A man at Dan’s table did a thing. 
Dan then did a thing.
The man got very annoyed. Why?

Does this actually happen in a wine bar?

by **android180** » Tue Jan 17, 2023 11:06 am

Did both the man and Dan do the same thing?

by **doriana_** » Tue Jan 17, 2023 12:53 pm

Did the man think that Dan was making fun of him?

Are Dan and the man both patrons of the bar? Did they know each other before entering?

Was Dan actually trying to make fun of him?

sorry, my mistake
Was the man already sitting at the table when Dan entered the bar?

Did the man's action involve wine? a wine glass? a wine bottle? drinking? spilling a drink? speaking? ordering?

I'm not sure how the question is in conflict with OAATP rules as it's allowed to ask about multiple variables

Sorry Doriana, got carried away there

Fixed.

No problem!

Did Dan's action involve wine? a wine glass? a wine bottle? drinking? spilling a drink? speaking? ordering? interacting with the man?

Interacting with someone else?

You missed android180's q about whether Dan was actually making fun.

My q: did Dan performance action similar to the man?

by **Sarisberie2** » Wed Feb 01, 2023 8:24 pm

Sorry, I missed this!

WAG: does the man inspect, smell and/or taste his wine in a very deliberate way, and Dan does the same to some water, soda, or an empty glass?

Did Dan swirl the beer in the glass and then sniff it? take a small sip and then make comments in very "flowery" language about how it tasted?

CORRECTION (Sorry Galfisk)

I didn't realise "Dan The Man" was a cartoon character! DTM is not included in this puzzle, just some bloke called Dan.

by **BitterLemonCurry** » Fri Feb 17, 2023 9:05 am

Oh, have I really missed a wine-tasting puzzle?

Is Dan using a spittoon?

******************************************$POILER**********************************************
The sommelier came to the table with a bottle of wine. The man made a big show of tasting his wine, swirling it, sticking his nose inside the glass, and swooshing it around his mouth. Dan then lifted his pint of beer to his ear, and listened to it very intently for a moment… The man was really cross because he couldn't take the joke.

WELL DONE to GALFISK for the solve, and to Sundowner64, android180, Doriana_, JenBurdoo1, Biograd1, BitterLemonCurry, and BalinTheDwarf.

by **JenBurdoo1** » Fri Feb 24, 2023 3:22 am

Oh, I like this one. Yeah, we all consider the smell, taste, texture and appearance of our food, but who ever thinks of listening to it?

by **Biograd1** » Fri Feb 24, 2023 6:16 am

Haha! I didn't think that he mocked the wine tasting by doing something that one would NOT do with wine--just about the only sense you wouldn't think to use for that,
