...well, The Whatacunt!
What. A. Saturday (night, dance, they love the way Xym moves. Stylish gothboy).
First of all, I had to meet my Local Sister #2 for pre-Whatacunt drinkies, as the other lot were all invited to some bash at The Playhouse and we weren't, coz we're not popular. Boo.
Anyhoo, we went to the alleged "Alternative" pub known as The Marquee... or, as currently known, The Pub With No Beer.
6 weeks ago we went there - maybe 10 other patrons. Low stock,many pumps off, but managed to get something to drink.
4 weeks ago we went there - 8 other patrons. Lower stock, more pumps off, run out of my usual, but managed to get something to drink.
2 weeks ago we went there - 6 other visitors. Even lower stock, even more pumps with glasses over handles, run out of both usual drinks, but managed to get something to drink.
Last night - only 2 other people in. Almost no stock at all. A couple of cans in the fridge. Virtually all pumps glassed. Everything Xym drinks not in stock.
So we fecked off to The Steam Packet, which always has a fully stocked bar.
Then we got bored waiting for the others, so we hit Da Club.
Where The Xym proved to be somewhat popular, with many an anecdotal accolade. Words being filtered unto Xym via one's compatriots is that the whispered word is Stylish. And lo, even blind Xym is also aware of many eyes upon him!
Walkabout - holy heck! High Five central! Cool outfit Bro! Whoa - cool hat! What a 'tashe!
Pop downstairs to check out Meltdown - "Excuse me, but can we has a picture with you - with think you're so stylish!". Blimey - people have never been happier!
Pop back upstairs, and James's Laid is on... and what's this, a lovely little bespectacled Pretty has come over to dance with Xym? Oh my!
But wait - social moment. Off to the smoking area for a chat... and what's this, a lovely little blonde Pretty in a Xym suit matching skirt stops for a chat!
Go Xym!
"So, Xym - did you get their numbers then?"
Oh, now, come on! This is Xym we're talking about here! As if he'd dare speak to Pretties! But we are making progress! Xym didn't exactly flee from the dancing babe, and did have a bit of a speak with a Pretty!
And for Xym, that's virtually unheard of! Are we breaking down his shyness, and overcoming his social phobia? Is mah Essix Sista having an effect on opening Xym up? Could we be on the verge of seeing Xym actually chatting up a Pretty or noticing a Pretty "Taking An Interest" and following up on it?
Well, no. Clearly not. Obviously. But we're getting there...
