Conversation I just had at Starbucks

Perky Young Southern Tourist: Do either y'all know where Hooters is?

Me: (wearing shades indoors, yawning, hands folded across my chest) silently shakes head no

Hipster-ish Dude To My Right: 56th and Broadway.

Me: (internally) No, Citibank is on 56th and Broadway. Oh yeah, I think it's on 7th. (out loud) I think it's on 56th and 7th, actually.

HDTMR: 56th and Broadway.

Me: No, Citibank is on 56th and Broadway.

HDTMR: Yeah, it's right across the street from there. Trust me, I've been there a bunch of times.

Me: Well, either way, you'll find it.

PYST: So it's not far...

HDTMR: It's a one minute walk.

PYST: Well, I'm no New York walker-person!

Barista: Grande Green Tea Latte?

Me: (internally) THANK. GOD.


Oh! I'm sorry! I believe this map taken off of Hooters.com indicates that it's on 7th f*cking Avenue, dick-face*!

Enjoy your wings, PYST. I'm sure HDTMR was enjoying your breasts and thighs.

*I don't really care about this, do I?

Some of us have been trying to find hooters for 22 years...but all we got was this lousy t-shirt.

It's actually between Broadway and 7th Avenue.

Wow, that's cheap. In Vancouver, hooters will set you back three to ten thousand.

Were your hands folded across your chest? Or your arms? Picture it. Because I think, with the yawning+shades+folding stuff you were trying to get across the whole "too cool for school" thing, but hands folded across your chest would really look really really stupid. I think you meant arms.

If you're so cool why are you in a Starbucks?

You're a fuckin' mope is what you are!

I hope you intend to make money blogging because YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME, CHOWDERHEAD!

Awesome, I'm so glad the wannabe pretentious "New Yorker" is alive and well! "Oh, I just CAN'T be bothered until I get my super-sized green soy skim vanilla cappabullshit from fancy Dunkin' Donuts!"

Do us a favor and hurry up and move (back?) to Jersey, douchebag. THANK. GOD.
