The other night at the bar, A Friend of mine, Let's call him Steve, was rapidly becoming drunk. He was eyeing up a girl at the bar. "What do you think would happen," he slurred "if I went up to her and told her she could have me for the night"?
"Girls don't go for that. You gotta be more subtle." I said.
Just then, someone else walked up to her and started hitting on her. Now the rules had changed. She was no longer the single girl alone at the bar. She was talking to someone, and if you were going to interrupt them, It had better leave her impressed, and him stunned and unable to continue.
"Here's the plan" I said. Not actually sure what plan I was talking about."All you have to do is walk up to her, give her a peck on the cheek, say 'sorry I'm late honey. Did you want to get going?'" and she'll be yours.
He seemed eager to try out this approach, but still a little lacking in the confidence... Then, as he was preparing his courage, I explained to his brother, Warren,what was about to happen.
Warren and I sat back and waited for what would surely result in some entertainment.
Then, to our surprise, (and I am not making this up). IT WORKED!! She
grabbed her jacket and stood up. He came back to our table, grabbed his jacket,
looked at me and mouthed the words 'now what?' his eyes full of panic. He had no car. He wasn't taking here anywhere.....
Le turned back to the girl and followed her out the door. He refuses to tell us what happened next...
