What does this mean?

I'm staying in a hotel in Minnesota (it's a casino, but I don't think that really matters).

In the house rules it says: "Violation of the 'NO DRUG' policy must be adhered to."

What does that mean?

Violation of the 'NO DRUG' policy must be adhered to. Any ideas?

Order some cocaine from Room Service and see what happens.
It certainly seems that you must adhere to violating the 'NO DRUG' policy.

And what is meant by 'drugs'?
Cocaine, heroin, and meth?
Or Advil, Tylenol, and Halls Cough Lozenges?

The hotel-casino has a drug policy for legal and/or PC reasons. That policy probably requires that violations be reported to authorities. It wouldn't be PR [not PC] correct to tell people "Violation of the 'NO DRUG' policy must be reported." That would drive off potential customers in an industry that's hurting for occupants. Instead, they awkwardly word it "Violation of the 'NO DRUG' policy must be adhered to." meaning that violations must be reported in adherence to policy. Thus, the house rule becomes more of a curiosity than a threat. The approach works if your introductory post is any indicator. :2cents:

It means that I hope some of the proceeds from the casino are going into the education system there.

I like how everyone just skipped over HLJ's parenthetical remark, ignoring, like all enablers do, the pink elephant in his post.

Hung, we want to help you, but first you have to admit you have a problem...

I'm out of quarters.

Check the fountains.

I prefer to interpret it with a loose match of verbs to subjects: you must adhere to (committing) the act of violating the "no-drug policy."

Abstain from abstaining.

I think is is a poorly worded form of don't use drugs in our hotel.

O and there is no strategy for roulette it is wholly random and you have a poor change of winning don't play.

Too late.

Hey, can I get a loan from the tip mug? I'll bring it right back, I promise.
toranokaze • May 19, 2010 7:28 pm
I have heard that one before

The hotel I work at also has a NO DRUG policy. Means if someone smokes pot in the hotel, they get kicked out, pay a $500 "cleaning fee" and are blacklisted from our hotel. In our case the policy is given to your at check in. If its broad enough, it will catch all violators, I guess.

I've been requested to write a bio for work. Shawnee, help me make some stuff up.

Like about the time you stole that old man's car, and drove to California, then you ran out of money and you had to rob a bank, then the car broke down because you accidentally drove through the parking lot of the broken glass factory, and you didn't have a spare, so you bought a motorcycle, and you passed that old man as he was walking down the street, car-less, and you gave him a ride home? 'Member that? That was funny.
HungLikeJesus • May 19, 2010 11:35 pm
I do dismember that. And I got a ticket for carless driving. I'll have to work that in after the groundhog and the talking walnut.

...and then, you wouldn't pay the ticket, and you went to court got thrown in prison and got regularly ass-raped by Boggs & the Sisters in the warehouse, then you broke out and met up with Red down in Zihuatanejo, and you guys built that boat? Good times, man, good times.

At the end of the show, you find out you're dead, and all the other characters are waiting for you.

At least it wasn't all a dream...:yelsick:
