quietly is like a 2% chance 😂
Manners maketh man
Me: *Reads it out loud for everyone to hear because I’m drunk*
