Tim continues his drinking-life reminiscence with his boss's 'olives are for women' rule, then tells a story of getting thrown out of a bar for drunkenly yelling about supporting troops in Iraq, and reflects on how sobriety changed his politics.
- Tim's former boss told him olives are for women.
- Martinis are for people who need to get fucked up by the appetizer.
- It's classy to throw your life away drinking martinis, whiskey, and bourbon — not beer.
- Tim quit all other drugs and graduated to booze, spending Sundays getting drunk in his car.
- Tim was kicked out of Churchill's twice, once for drunk ranting at 11 a.m. about supporting the Iraq War and sending more troops.
- He believed in the Bush administration at the time, then stopped drinking and doing cocaine and gained perspective.
- While coked up on Long Island, Tim would drive wealthy neighborhoods with friends, screaming that rich people deserved their money more than anyone.
