I'm paraphrasing, but I read a Reddit comment that stated this:

"I went to a bar, sat down, and ordered a drink, and was chatting with the bartender.

A dude sat down next to me, and the bartender immediately said "No, get the fuck out, right now."

The other dude said "What did I do?"

The bartender pulled out a sawed off baseball bat, and said again "Leave right fucking now, or I'll call the cops."

The other dude said "Fuck you!" and all the other stuff, but left.

After he left, I asked "What was that about?"

The bartender said "He was a Nazi. He had the tatts. When you let the first one in, they're polite and well behaved, scoping the place out. But then, if you don't get rid of them right then, they invite their friends, and the next thing you know your bar is Nazi Bar. And all the decent people will leave. Fuck that."

I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

And the dude next to me says, "hey i'm not doing anything, i'm a paying customer." and the bartender reaches under the counter for a bat or something and says, "out. now." and the dude leaves, kind of yelling. And he was dressed in a punk uniform, I noticed

Anyway, I asked what that was about and the bartender was like, "you didn't see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them."

And i was like, ohok and he continues.

"you have to nip it in the bud immediately. These guys come in and it's always a nice, polite one. And you serve them because you don't want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after awhile they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too.

And then THEY bring friends and the friends bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now. And it's too late because they're entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.

And i was like, 'oh damn.' and he said "yeah, you have to ignore their reasonable arguments because their end goal is to be terrible, awful people."

And then he went back to ignoring me. But I haven't forgotten that at all.

Makes anything sound badass. Like, hello Joseph, I'd like to introduce you to my sawed off wife.

Because it's easier to use in small spaces, and faster.
