Random Drug Gossip: Unexpected Solicitation Edition

So I was at a local bar tonight—no, I’m not going to tell you which one—and had this interaction:

Dude: Hey, do any of you guys have a bowl?
Me: Pardon?
Dude: I said, do any of you guys have a bowl?
Me: Uh, no. Sorry, man.

Wow. That’s brazen. I mean, I don’t care. But wow.

Consider this your funny-bar-story thread.

    Is that really such a brazen question considering you’re at a bar on a late-night tuesday/wednesday morning? or any night, at that? people need to get their blaze on, dammit! perhaps you just look like spicolli ordering a pizza when you’re on your cell phone in an alley way…

    i was just onCL looking for potentil roommate and maybe i’m just not in the right space to process this, but:
    (quote):Me and my fiance need a place to live with our male kitten. If anyone has anything out there that they could help us with. We do get 300.00 in food stamps and we will help with that and we can give you 130.00 right now and more next week if that’s what you need. Thank you so much
    (/end quote)

    /does this mean they would like to pay in food stamps?

    /rathered i lived in my van than post such a query to strangers, let alone friends.

    //definitely not down by the river.-just to head That comment off.

    ///but are they looking to pay in (non-transferrable) food stamps?
    and why do they have a kitten?
    cats don’t like to live in cars.

    I think it was just a perfectly innocent request for a bowl so he could indulge in an emergency supper of nutritious cereal. Did you check for a box of Honey Nut Cheerios under his arm? Some 2%? No…. just jumped to conclusions as usual.
    Shame on you Stanley.

    I got a similar solicitation yesterday at around 5PM. I was walking on the mall and this dude asks …

    Dude “What time is it”
    Me “Um, about 5PM”
    Dude “Where can you score the good dank”
    Me.. Walk Away

    @2, Floozy does make an insightful observation.

    Excellent point, Floozer. As it was, I had only a dessert plate, my cheese knives, and a tea cup. I was not at all prepared to supply the full accoutrements to a cereal killer.

    Stanley, are you really all that surprised that Parlie asked you for a bowl at the bar?

    Gobbler said:

    Stanley, and take this with a gram of salt, perhaps you just look like the kind of guy that carries a bowl around in his pocket.

    @4. I figured the god of thunder would know at least ONE place to score some nersh.

    Stanley said:

    The guy’s reaction was, “I mean, I had to ask,” so you might be onto something there, Gobbler.

    Loosely related:

    I have a friend who had a key chain made out of a spoon. We were at a bar one night, and some guy saw it and said “Is that for freebasing heroin?” She gave him a WTF-look and said “No, it’s a key chain.”

    I’m gonna start asking people if they have a towel. Even though, I always remember mine. But sometimes I forget and leave it at parlie’s house, where it always seems to get sucked up by the vacuum…

    @31 is a most appropriate comment springboard for me to launch rumors that Scowly™-brand towels may be in the works for qualified ‘Villains.

    I’m not gonna inhale and not exhale waiting for those towels. I’m still waiting for the Scowly Stickers. Common already, spicey bear. Let’s do some marketing…. and…. (back to topic) drugs.

    My dad used to keep a bong stashed behind the couch when I was a kid. I asked him what it was and he told me and after that everytime someone came over I screamed, “There’s a BOMB behind the couch!” and would run over and point at it.

    A guy goes into the doctor to get his test results. The doc says, “I have bad news for you. You have cancer, and you have Alzheimer’s.”

    The guys sighs with relief: “Well, at least I don’t have cancer!”

    Stan… what’s that little thingy on post 56?
    Oh good joke by the way… here’s a variation…
    Old guy brings his wife of 50 years to the doc because she is acting strangely. Doc runs tests and delivers the bad news.
    Doc: “Sir, we have narrowed the diagnosis down to 2 possible conditions… AIDS or Alzheimer’s”
    Old guy: ” Well how are you going to find out which one it is?”
    Doc: ” Well your Medicaid is maxed out for the year so we advise you to take her off in the car an leave her on the side of the road a few miles away, and if she finds her way home, for Gods sake don’t fuck her”
    /submit compaints to Stan… he started it.

    I think this is the most interesting thread we have had in a long time. Aka I am thoroughly entertained. Yay for reviving the internets or better roofing/drugging her.

    @63 Lisa’s right, Stanley. You should have gotten up and grabbed him by the arm and said “you’re under arrest, scumbag!” and then dragged him out to the sidewalk, and eventually taken a bribe to let him go. or taken his drugs and let him go.

    that’s how we do it in the fo-three-fo.
