RALEIGH, NC—Offering a sympathetic ear and a free shot of his favorite whiskey, local bartender Dan Burke reportedly told local man Patrick O’Malley Thursday that he’d give him a free drink if he told him what was wrong.
“Hey, if you want to talk about it, I’ll hook you up with something on the house,” said O’Malley’s new best friend Burke, who added that he knew from experience that the best way to get over a bad day was to drown your sorrows in a few stiff drinks.
“You know what? I think I can even stretch it to two drinks. I know how it is, buddy—I used to be the same way. But trust me: Once you get that first drink down, you won’t even remember why you were so upset in the first place. And then maybe another one after that? Before you know it, you forget all about your problems and just have a good time. Hell yeah! Let me get you another one of those right now. You deserve it!”
At press time, O’Malley was telling Burke about how his girlfriend had just dumped him and how he didn’t think he could go on without her.
