Dear The Reader
You know that whole "last night was awesome. I got soooooooo drunk!" thing? I got to experience that from a sober DJ point of view at a birthday party last night. A crowd of stupid drunk, forty-something year old women who wanted what they wanted now.
Now, I'll admit some of those ladies were pretty good looking. But as soon as their eyes drooped and their speech slurred and their steps staggered they were no longer attractive.
But then it got worse. As the night got later women (I refuse to call them ladies) came up and said things like "The birthday girl wants you to skip this song. She doesn't like how it starts." and "Can you play music that doesn't suck?"
Seriously? You just asked for Katy Perry and now you think it sucks?
These women are all that's wrong with the drinking culture. It's almost surprising they didn't start a fight.
The lesson we can all take away from this is don't get drunk. You do stupid things and the sober people end up hating you and hoping you end up getting your stomach pumped.

I don't know where to start with this one.
ReplyDeleteFirstly, I've never understood the fascination people seem to have with getting drunk. Maybe I'm a closet control freak or something, but I get upset by the idea of consuming something that is going to impair my judgement and possibly make me lose control of myself, particularly in front of other people. Where is the attraction in that?
Secondly, well actually I'll keep my second point to myself. I suspect that I'm the only one who would be amused by it.
I want to point out that women aren't the only ones who behave like idiots like this and it isn't only women of this age group who do it either (although I have to say that that appalls me more than if it had been young women, as I would have expected a bit of show of maturity from ladies of this vintage) but I reckon you already know this and I don't want to come off as defending these women in any way, as I don't condone their behaviour at all. To me, most of all, it just shows an amazing lack of class and self restraint.
Have I ranted enough? Good. I'm pretty sure you get my drift.
I forgot to add that I'm also aware that I'm not one of the overwhelming majority when it comes to this issue and that boggles my mind. I shake my head in stupefication.
