breaking the social contract
This has been bugging me lately, so I'm going to do something really girly, I'm going to blog about something that happened with a girl.
About a month ago I met someone on the F train, and asked her out for a drink. Fair enough, right?
She agreed and at the appointed time we met, and ordered a gin an tonic and she ordered...nothing!
Now, had she said that she didn't drink or whatever beforehand, or would prefer to meet for a cup of coffee, or really anything else, that would have been ok, but she agreed to meet for a drink, and it just seems like an jerky thing to do, not having one. More to the point, eating and drinking, breaking bread and cracking open a bottle of wine are the things that hold our society together. It's a violation of the social contract when you sit down at the bar for a drink, and don't even order a glass of wine to sip, or even waste.
And it pisses me off.

And that goes to show that you should never go home with someone you meet in the subway.
But, but Tim!
