per-di-tion (pər-dĭsh'ən)
n.
1.
a. Loss of the soul; eternal damnation.
b. Hell: "Him the Almighty Power/Hurl'd headlong . . . /To bottomless perdition, there to dwell" John Milton.
2. Archaic Utter ruin.
[Middle English perdicion, from Old French, from Late Latin perditiō, perditiōn-, from Latin perditus, past participle of perdere, to lose : per-, per- + dare, to give; see dō- in Indo-European roots.]
Which of these definitions is most appealing (or appalling)? (1a), "loss of the soul," is perhaps apt given PN's demographic (once described by Vineel as "white and a little bit beige"). Not much soul here, no. And (2) is the fate PN is leading us all towards, one lost Wednesday night at a time.
But I'm going with (1b), because we loved Hell and would appreciate the chance to resurrect some old demons. I think you'll also approve of the hip-yet-inviting space, the cool bartenders, and the big selection of drafts, with which we can make sad toasts to the condemned Blind Tiger Ale House.
See you in...Perdition! (Eh.) And drag your friends down with you!
