You mean you're
over it now? Geez, from your latest
series of posts about it, I'da thought otherwise, but then you know how easy I am to hook.
Alright, let me say this. What happened to me would not have happened to you, OK? You have more street smarts, a better ability to confront people, an ability to continue having a good time after you confront people,
How do you know
any of this?
You really think I've never had strippers get over on me? It happens to
everybody who goes to underground events, or even regular stripclubs, for chrissake! It's part of the scene.
Like the other guy said, hustle is part of the territory in stripclubs, it always has been & always will be & it's ridiculous to assume you won't encounter it. It's equally absurd to think all of it comes from the girls & not from pervs as well.
It's equally ridiculous to expect all these girls to behave like Mother Cabrini or whatever. They're not saints, they're
strippers. And they're not there like you & me to have a good time with affordable discretionary dollars. They're there to make a
living, it's a serious business to them & the money is a serious (& in fact the
only) issue as far as they're concerned.
That means if they see an edge many of them are gonna exploit it, cause it makes a difference in their take home pay & their take home pay is the only reason they're there.
and you know more than me about the UG scene, AssC
Maybe, if you've just started going. But it's not exactly "knowledge" that's worth a helluva lot. Of all the things worth knowing in life,
this is at the bottom of the list, believe me.
and probably a lot of other things.
What the fuck ever gave you
that idea?
If you're dying to call me some names then go right ahead and get it out of your system.
Who the fuck came into this dying (or even
looking) to call
you names?
In case you forgot, my initial post in this thread wasn't even
addressed to you--it was in response to Thorn, who opined that what the girl did was "tantamount to theft". My response to
him was that that was ridiculous, that the original description of the incident sounded to me like a "pressure sales tactic" (a "hustle", if you will), but certainly not theft according to any definition of that word I'm familiar with.
That post of mine ran a grand total of 5 sentences. It didn't call him any names, it didn't call you any names, it didn't call
anybody any names. Yet, you followed up your original lengthy post with an even lengthier response providing additional "details" & accusing
me of being "loquaciously antagonistic".
Does some saying about the pot & the kettle spring into mind at this point?
Relax and enjoy life, dude.
Thanks for the sentiment. I'm certainly having a great time on this thread.
Continually pointing out what you think are other people's faults will not make you feel any better about yourself in the long run.
Perhaps you should keep that thought in mind when asking for strippers to be fired from their gigs, when accusing others at length of "loquacious antagonism" or whenever you feel inspired to look in the mirror.
What really makes other folks feel good about themselves is taking responsibility for their own actions insteada trying to lay it off on others. Also when they adopt a realistic view of people & situations & not expect walking into an underground party to be the equivalent of visiting ascetic monks in Tibet.
Let's talk about fun stuff instead.
Yeah, like getting girls fired from their gigs. Now
that's a world of fun!
From the gist of your descriptions of this event, what seems to have happened here is that the girl
hustled you. She took a shot & you let her get away with it.
Was that an "honorable" thing for her to do? No. Is it even "defensible"? No. But it's certainly understandable. And it's definitely not theft.
And while I'm certainly not praising her for it, nor claiming that mosta the girls at underground parties are necessarily like that, understand that at the enda the day, she took home that extra $10--& taking the money home is the only reason these girls are there.
It may not let us live longer but we'll sure have a better time.
Well,
I wasn't the one suffering agita from this whole issue. I wasn't the one calling for anybody's head.
I think if you accept the fact that some girls are gonna try to hustle you at parties & if you deal with it
at the time to the extent you're able & to the extent it's important to you, & if you accept the fact that in life sometimes you win & sometimes you lose & that's true for everybody--then I think you're in a better position to appreciate & enjoy these girls & these parties for what they really are & to have a truly good time.
Seems to work for me, at least.
