Mental note: next time let fury happen, it'll be a more entertaining and longer last memory. |
^^^Wurd!
I had TWO run-ins this weekend...one could have become the most beautiful ass-kicking of a guy who REALLY deserved it (totally out of control a-hole with no class, who didn't know the meaning of "no" from the girls I was with and just kept pawing at them and making lewd comments). Due to some confusion at the time about who he was though (I thought we were sitting at his private table, where a seriously drunk friend of mine was busy vomiting in to the table's ice-bucket, lol...turns out it wasn't even this guy's table though), I abstained from making a scene. And it was at Circus of all places...a place that's going to be closed in 2 more weeks! Who cares if I was to be "permanently banned" at that point! Eh, anyway...back to washing machines...
Normally, I try to NOT look at them, because they ARE a vibe-killer, for the following reasons;
1.) They obviously are NOT there for the music. They wouldn't know the DJ from the Janitor. They are there to get F'D UP! And that's it. They should either stay home and put on a shitty trance CD and get fucked up there, or they should be cordoned off in to a section of the dance floor where they won't bother anyone...some place where they can be roundly laughed at, like freaks in a zoo!
2.) I'm not a snob about drug use, but I DO get bothered by people who just want to get SO screwed up on anything and everything, to the point where they wouldn't know if they were dancing in a club, or dancing to the muzack in the Supermarket. If I wanted to see people overdosing (sweating, eyes rolling in the back of their heads, totally oblivious, etc.), I'd party in the waiting room of the local hospital.
People who are out of it on drugs are also inconsiderate and rude by default.
3.) It is a free country, true, and I try to not let it get to me, but it just does! To watch grown people act so irresponsibly on so many levels. For those who appreciate the music, it's not dis-similar to being at a museum with some close friends to see a work of art, and then having a bunch of out of control, drugged up teenagers come barging in to graffiti the walls, T.P. the balconies and generally make drunken asses of themselves...and it's all condoned by security, for some unknown reason! That's what always gets me! I know people who stumble once and BAM! They get thrown out. But 30 Asians can be hogging up a couch, passed out with their eyes literally rolling up in their heads, and Security does everything but get them a pillow and a blanket!
This last Saturday at Avalon, just out of curiosity, I watched to see how long a "washing machine" can be kept-up, before one passes out from all that flipping of the head back and forth thing. It was AMAZING! It was going on before I got there, and it was still going on after I left that spot on the floor a good 30 minutes later! I pointed it out to my friend and said; "Can you believe that they are still standing? Try flipping your head back and forth like that right now for 60 seconds and tell me how long you can remain standing before you get a bad case of the spins and fall down?"
I'd like to see a club where instead of Kryo, they have a bucket of nice, cold ice-water that travels above the dance floor, dumping on the un-suspecting washing machines in order to wake their asses up!
