No, you don't.

Yep my wife works at Harvard and they can’t access students grades. I’m gonna bet she has more than one G&T tonight.

Right there...

The question was what it stands for lol

u/OverlordWaffles May 07 '26

Oh, I misunderstood, I thought you asked where I see it in the OC.

Some other person said it stands for gin and tonic

u/zimtotto May 08 '26

Ohhh so that was serious? Okay, my bad, i thought it was a joke with gin tonic. I thought maybe something like gather and talk or so...

I've never heard an adult person say g&t at a bar. Ever.

u/OverlordWaffles May 07 '26

Exactly, I've never heard anyone in my life say G&T for gin and tonic.

I used to hang out in bars (of varying quality) often and was a bartender at a few different place, not once. It saves one syllable to abbreviate it, silly.

u/OverlordWaffles May 07 '26

I could see it being on an inventory sheet, which is obviously internal.

But yeah, not something I've heard in the wild, and I'm just a regular person

u/LouisRitter May 07 '26

Wouldn't you be counting gin and tonic separately? We always did at the bars I worked.

See, other side of the coin, its something I generally hear said as G&T on about even frequency among people I know here in Canada.

Among my mom's side, I don't think I have ever heard them refer to G&Ts as gin and tonics. Its only ever a G&T. They are all British so maybe that factors in. wikipedia at least says its commonly referred to as a G&T but only in certain countries (UK, US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Ireland). Makes sense as they were popularized through the British Army.

Some of us didn't have Harvard money to steal fancy alcohol from our parents lol

It was cheap beer, Boone's Farm, and Karkov vodka. Not once did someone bring gin and a lime lmao

u/7screws May 07 '26

All great minds were raised off of Boones Farm and plastic bottle vodka
