Nothing to do with marketing whatsoever

Nothing to do with marketing whatsoever
 
Howdy.  This blog entry has nothing to do with marketing or business whatsoever, but I thought I would share it anyway.
 
You see, it's the funniest thing I've ever seen and I just have to tell someone!
 
I was at a bar last night with a friend of mine.  We were standing there, having a beer and listening to a band.  All good so far.
 
Some guy came up beside us and ordered a beer.  He was with a woman (they were both about 40 you) and it turned out they were on their first date.  They were having a good night.  The guy was very happy.  In other words, he had already had a lot to drink and all was good in his world.
 
His lady friend went off to the Ladies room.

All good so far.
 
But while she was gone another women stood beside the guy at the bar.  Remembering that he'd had a bit to drink........he thought it was his date standing beside him.  I heard him say these fateful words, "So, would you like a dance?"
 
The new girl on the scene was taken aback for a second but quickly agreed.  They raced off to the dance floor and started to dance away.
 
And now things turn bad
 
So this guy is up dancing with a girl whom he thinks has been his date all night.  So he starts to dance close.  Real close.  Hand on the a$$ sort of close.  They were getting cosy on the dance floor.  Very cosy indeed.
 
Then his actual date for the night returns from the bathroom.  She says to me, "Where did he go?"
 
I said, "I think he's gone to the bathroom." 
 
Heh, it's a guy thing!  I was trying to save this poor, stupid man.
 
But to no avail.

After about 30 seconds his date spotted him on the dance floor, dancing with the other woman. They were dancing close still.  Too close.
 
This guy's date for the night marches up to him, confronts him, slaps him hard (real hard) across the face, brings her knee up to a very sensitive spot (ouch!) and storms off.  The girl who this guy was dancing with also storms off in confusion.

And this poor guy is gasping for breathe in the middle of the dance floor, eyes watering, face stinging, unable to have children, not knowing what the hell just happened.
 
Me??
 
I'm at the bar having quite a chuckle.   I wanted to explain to the jilted woman but she wouldn't have believed me. Anyway, I wanted to stay clear of that lethal knee.
 
Now that's funny.
 
Have a good weekend.
