 hose Hollywood anorexics have finally found a watering hole to call home. The 20’ ceilings enhance the extremely narrow space that could only fit three drunken individuals widthwise. After a long day at the 9-5 grind making just above minimum wage, you can drown your sorrows and drink your pathetic life away with pure budget beer – Pabst Blue Ribbon for $2 a can.
 That’s not a deal – it’s a steal! Lava lamps, Pac-Man paraphernalia and a pool table will remind you of your college days when you lived like a king on student loans (which have since brought you to your current depressing financial situation). High rollers can treat themselves to Happy Hour specials when bottles and domestic go down to $3 a beer.
When drinks are this cheap, it’s too easy for the barmen to be pretentious because they know you’re a cheap broke ass already so fortunately, they go easy on the razzing. Unfortunately, the ladies in the bar have higher standards.
