Shot this at a nearby sushi restaurant. Apparently "Extreme Current of Water Outpour Splash Results Strongly Below" was taken.

Linguistic Police: Hawaiian Tropic Zone Code 1 Violation
I was walking up Las Vegas Blvd and this guy standing outside Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino handed me a coupon that said this:
“FREE DRINK at HAWAIIAN TROPIC ZONE: Buy 1 Drink and Receive the Same Drink For Free”
I understand what Hawaiian Tropic was trying to say. They were trying to say that I’d get a SECOND drink for free, identical to the first, if I purchased drink #1 at full price. But that’s not what the coupon says. The coupon says I’ll get “the Same Drink” for free. The coupon imples that Hawaiian Tropic Zone will return my money after I slide it across the bar and take my first sip--does it not?
Back when I was in law school, I probably would have walked into Hawaiian Tropic Zone and demanded a free drink. Now I just blog about it. How sad is that?

Counselor Laurich calls me "Laxy" too. Odd. I mean, they are asking for it, aren't they?
May I focus your attention

May I focus your attention to Counselor Lax's tag for this post: "grammar nazi." Is that a common expression that I'm unaware of? Or is that what you consider yourself? Either way, funny stuff.
Hi Counselor Newbie, I'm

Hi Counselor Newbie,
I'm pretty sure Grammar Nazi is a common expression.
But yes, aside from taht, I do try to bring up the Holocaust as often as possible.
I wonder what "PAY" means?
I wonder what "PAY" means? Is it code for something that would happen to you in Pulp Fiction?
