So many free drinks, but still not worth it.

How many times can you say that you’ve been propositioned for a sexual encounter? Well, I can add another one to my list. I don’t know if this is typical for girls in the city or if I just have the most random things said to me.

Best random comments of the summer:

• I will give you $100 for your shorts. (Said by a man in a business suit about my cutoff jean shorts)
• When I win the lottery, I’ll call you… then we can make another Obama. (Thank you homeless man on the subway)
• USE LESBIAN PROTECTION! (Homeless man yelled this at me, I don’t even know!)
• I'm a dancer, not a contortionist. (Girl we overheard on her cellphone)
  

Though these were random and funny, they were pretty harmless. However, last night I was talking to this bartender and we were having a completely normal conversation and out of nowhere he asked if I wanted to give him head. Wait. Hold up. What?!? Is that the way things work now? I mean, I’m no prude, but this is out of control. How is someone supposed to respond to that? I took my typical route, not that this happens often, but I just nervously laughed and asked for another drink (no worries, drinks were on him too). Do these types of things really work for guys?

With stories like these, it is hard convincing me that there are decent guys up here. Wouldn’t it be nice if it really did just rain men? Tall, blond, dark and lean, rough and tough and strong and mean! The Weather Girls know where my head is. Too bad kind, generous, humble, and chivalrous weren’t included in their description.
