Last night I was at at nightclub with my friend Meredith & Brad. Me and Meredith were seated at a table, on a bench. Across from us was Brad. He got up to talk to someone. Not long after, a guy sat down in his spot. Me and my friend kept talking. I assumed the guy was friends with her, since she knew a lot of people at "the club".
After awhile, she asks me if I want a drink. I demure, and she goes to get one for herself. Not long after, the other guy gets up and filters back into the crowd. I assume he is one of her friends, and didn't feel comfortable just sitting with me... but I think it's weird that he didn't even introduce himself.
Moments later, Meredith sits back down, laughing. "I just told that guy you were my boyfriend!" she exclaims. "What guy, your friend?" I ask. She explains that she thought the guy was MY friend and we both shake our heads at how weird it is that some stranger had just sat down at our table and listened to us talk for 10 or 15 minutes.
Not long after this, it's closing time and Andy has joined us. A burly guy with a mustache walks up to our table and stands there. All three of us look up at him. I thought he was a bouncer maybe, telling us to clear out. But no, he glances over at Meredith, looks her up and down for a few moments, then turns and walks off.

erica norman mailer [ url ] said at 12:29 PM 07-16-2004: yeah but isn't there like a punk/hardcore dj night there on mondays?

kara [email] said at 12:22 PM 07-16-2004: theres this guy that we (me and Ang) call "David Lynch Guy" because he's always lurking around weirdly in the background everywhere we go.
Of course on the day that we finally agreed "man who IS that weird guy he's always alone in the background," he had to ruin it all by approaching me and introducing himself.

He is wierd and unattractive, so I start dancing with my male freind to distract him, but NO. He is still dancing behind me. We laugh at this persistance, and then all 4 people I was there with start dancing in a circle around me, like ring-around-the-rosy style, in an obvious attempt to thwart this guy's advances, and he's STILL trying to thrust his way in. Eww I still feel dirty. I don't even like going to clubs without a guy friend I can pretend is my boyfriend.
Pinky said at 7:35 PM 07-16-2004: Creepy people are a problem for everyone, not just the superhot. Lots of creepy guys just go for anything that has a vagina. Actually, in my case he may have targeted me because I looked like the weak one of the heard, who knows.
