Yes a bunch of whiners!! And not just the tiki loyal the other flair bartenders on here whining and making a mockery of what a bartender should be. See thats the smug kind of responses i expected in a forum like this. I am not an expert on tiki but have visited the sight on many occasions always trying to further my knowledge on everything bar and this was the first thread i felt compelled to register a profile for. I didnt come on here to disrespect, bash or ridicule anyone. I came on to say its a futile task arguing with each other till the end of time because no one will win. I want to be a part of these forums and learn everything i can but to say poly pop or tiki or mixology or flair or anything like that is the purest form of bartending is ignorant and misguided. And the insults are ridiculous im sure your all phenemonal guys and gals but to get in a pissing contest online is ridiculous. Talking about the money was only me explaining how flair is beneficial especially in paying the bills and a means to an end and compiling the most knowledge i can to be a succesfull bartender in any situation I am put in.If anyone read my post and then didnt instanly judge it based on the fact that i flair. it would be my obvious middle stance on the subject and in agreement with both sides. I will be posting in other forums here and trying to learn everything i can from this forum and hope i dont have to deal with any more short sidedness.I want to be down with the tiki culture but not ridiculed about another aspect of my life.Thanks for the advice guys.

P.S.KuKuAhu 5 bucks don't insult me. I have no time for people with short money. Keep the homosexual advances in ohio where they belong.
