Ridiculous name (can tell it's offensive without looking it up in a dictionary Loz!), nothing could induce me to go in there. It's like a return to the seventies or something.

DulwichFox Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Wait and see.. They will be packed out.. queuing down the lane to get in... No one has the gumption to boycott this place despite what they might write here.. .. and why should they. ? I must admit at first the name went over my head and I never saw the innuendo till mentioned here. I'm just a bit slow.. :) DulwichFox Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/66516-pussey-liquor-bar-new-to-the-lane/page/2/#findComment-874486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjam Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Maybe they're labouring under the impression that East Dulwich is an internationally renowned stag night destination, on a par with Magaluf or Ayia Napa?I don't mind a bit of smut either usually but this is just spectacularly misjudged. A shame, as I normally like trying new places and the pics look quite nice on Facebook, but I don't think I could bring myself to set foot in somewhere with a name so irredeemably naff.I do hope it's a wind up...

simonethebeaver Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 It doesn't take gumption to boycott it! It's just a restaurant. I wouldn't go there as I'd feel uncomfortable there.

Albert Fegg Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 There's a ski resort in Colorado called Beaver Creek. In Beaver Creek there's a 'bottle shop' called Beaver Liquors.Now that's good. Whereas Pussey Liquors is just sh:t.

MrBen Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 It's a gag. Hopefully they'll reveal their real name shortly having gotten some good controversial PR.....or...its a dying throes of hipster movement play ala Death Row Dinners and Cereal Killers Cafe....In the totally wrong family orientated location. Even in Peckham it would jar. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/66516-pussey-liquor-bar-new-to-the-lane/page/2/#findComment-874715 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggs Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Meat Liquor actually serves Meat and Liquor, so the name works. I doubt Pussey is on the menu at Pussey Liquor.Loz Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> indiepanda Wrote:> --------------------------------------------------> -----> > can tell it's offensive without looking it up in> a dictionary Loz!> > Agreed, but I was laughing at the poster being> offended at the strange definition they had to> look up on the net and yet missing the completely> obvious just-as-offensive one.> > blainiac Wrote:> --------------------------------------------------> -----> > Why not call it c**k sucker? > > For years there has been the popular and> critically acclaimed Meat Liquor in W1.

Ms Blueberry Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 This evening I saw Made in Chelsea's glamorous Victoria Baker Harber walking down the Lane. She looked like a nice young woman. And I certainly don't know, but I did wonder if she was going to PL's opening. I tend to agree with the sentiments given about the name - somehow it doesn't fit with my impression of ED being a considerate community. I certainly don't want to hear children asking what PL means. I don't think ED is prude, just a bit cleverer.

New Girl Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Now I'm no parent (I hate children in pubs, or should I say parents in pubs who feel it's their written right to tell adults how to behave pubs around their children, but that's a different thread) and no feminist but I think it's crass. I do have visions of a parent walking down the street with a child whose just learnt to read calling out every sign they see and say Pussy Liquor and a random bystander starts giggling. How do you go about explaining that one? The fact they know they're being 'risky' makes it all the worse as they know what they are doing by using their name to get everyone talking about them. Which I've done. So I'll stop. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/66516-pussey-liquor-bar-new-to-the-lane/page/2/#findComment-875366 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffers Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Referring back to Mrs Slocombe, and her pussy, this thread http://www.minki.net/aybsforum/showthread.php?t=4759 gives lots of examples of things I saw and heard as a child which have failed to scar me for life. It's a joke, however funny or not you find it.When I watch Are You Being Served now it's much funnier!
