The silly of stupidity

You know, funny things happen when you work at a place full of young college students. They're very independent peoples so they like to do what they want to do, even if it makes them look like totally sillies/idiots/dummies/etc.

So, you know. I see a lot of drunk people who come in completely high after a night on the town (BEFORE 12!!!) on days when I close at O'Henry's. Well, last Friday there was this completely floored guy who came in and ordered a sandwich in all caps. I MEAN HE TALKED LIKE THIS THE ENTIRE TIME HE ORDERED!!! I wonder if drunkenness makes it hard to hear? I wouldn't know.

Okay, so then he starts talking to us, mostly to the girl making his sandwich, and he says some bizarre things. He unwrapped his sandwich after we got it to him to make sure we cut it (surprising, since we always cut sandwiches and most people don't do that even when they're not drunk) then decided he needed to thank us by blessing us. He said something about being from a different country and asking a spirit to bless us (he was totally Caucasian and wore a cowboy hat and everything, what) and decided one of our workers, a Korean friend of mine, would be called Oliver Asian. He also said it was something "beyond Jesus" apparently totally without a thought of possibly offending someone, but yeah. He was drunk.

So, in short, it was kinda funny. But there were a lot of drunk people that night, and the sad thing is that when we have drunks it also means we'll have a big mess because they don't know how to throw away their trash. My freshman year a group of drunk guys came in one night and turned all the couches in the main Cate lobby upside-down. Very impressive, guys. Girls are TOTALLY into completely crashed dudes, especially when they're LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS!!

Totally a rant, but it was kinda funny. Maybe if you work with me someday, you'll see it too.
