A Question For The Guys

[Nickdfresh]

Its also a considerate way to say hello and get a smile!

If you want to smile and say hello, just smile and say hello. You'll come off far more normal and warmly than hovering around like a creeper and trying to ply them with alcohol...the real smile is far more important than the empty, symbolic one...

Worrying about your lame, overly wordy post, more than twenty minutes later is even more gay, Dickforbreath...

Sorry, next time I'll draw pictures on your Louisiana cave-wall--so you can understand better--inbred hick everyone thinks is a douche....

See I never hang out at the young people's bar, unless I'm playing there.

It's not really a "young peoples' bar" per-say. It's actually a mixed age pseudo-Irish (sports) bar-restaurant with shitty pub food and very little discernible personality that I rarely frequent anymore. It just sort of changes depending how long you're there, but the funny thing is I almost always end up talking to someone there--especially when I'm not looking too. But I actually never go to dance clubs and all that shit...

Just can't become one of those guys I used to make fun of when I was in my 20's.

Guys who actually get laid?

So you and Kwame would never spend money on a woman unless you think you're going to get something in return? Hmmm...

Broken hearted? Oh my...this is serious.

Playing both sides, are we? But let me ask you this. If you were in a bar, met an interesting person, and he bought you successive drinks, would you buy him one back? Would you buy "a round?"

can't find the pic, but a favorite cartoon where the bartender is talkin' to a lady at the bar and an old sot sittin' on the opposite side of the bar. tender says to the lady " the gentleman over there would like you to buy him a drink"

Just buy her a virtual drink with paypal and pull your pud, Dickforbreath...

Why set yourself up to be shot down from a distance? Go talk to her!

I'm kind of getting to that point. Plus, if you're playing there, chances are way more likely the girls will buy YOU drinks...that's how I hooked up with my former gf...had known her peripherally for a bit, but one night she was sending shots up after every set (sometimes during). I asked her why the sudden generosity and she replied "I dunno, I was kinda wondering if I could get you drunk and take advantage of you..." Bingo. Why, yes you can!

Conversely, that approach would NEVER work on a girl, but worked on me because A) She's kinda cute and B) I'm easy.

But I'm getting past the point of being the dude hanging in the bar going "Hey baby..." and even when I was I can only think of ONE time I sent a random girl a drink - she politely declined, smiled and waved, and when the bartender came back he said "She said to tell you she would have accepted , but she's leaving..."(she had apparently been there for a bit before I got there). So there's a timing issue in that scenario to be factored in there, too...lots of room for it to go wrong rather than be successful, IMO.

From a perspective from behind the bar:

LOVE these guys who do this. :D

When they finally get the nerve to talk to the chick, they always massively over-tip in hopes she'll think he's either a swell guy, or loaded.

Your Bartender Tip of The Day:

Hey guys, did you notice the phone number she just gave starts with 555?.....and no, it doesnt mean she's on TV alot

If I buy a round for the house, does that mean I want an orgy..?

According to the bars you hang out in, that'll set you back a whoppin' $12

Depends if you're talking about your trailer or an actual bar

How does a meth lab get a liquor license, exactly? :D
