Accidentley chatted up a fella "awkward"

bogwalrus · 31-10-2013 02:36AM #1

I am a straight male and do not go out drinking on the town much. Had an extremely awkward moment at the bar last weekend that I cant seem to shake. I have flash backs and it just makes me squirm. Maybe some of yee have had similar experience you can share so I know I am not alone.

So I'm up at the bar after having around 7 glasses of wine and ready for another nice tempranillo. The place is jammed and really noisy cause the singer from the commitments dad is on stage playing some bluesy Jazz.

I heard the guy next to me order a "cointreau" but what I heard was "can I have two C**T rows". (try imagine a Cork accent)

I said, hey iv'e never heard of that before, is it a cocktail? He looks at me and says yeah. It had been a long time since I had a bar counter chat so I continued inquiring about these two "C**T rows".

I was like so whats in the drink.

He kind of glanced at me and I remember I put on a big smile for some reason.

He looks away and out of complete awkwardness I asked him so do you come here often.

It was one of those moments where I realised exactly what I had just said and quickly said to him "i'm not trying to come on to you or anything".

He looked so freaked and it was silence for the next minute or so until he got his drinks.

I can honestly say I have never been in a more awkward situation.

Please anyone else?

Its around 5 glasses to a bottle in most places in Cork so lets say I had around a bottle and half to drink throughout the evening until pretty late. It was a very nice wine.

Yeah I get seriously hungover if I drink beer after wine. Whats the rhyme again? Beer before wine and you'll be fine.

I eyed up a hot blonde last night wearing a mini at a bustop.

I was standing there alone and she strolled up and stood in a few feet from me - lovely legs, nice arse.

Then she turned around and said:

"Mate, do you reckon I look like a bird?"

Was a guy on his way to a Halloween party :cool:

Wine. Jazz. Just come out, mate.

Glad to hear Rob Strong is still playing. Much better than the son.

Anyway, chatting up lads, somewhere along the line that night, you may have caught the ghey.

Background story, it was funny. Lighten the f*ck up.

I had a few Cunt Rows before.

It's a cocktail named after Benburb St.

I think some people might be able to picture the situation a bit better than others. It was really awkward when I asked if he comes here often. I think the fella felt uncomfortable talking to me from the start as I basically said to him "I have never heard of a contreau before".

shoot me now:(

But you already knew what was in the drink... as you'd just slipped some Roofalin in just moments before

Idle small talk until the drug kicked in and you could take him home and have your way..

The other guy sounds like a bit of a douche.
He seems more socially awkward than you, at least.

You're not a real man if you've not had at least one gay experience before you're 30.

Yeah it's:
Beer before wine and you'll be fine.
Wine before beer and you're a queer

...or something like that

SparkySpitfire · 31-10-2013 03:17AM

What the effs a tempranillo?

bogwalrus · 31-10-2013 03:19AM

I never thought of myself as socially awkward up until this event but that was maybe due to not actually being out drinking in months. When in doubt blame the other person, I like that thought.

In this context I believe it's a euphemism for sodomy.
