Bob and I met on the Internet. We were both into music, and he asked me out, telling me that he had tickets to a concert on a forthcoming Friday night. One of the bands playing was one I love, and they were on tour, so it sounded like a great plan. We made it a date. I was excited about it all week.
As arranged, we met outside the venue. Bob showed up looking a little different from his online pictures. To start, he clearly hadn't shaved in several days.
"Hey, I don't have the tickets," he said, "What do you want to do instead?"
I asked him, "Didn't you say that you had tickets?"
He said, "I think so, but I guess I was hoping to pick them up here. But they're too expensive. Unless you want to buy them for us."
I had been looking forward to seeing both Bob and the band. However, Bob fell far short of my expectations, and the band probably wouldn't.
I wished Bob a good night, bought a ticket for myself, and had a great time.
He hadn't shaved? Eff. Are you okay?
ReplyDeleteIt's called a beard Kate
ReplyDelete^ Not everyone finds beards attractive.
ReplyDeleteGlad you managed to have a good time anyway, OP!
The OP says he hadn't shaven in days. What she doesn't elaborate on is his attire.
ReplyDeleteIf he rocked up in a mankini, then his chest rug and hairy back would have been clearly visible.
Sounds like the OP dodged a Yeti ...
Well done.
I really like it when we are only left to assume.
ReplyDeleteIt makes an ass out of...well, anyone, really.
^^ That gave me a lot of uncomfortable images 0_o
ReplyDelete(wait for it...waaaait for it...wait...ok..NOW!) BAAAAHHAAAAHHHAAAA!!! FABULOUS execution, OP!!! =)
