mean drunk

I was at a birthday party Saturday night when I had this exchange with a guy I'd just met:

Me: Has anyone ever told you you look like a young Henry Rollins?
Guy: Who's that?
Me: Haa Haa. But seriously, you look just like him.
Guy: I really don't know who that is.
Me: (incredulous) Henry Rollins? Black Flag? Henry Rollins! Henry Fucking Rollins!
Guy: (Shrugs) Who is that? I really don't know.
Me: Has anyone ever told you you look like a dumb Henry Rollins?

(Fin)

And no, he wasn't kidding. Kids these days!

(And yes, I was mean, but it had to be done. Tough love!)

oh yeah, you were the normal one--so the guy wasnt dumb--he just didnt follow an obnoxious, low-life singer who fought with his audiences and didnt have any good music. Wow, what are you into?
