to me the mendoza line is an old fashioned. if i get some abomination that's mostly soda water and a ton of muddled fruit i order a beer next or something neat.
also i didnt realize it but apparently straight up and neat are different things. and straight up can sometimes mean neat, but up always means straight up.
The Mendoza Line separating a bad bar from a decent one is the ability to make an Aviation/Last Word. These are relatively uncommon requests, but not so obscure that a good bartender does not know them off the top of his or her head. If the bartender gives you a puzzled look, get up and leave and don't go back.
