RAZR. Flickr. XOXOX. Why bother with unnecessary letters when you can contract a word and still make it legible? Drinks didn’t sound like a good name for a bar, and it’s just one letter too many.
So the wizards behind the relatively-new bar in the Verizon Center came up with Drinx instead. And not by coincidence, that’s where we’re hosting our next DPHH After Five event. You heard it here first, people–this is the event where you can unwind after work and yak with your deaf or hard-of-hearing friends.
Get your calendrs out. Thursday, August 17th. Drinx. 601 F St NW. Gallery Place-Chinatown (Red/Yellow/Green Lines). 5:00PM to 7:00PM. See u ther 4 DPHHaftr5!

Sure it’s how the kids talk today, but it also helps with getting a trade mark. (The best drink-related name for anything though, is the liquor store in the Inner Richmond District of San Francisco called: Drink Liquor. Every store should just be named by what they want you to do.)
