A Gentleman Is Presentable
June 23rd, 2008When a gentleman is asked to accompany his lady-friend on a social mixing weekend, he makes sure he is on his best behavior. From his manners and etiquette to his physical presentation and conversation skills, everything is impeccable. When asked to join the men folk for a round of 18, a gentleman replies, “I’d be delighted.” When offered a cocktail, a gentleman gracefully accepts. So flawless are a gentleman’s social skills, that even if his lady-friend should momentarily abandon him, leaving him adrift amongst a sea of unfamiliar faces, a gentleman will quickly take the wheel of his proverbial ship, engaging in witty banter with his fellow humanoids as if they’d all been old chums, thus swiftly and fully winning over the now enamored crowd.
CountryClubber: dude I had a bad weekend
UnwantedGuest: yeah?
CountryClubber: got really drunk at an event with Liz’s section at business school
CountryClubber: and I guess made a complete ass of myself
UnwantedGuest: hahah
UnwantedGuest: what went down?
CountryClubber: we were in martha’s vineyard
CountryClubber: I went golfing with these guys
CountryClubber: drank all day
CountryClubber: then they went back to their hotels to eat, nap and shower
CountryClubber: but I forgot where my hotel was at this point, so I ended up at an open bar party and kept drinking
CountryClubber: but that didn’t stop me from talking to everyone
CountryClubber: drinking-wise, no one was at my level
UnwantedGuest: naturally
CountryClubber: i was still in my golf clothes and there was mud all over my legs cause it had been raining
UnwantedGuest: hahaha
CountryClubber: by the time Liz arrived I was not on best behavior
CountryClubber: I mean we are talking me just being a jerk
UnwantedGuest: how so?
CountryClubber: I was drinking straight vodka
CountryClubber: using the woman’s bathroom and screaming while inside
CountryClubber: one of her classmates is named steve
CountryClubber: and they call him serious steve
CountryClubber: and so I kept getting in his face being like why so serious steve? chill out steve
CountryClubber: he wasn’t happy
CountryClubber: Then someone comes up to our group and says it smells
CountryClubber: and I guess I look at him and go, “well I just shit my pants”
UnwantedGuest: wow, it just keeps getting better
