Didn't the man at some point make a post on an Internet forum whining
about the bartender's inability to read his mind??

Yes, I did. Are you going to tell me I got what I asked for? I
understand that, now. But, I maintain that, well, treating that remark
just like "/G" by ATC is perhaps not the most logical way to treat it.
A man walks into a bar and says, "I'd like a glass of fruit juice, please".
The bartender smiles and starts to pour him a glass of juice.
Then the man says, "My wife doesn't like it when I drink whisky, but whisky
is what I really like, and, hey look, I even brought my own shotglass with
me (but my wife doesn't know, wink-wink, nudge-nudge)". The bartender
smiles, puts the juice away, and pours the man a shot of whisky.
Then the man says, "Why did you give me that whisky!? That's not what I
asked for".
The bartender smiles, and says, "Say intentions". The man says, "I'm going
to go drink in that bar on the other side of the street where they don't
have so many confusing rules I have to follow."
The bartender smiles and pours the shot of whisky on the man's shoes, at
which point the man becomes enlightened.
