The topic at hand today is how to maneuver through a crowded bar. Most people know how to do this, but you'd be surprised at the amount of inconsiderate people out there.

So, there are 2 appropriate ways:

1. Let the person know you would like to pass by saying something polite to them. Excuse me seems to work quite well.

2. If the place is too loud for words (which they usually are), it's quite all right to place your hand on the person's shoulder or back to get their attention. That way they know you want to pass.

That seems simple enough right? Well, last night I had a bit of a problem with one girl who doesn't seem to know these basic thigns. I was standing there with my cousin and this girl walks from the bar towards the back which is where the bathrooms are located. On her way there, she bumps into me. She didn't look back or appologize. Even though she spilled my drink, I let it go. Now, I don't know what she was doing, but she came back pretty quickly. And wouldn't you know it...she bumped into me and spilled my drink, AGAIN!

That pissed me off. Once, I can let it go. Twice, seriously depends on the person and my mood. The fact that she didn't even appologize and she did it twice...I ended up shoving her back. Wow, this girl went off the deep end for sure. She started going off saying all this crap. I just stood there looking up at the ceiling and making my point that she shoved and spilled my drink twice. She finally went back to where she was standing at the bar. To avoid any other crap with this retard girl, I took a different spot far away from her. She was probably on something because after all that she came right up to my cousin and asked him for a cigarette. Which he didn't give her and laughed in her face :) I later on saw her arguing with some dude and she walked away from him. I turned around and told him "that girl is rude". He completely agreed with me and said he's been trying to get her to change, that she has attitude, that she just goes off. Crazy girl.
