I don't think I've been a member of Era long enough to understand wtf is going on ITT.
It's simple, do you respect people or do you watch TV in bars?

I reject false dichotomies.It's simple, do you respect people or do you watch TV in bars?
You doing okay, mate?Just admit you have no respect for other people and possibly yourself.
lol i remember we kept stealing furniture from our university bar. It became a game of who could steal the biggest thing. Lots of stools, we managed a table once.
Yeah OP not every pub needs a tv. Luckily many Dublin pubs are sprawling and have nooks and crannies.
One restaurant I work at has no TV's at all, and my main gig has 1 tv inherited from the previous brunch place before it. We just play shows from Netflix on there!
It depends.
I remember one of the bars in Alhambra playing random anime on the screen. It wasn't bad.
Drinks were pricey, but that's every bar in LA.
Is your main gig at a bar for children, idiots or idiot children?
Just got back from the bar with some pals. They wouldn't turn off the TV for some reason so when the bar tender wasn't looking I swiped the HDMI cable. I'm planning on returning it along with a handwritten letter in the morning.
This must be a troll. No one is this passive aggressive. Also, how did no one immediately notice that the TV suddenly didn't work and saw you near the area?
If that bar has cameras then stealing their cable wasn't very smart either
You mean the stealing part. Yup, they got it.
OP is either trolling or about two bad days away from a psychotic break.
It's a lame way of ensuring patrons spend more time in the bar. TVs cause distraction, meaning conversations last longer since people require more time to form thoughts, and sometimes need to ask their interlocutors to repeat sentences.
Returning it with a letter? If you thought that what you did was right, then you should return it in person and tell them your story.
I agree with you OP.... just maybe... not quite to the extent of swiping a cable.
However I will fully admit to fucking with bar TVs using the IR blaster on my Newton back in the 90s so maybe I am already there.
I just wouldn't patronize a place like that anymore. I don't watch the sportsball so the places I hang out at are either TV-less or have like a single display showing freaky photoshops of historical photos or something non-motion-distracting.
You'd be goddamned surprised. When I was booking gigs I'd have assholes fuck with the speakers if they didn't like the band that was playing. People are entitled pricks.
Or, judging by the avatar, just a Masshole.OP is either trolling or about two bad days away from a psychotic break.
You should have a note and your name and address on it for they can ban you for stealing from them because it seems like you don't have any respect for people.It's simple, do you respect people or do you watch TV in bars?

Modern Day Entitlement, you sound like a class act OP.Just got back from the bar with some pals. They wouldn't turn off the TV for some reason so when the bar tender wasn't looking I swiped the HDMI cable. I'm planning on returning it along with a handwritten letter in the morning.
OP if you aren't full of shit and trolling, which is highly likely considering how straight you've played this thread the whole time, you went from annoying to a downright asshole with that HDMI cable shit. If you did that at the bar I worked at I woulda put your face through a window.
Your dumb ass righteousness about how other people should enjoy their time at a a bar doesn't give you a pass to take other people's property.
So the mods have just let you have a thread where you use your supposed dislike of TVs in bars to be an asshole to other posters?Put my face through a window? Yeah ok pal, maybe if you weren't wasting your life infront of the idiot box watching sportsball.
Come find me when you get a brain.
