More importantly, a US pint is a bit smaller than a UK one, leading to a general feeling that you're getting subtly fleeced every time you go to the bar...
Well, if it's a bar in just about any city in the US, you *are* getting fleeced. I mean, 6 bucks for a fricking gin and tonic? $5.50 for micheloeb?
It's ridiculous. Why would I go out to a bar and buy a crappy mass-produced beer for what a 6 pack should cost? I mean, don't they know I gotta have some money to spend on gold diggers?
You know, on a related note, why *are* there so many bars in this country? We have a huge problem with drunk driving, you'd think we'd encourage people to just get drunk at home; that way they wouldn't be head-on ramming school busses anymore. It's not like most of us can walk to the corner pub like andy capp.
