grrrrr. an intoxicated rant... My girlfriend and I met a couple today at a free concert. We had a relatively good time (the dude was a bit obnoxious), but the show was good. Anyway, we end up in a pack of people bar hopping. Towards the end of the night, its just the couple, myself, and my girlfriend. Throughout the course of the night my girlfriend remarked numerous times how she really liked this girl and how much in common she shared with her, but her husband was a goof. On the walk back home Mr. Goof grabs my shoulder and states: " Stop, look at those two. Look how HAPPY they are". It is an obvious inuendo. It pissed me off because he was a little too close to my girlfriend at times this evening. I dismiss it as "been there, done that". Anyway, we end up back at my girlfriends house and eat some late night pizza and tater tots, sorry, no dinner pics of this  .Within an hour, I observe Mr. Goof do the following: Extinguish a cigarette on the lens cover of my girlfriends digital camera.  Actually go out of his way to look up my girlfriends skirt [;(!] ...and the straw that finally made my loose my shit? The copious amounts of urine around the toilet. I have never met a more obnoxious, disrespectful person in my entire life. Why did it go this long? I trust my girlfriend to handle herself. In a way, I guess it was a test. She failed. I told her what I saw, and that these two could not stay. I was beyond furious. After a couple of minutes of controlled breathing to calm myself down, and to give her the chance to deal with these two, I came out of the bathroom and told the two to leave immediately. He actually stood up for himself. What surprised me the most, was my girlfriend appologized for me. Mrs. Goof stood up for Mr. Goof by saying she didn't want me "shoving" my repressed anger on either of them, so she was all in favor of leaving. Mr. Goof said he'd see me in 80 years. [:(!)  How old was Mr. Goof? Mid to late 30's. Unfuckingbeliveable. Girlfriend is passed out. For now I'll chalk up her (in)actions as influenced by alcohol. It will be interesting to hear what she has to say about it when she is sober. Repressed anger or not, the dude was disrespectful and had to go. I have to work in 5 hours. Good night. Mohabie |
Mrs. Goof is a teacher, and my girlfriend is finishing her masters in art education. The two were yapping so much about education and getting into deep intellectual thought, I just couldn't say 'no'. I knew if I kept an eye on him, she wouldn't be at risk. But pissing around the toilet was enough. I had to step in. |

And you let them in your home?? WTF? Cigarette out on the lens of your GF's camera? I would have said "Hey congrats, you just bought that fucking camera, CASH NOW!" What really sucks is that they know where you live. do you really know them or where they live? Yeah, I would say you just learned a VERY valuable lesson. ETA: Sorry. dont mean to sound like a prick. I was in the same boat (longer version though) and basically changed my life forever. I have to agree with DKProf.... I hate people too. If you were my friend Pre-1996, they are still around ... anyone I met since ... I dont trust. |

Well ya learned something, be more adamant with your gf about who comes into your house.. and hang around. "Extinguish a cigarette on the lens cover of my girlfriends digital camera." Uh, repressed anger.. no.. doesn't even seem like you have much of a temper.. I would have wanted to throw Mr. Goof out of a window if he went out of his way to destroy something of mine for no reason.. He owes your gf a camera... I'd say if your gf has Mrs. Goofs number tell him he owes you a new camera.. If he says it doesn't matter it still works ask him if you can dent up his car  . Since Mr. Goof won't pay (doesn't sound like it at least) i'd bring him to small claims court..

I've spent a long time in social situations, as a person who played in bands and dated quite a bit. Turns out that people+bars+alcohol = trouble. Always, eventually. Always. Since my wife and I stopped bar hopping, amazingly there's been a conspicuous lack of drama in our lives. Weird, huh? |

But on the other hand, I thought It was on the actual camera, not just the lens cover, in the midst of a drunk fueled night, that could look an awful lot like an ashtray. The urine on the floor, ohkay guys, like you got the perfect aim all the time, I know I have been to a couple of parties, that I was amazed that I got TO the bathroom. I mean it is gross, and disrespect, but again achohol probably has a lot to do with it. As far as looking up your girls skirt, I wasn't their so I don't know, but there will be times when I am just looking off into space cause I don't want to look at who I am talking to, and a couple of times It looks like im checking out the goods. |
