Best Bathroom to Leave Embarrassing Drunken Messages
Dionysus
8 E. Preston St., (410) 244-1020
There are many reasons to love Dionysus--good pizza, relaxed atmosphere, nice bartenders, all the usuals. But the best is the wall-sized blackboards in the potties. Just be careful. See, after six or eight scotches, suddenly it doesn't seem so crazy to leave, say, a love note to a someone you've had a crush on for months and months in six-foot-high purple letters. Using both of your full names. In a bar that both of you and many of your acquaintances frequent. On a Friday night. Suddenly around 2 a.m. you wake up in a cold sweat thinking a friend or co-worker is going to roll in there tomorrow and all of Smalltimore is gonna be up on your big secret. When did going to a bar turn into junior high? (Not that we've, uh, done this or anything.) Thankfully, unlike your standard for a good time call magic-marker bathroom graffiti, these ill-advised admissions wash easily away, so if you really need to tell that special someone, shitty boss, or random stranger how you feel, this might still be your best bet. Colored chalk and alcohol are a dangerous mix, people.
