Get in line. There's a claims process. You can find the submission bar date online.

Date was not very attractive - tall, not ugly, but strange habit of making a weird face once in a while. Also did not look me in the eye.

Conversation was painful. I was doing most of the question-asking and carrying the conversation. Then, he asked me what I like to do on the weekends. So I said that most weekends these days I box for several hours on Saturday morning and he says:

"Boxing? Really? that's so vulgar. Women shouldn't box. Especially pretty women that look like Audrey Hepburn. It's so vulgar."

So I just stared at him thinking wtf. And I said that I didn't think it was vulgar at all, and it's a lot of fun, and I enjoy it a lot and I'm into it.

Awkward silence.

Then he says, "So, you're from Canada?" and I asked him if he had ever been there. And he said that he had been to Mont-Tremblant, but it was so cold that he stayed in the hottub most of the time.

And by then I couldn't take it any more, and although I'm generally very sympathetic to people who don't like cold weather, I was pissed, so I said "hmm. Well, I'd much rather be vulgar than a big pussy who can't take the cold."

Then I said I had to go feed my cat. And I gave him $ for my drink and left.

That's 37 min of my life I'll never get back.
Congrats on cutting and running.

That is how you do it. No use in wasting time. I'd have tapped the bar three times and cried submission after the horrible Audrey Hepburn line. Thats godawful. Where the fuck do guys get that stupid shit? "If I compliment her on looking like a 60s starlet she may or may not recognize, within 15 min of meeting her - while backhandedly insulting her interests - I'm SURE to get laid!" How does such a douchebag survive in NYC? Don't answer that last one... I know. 90% of the world is douchebags.

That's why our salad dressing supply is never at risk.

And your thoughts are exactly what I was thinking. Fuck, I am one of the easy ones. This guy must never ever get laid.

Very right, and I hate to nitpick (well, I don't really hate it, and you know it's a sign of affection) or take you so fucking literally (wouldn't hate it, would be a sign of affection) except . . .

Audrey Hepburn is a "60s starlet [a woman] may or may not recognize"?

Even I learned long ago that if you want to get laid, bag the lines. They never work. I think douches like this cat forget that to get any, you have to connect, and to connect, you have to put away the facade. Its fucked up. People spend so much time try to figure out how to get laid, not realizing that its all the figuring and overthinking that sinks them every time. And why the fuck would you want to be with somebody whom you'd tricked into believeing you were something you're not? It makes no sense... entirely self-defeating right out of the gate.

RP - I type fast. The English, it suffers as a result.

ETA - Yes, this is my pompous post of the day.

On the plus side, you'll have a good, heartwarming story of one night of celibacy for your grandnieces and -nephews.

I've read Running With Scissors and Dry. I think I even posted about them here a year or more ago. First the SNL book, now this. I didn't realize how ahead of the curve I really am.

RWS was funnier than Dry, but for some reason while reading RWS I couldn't stop making the David Sederis comparison (Sederis is funnier, as you might have guessed) whereas with Dry it felt less like Burroughs was trying to compete with Sederis, so it rang more true to me. Or maybe it is because I've known a lot of alcoholics. He's supposed to be close to releasing his 3rd memoir. About his relationship with his father.


ETA links to places where I invented this discussion. Because I'm feeling a bit snarky today.

Look at that. I was feeling snarky on 7-22-2004 also. Maybe it's a trend.


EFTA crap, outed again as a person Hank has on ignore!
