Munkeefood, Part 4: Solitude

Hey Folks, what’s up? I’m in navel gaze again, trying to figure myself out. I often complain about the lack of social outlets here in Satan’s Anus, but really I’m kind of misrepresenting myself. You see, I’m not a social cat at all. I’m quite the opposite.

I’m the guy at the end of the bar, solo. Though I’m in a couple of fraternal organizations, I don’t particularly care for the company of that many other people. People tend to talk more than they listen, which upsets me to no end. It’s O.K. to shut the fuck up once in a while. For real.

I love my frat. My frat brothers? Some of them. Sometimes. In a fraternal situation, you’ll interact with cats you might not ever kick it with in life under normal circumstances. Sometimes that’s cool. Other times, not so much. Arrogance, abrasiveness, all around assholery abound. I’m the “Dip” King. As soon as everyone is having a good ol’ time, I’m out. I quietly slip away, everytime.

I don’t go to the movies more than twice a year. The communal experience of sitting in a theatre with a bunch of apolite jackasses doesn’t move me. Hollywood hasn’t put out a compelling enough story for me to go sit in a full movie theatre more than a couple of times a year. The only time I go is when I’m extremely bored or on a date, which brings me to my next observation.

I love going out alone. It is an awesome experience. I already, as I’ve stated before, don’t talk a lot. So I love to sit in bars and people watch. The longer I sit alone, the more likely I’ll have multiple women hit on me, especially if they arrive in a group. I don’t know what it is, but I get more phone numbers when I sit and drink than if I’m actively trying to pull. I don’t understand it, but it’s the one situation where my anti-social behavior benefits me.

Once dating begins, it’s another story. I’ll see you when I see you. Most of the time, you won’t see me or hear from me, even if I like you. Why? Because you’ll want to be around me. And talk. A lot.

It’s not that I hate people. I hate dumb people. And I’m outnumbered and shit, like Socrates Fortlow. I’m sure we could hang, fellow bloggers. We can go out for drinks. And at the height of the evening, look around. I’ll probably be gone by then.

Stay Tight,
KZ
