My Life as a Dog.

So, I went out to a bar today. I'm, 49. Been a year and once before a year ago.

Before entering I bump into the local heroin girl. Known her for about 25 yrs. Very attractive, very much a hustler. So after some hem and hawing I give her $10. She makes around $500 a week hustlin. She is not a prostitute, just a money hustler to support the habit. I lived with her for a few weeks years ago so I know where she's at.

I walk into the bar and, same people that I saw last year. No Band. They had a pattio. I go out, get invited, and here's the kicker.

I could not relate to anyone. They seemed to have an IQ of 1 or zero or something. They would say something stupid and laugh for 3 minutes, like, that was funny. And they would dwell over the stupidist of things and make big deals and cry over nothing.

So, I finally went to the bar where the bartendress treated me like a bum.
Sometimes I don't shave and my pants are ripped. Ummm, soo..
So I get that treatment.

No wonder I don't go out anymore. :)
 
I thought this was about the movie of the same title... and by the way... welcome to my world... or better to say "yeah, I get it".

Genius!

I don't know if you was joking or for real there! :)

I think its a good idea not to let others hold you back..

we move on, we change its that simple..
 
I hear ya! I don't like most of the people as well, but I like most people here on DVXuser :D And I don't see the point of always going out. No money for that anyway... The internet is a good place to find people interested in the same things. Just make sure that you don't get totally isolated :)
 
I was expecting to hear you say you've been sniffing butts and humping legs. Gee, just find yourself a better bar. Even Hooters sounds like it would be a step up for you.
 
You could actually develop that into a kick ass book. I totally know where you are coming from, though. Even as young as I am I am often offended by the pure immaturity/stupidity of the younger folks.
 
Good to see someone else gets it, and I guess even that some can't. It wasn't a joke or inflated in any way. It was just another unexciting night in the small city and the life of yours truly. No big deal, just lame as hell.

My life is boring and stupid enough to be funny or at least laughable sometimes.

I had to get out of the house for awhile. The day before I bumped into a few former musicians and went to a jam, but that's another story. More bongs than bangs, but musicians are the coolest people to hang with, er, the cool ones anyways.

Yeah, it's nice to get out of the house sometimes, sometimes, lol.
 
Hey Penguin. Just had another fun moment.

I go into the beer store moments ago with $4.85 in emptys. I stand at the empty's area for a couple minutes and notice the big line up at the checkout. I decide to go there instead and order, then when paying I'll explain the rest is in the empties at the other area.

I order two cans, costs 6.05 for 2. I explain at the cash register that the rest is in the emptys over there "beacuse I don't have all day to wait around for someone to get to it". Ahhh, they didn't like that. The same way I don't like standing around for 20 mins.

"Count em up" I said. So, magically someone appears, counts and yells over the amount, I get my change , by 2 beer and on my way out the exit door.

Oh, I think to myself, hold on, I turn around and go back. At that point the dude sais, hey, you owe me another $4.

I said, how so? I was thinking you owe me another beer. I gave you 5, there's 4.85 in empties so...I plop my beer on the counter and say...I guess you owe me another beer!

After yelling back and forth to the guy that counted the empties, about how much the empties were, he agrees I was right and gives me another $3.

I figured, for another nickle, I could get another can, so I ask the guy behind in line if he has a nickel. I guess I can't do that because the store dude said to stop bothering the customers at which point I said "Mind you own fking business, I'm talking to someone here" and after pausing he said "Get Out" and I said "FkOff" and went back to who I was talking to.

So turning back to the dude I was asking about the spare nickel, he explains he has no nickels on him at the moment, hah, so I get it. Cool. Bad scene. Someone asking for a nickle to get another beer. WOW. Bad **** man. (Scarcasim) But I get it.

I walk out of the beer store and some guys are sitting in a big truck in the lot cheering me on. I raise my hands over my head with a can in each and procalim "It's a beer store, not a fking church!"

Walking home, a truck rolls by and a guy yells "It's a beer store, not a fking church!"

I wave. Guess that was him in the parking lot. :)

I did get some work done on the PC today so that was cool. I just can't seem to step out into the real world these days without some kind of **** flying, lol.
 
:grin: Good story, man. I wish I had one to share in return. I guess I do, but I am sure no one wants to hear it. Not even Tom who has yet to respond to my PM...:(

Entertain me. :) We all have stupid daily **** that goes on.

Tom's pretty good in replies. He's likely out at the moment.

Yeah, well, I sent the message yesterday and he said he would reply later but forgot. Yes, this is a public smear of Tom Marshall! :grin: Just kidding, he's my friend. I like messing with him. (Don't kill me).

Oh, and as for my issues, just more girl ****...
 
Nah man, public trash is cool. Bring it on.

Per Tom. Known him around dvx for a couple years. Musicain/Actor and cool guy.
So, if he has not replied there is a reason. Like getting hit with a meteor or a falling turd from a 747. Hey, it's dvx. It could happen. :)
 
Raptor-you can't rise above the crowd you're in. That would defeat the purpose of being with that group. There are groups (artists, writers, filmmakers) that don't care if your clothes are ripped. Don't quit now, unless you seclude yourself to write that novel or screenplay.

Either way, make work for you.
 
Just sayin what's happening in my dailies.

(Gotcha Metro, no prob.)

I guess I'm blogging like Penguin said although I didn't plan it that way. I think it's a side of life that most people don't see and don't want to see. As an artist of any kind, it's easy to grasp. As a 9-5 smo, it's unacceptable from their point of view.

If anyone would like to discuss subcultures, cool.
