What's Wrong with this Picture?


While out for our birthday co-celebration this weekend, we saw this sign on the table...

Is it just me or isn't a PINT equal to 16 OUNCES?

Basically, they want to charge you $5 for 18 ounces of beer. Gee, but, uh, I think I'll pass on this steal of a deal!

I guess if you're drinking enough, you wouldn't realize the discrepancy.

What a ripoff! Even I'm not dumb enough to fall for that one.

Those aren't even half-pint pints.

Sheesh. New math. They should start talking about milliliters, that way everyone is confused and thinks they must be getting a helluva deal.

Actually, they don't need to put anything before the word pint, since it's a measure of liquid itself.

Such false advertising is an atrocity, they should represent their beer honestly :)

I guess like the word "is," the word "pint" is subject to interpretation. By this logic, can I say that I weigh 112 "pounds?"
