Karaoke night is fun at first...

...but after about 11:00 or so, the people I'm with become indistinguishable from the rest of the mob of drunken idiots. Not that they have any choice.. When there's 3000 watts of a song that hundreds of people are singing along to, there's no chance for conversation. One must resign to screeching "WOOOOOOOOOO!" or something like that.

Would that I were better at nonverbal stuffs, so that I could coninue to interact with people on a personal basis, but eventually it gets stifling. I feel like I'm missing what everyone else seems to have.

ergh...

True. And the cigarette smoke becomes a living thing then and forces itself into non-smokers' lungs.

You could take a book and read it in the bar. You'd probably get your share of 'why/what are you reading?'s, but this kind of people tends to bore quickly and they'll leave you alone.

It's karaoke night. They're too busy mob-singing to give a rat's ass about a reader.

One needs earplugs just to hear the songs without distortion, so I doubt it's the best reading environment.

Coffeehouses are better for that.

The captions had no tilde on the ñ! barbarians, I say!

And they went through the same karaoke-standard list as last week. You were there for One Way or Another and Hit Me With Your Best Shot, just like last week. And after you left, they played Delilah, Footloose, the Pussy Song... it was like a rerun.

Why I didn't leave with you, Vyus or Cynica, I'll never know.

I usually unjar those songs with Journey.

ANY WAY YOU WANT IT, THAT'S THE WAY YOU NEED IT, ANY WAY YOU WANT IT, intro riff 1a.
