Remark passed about drinking Cranberry Juice

    I once saw this on TV. A guy ordered a cranberry juice at a bar with his female colleague. She said to him:

    "If you were seen drinking that in my neighbourhood you'd get the sh1t kicked out of you."

    Out of curiosity, what would be the perfect reply for him to say in order to hold his frame? Something short and snappy that would show up the stupidity of her remark. Her comment was essentially telling him to conform to peer pressure. All I could think of for him was something like "that's why only guys as confindent as me can drink it"

    Very useful for those nights you are out and not drinking alcohol

    Yes. However there's the odd chance that the person would respond by saying "Jeez, just asking"... as if they weren't working their way up to a snide remark!

    No, the TV series was 'Lie to Me', and it was said by Monica Raymund's character.

    By who? By you?
    I guess everyone in your neighbourhood drinks out of a paper bag.
    Who knows what they are drinking? They could be drinking cranberry juice.

    Leo's actor was quite clever in that scene. It shows him listening in on their conversation. I think he ordered a cranberry juice deliberately so that he could get the guy to make that comment, and then impress them by attacking your man.

    I would normally have blackcurrant but these days it's a bit controversial.

    This isn't even about a real incident, it was on a TV programme. It's not the OP's neighbourhood in question!

    "Go fcuk yourself" would be the most appropriate and politest response to such a statement.

    Tell her thanks to the cranberry juice you won't need the shít kicked out of you as it's great for regular movements.

    Shake it up on ice with vodka, Cointreau and a squeeze of lime juice, serve it straight up and call it a Cosmopolitan.

    Only way to drink Cranberry juice IMHO :)
