One of my favorite places to go to on a Sunday is Union Park. That place is always banging in my opinion, has delish food, bottomless Mimosas and an amazing Bloody Mary bar. A few Sundays a month, DJ Mike Swing also spins there so I always get to jam out as well. Just like anywhere else, there is a variety of different individuals who are capable to entertain me. I can be a people watcher, especially when I am not drinking much. This was the case this past Sunday. I have been getting over the sickness and due to the fact that I still have some cough, only had a few drinks.
The story goes something like this. I went up to a bar to get my first yummy Prickly Pear Mimosa. I had a girl on a left of me and a guy to the right. The girl leans over me and taps the guy on the shoulder. He pays no mind to her at first so she taps him two more times. He turns around and she says, “Oh my goodness, your hand is sooo big. It looks like it could totally crush the glass you are holding. I like that!”. I almost spat my drink out. The guy grinned awkwardly and turned back around… Is this how the pick up lines really work nowadays?! I swear the things that women and men come up with (or say without thinking) make me crack up. I should totally learn from them to get a man I deserve…NOT. LOL
There were some other bad lines and convos like, “Hey baby-girl, I got a new apartment, do you wanna come check it out after this?!”, “Sweetie, your sandal is untied, should I get on my knees and assist you with that?” (the girl was wearing the shortest skirt ever; or perhaps I should call it a “belt”), “Hi, I’m Mary. I am single so I f**k whoever I want. You down?”….and the list goes on.
I also witnessed an older woman do an awkward chicken dance on the floor, a group of four peeps (two guys and two girls) dance however instead of each guy being behind one of the girls, the formation went like this: guy -> guy -> girl -> girl. The day ended with a cocktail waitress telling my friends and I that they will be closing shortly. I asked her to define shortly. She paused, looked at me oddly and said, “What do you mean?” I replied, “You said that you guys are closing shortly, so what do you mean by shortly? 5 minutes, 30 minutes, once the drinks are done with?!” Of course she didn’t have anything specific to tell me. I think she was more tipsy than I was.
Bottom line, if you’re bored and there is nothing on TV – go somewhere on a Sunday Funday. I promise you, if you’re just kicking it and not looking for a “mate”, then you will have hella time observing people.
