....And Then Brent Got Drunk Pt. 238

Okay, I think I enjoyed my newfound free weekends too full of freedom on Saturday night. I went to a nice bar called "Margaritas" with my friends to enjoy a really nice house band that plays all kinds of cool pop tunes from the 80's. Well to make a long story short, I was force fed tequilla shots and started to get a little too relaxed and started busting out 80's dance moves you can only see now-a-days when TBS reruns "Can't Buy Me Love". I guess I was also singing out all the lyrics to Duran Duran and Billy Ocean songs while this girl was trying to start up a conversation with me. After a few minutes I was told she got tired of me belting out "Hungry Like A Wolf" and gave up on me. As sad as it is in my dateless state, I still think its kind of funny that I scorned a girl for Duran Duran.

I am Brent's finely tuned art of repulsion.

I am surprised this behavior did not draw the young woman in.

Obviously, the young lady wasn't drunk enough to appreciate the extent of Brent's balladry. Better luck next time, dude. BTW, did I mention I'll be seeing Duran Duran in a couple of weeks? I'll be thinking of you when I belt out Hungry Like the Wolf. :D

You've learned a very important lesson: save the Duran Duran until after you get married. Once she makes the legal commitment, she'll probably stay even if you sing their newer stuff.

You're going to have to have a kid before you move on to Kajagoogoo or Scritti Politti, though. Just to be safe.

Brent, perhaps it was a subconscious thing--trying to repel the girl....or secretly wanting to?

Okay ,and please everyone post a comment so you can see KrullKrusher's animated photo in the comments section. Krull is actually a red-haired Will Farrell playing cowbell. Who knew?

I'm visiting from Steph's place. (And I'll be back.)

I have been drawn in from the likes of a white guy belting out Belinda Carlisle - only beer and shots of VERY strong vodka could have kept me away from you . . .

Finely tuned, indeed. I'm impressed.

But if I were her, I would simply have been charmed. And maybe joined in.

P.S. You should post a video of the dance routine. Retro-core.

i second the motion for a video of you singing whilst intoxicated and maybe you can even throw in an absurb mating dance.. hell i'd pay to see that shit.. in fact.. i'll wire the money tomorrow.. use it to buy cheap beer, best of the 80's cassettes, and leg warmers.

you do the rest...

Come on, who doesn't want to be serenated by Duran Duran?

Serenated -- ouch! Sounds like catching your fingers in a cheese grater.
