Marquee

So yeah I've been there. Hate to say it, but it's true. It was a friend's birthday party and I went. It sucked. I mean I had fun but it sucked. We did see Irulan and Trichelle from the Real World. Looks as if Irulan is a waitress there. Anyway besides getting elbowed in the head by an anorexic blonde girl the evening was alright. Since all the men there apparently have money to piss away we definitely got some free drinks. But what really takes the cake is some dude trying to give money to the bathroom attendant so his girlfriend scratch that, the girl he is trying to sleep with could cut in the bathroom line. Because at places like Marquee money matters more than even how you look. That explains why there were absolutely no attractive men in the entire building. There weren't even any nice men. Just rich men. Rich men who use their money to cover up the fact that they aren't remotely interesting or nice...or attractive. And I'm gonna be honest with you people I'll take a good looking poor boy over an ugly rich one any day of the week. Money isn't nearly as important to me as looks are. I have my own money I certainly don't need someone else's.

Anyway, the DJ was amazing but that will only get you so far when there is no one to dance with. And honestly how much dancing can you do with people pushing and shoving you all night. I guess they are all about making money and if dudes are lame enough to spend $300 on a bottle of vodka that normally costs $30 they might as well take advantage of them.

Perhaps it just isn't the place for me. It looked like there were tons of people there having fun. For example, if you are a white girl who likes black dudes that only like white girls, or a black dude who likes white girls who like black dudes who only like white girls, then this is your spot. Oh and if you are an Asian girl, cause everyone likes Asian girls. If you have pin straight blond hair but spend and hour straightening it everyday, then this is also a good place for you. If you have a high-paying job to mask your insecurities and like to buy girls who use you for your money expensive things, you would also probably have a really great time at this place. If you are arrogant, and completely uninteresting or wearing a shirt that says "Overworked and Underfucked" then this is also a place you might consider visiting.

While I was there I got hit on by some 22 year kid. Now I sort of see the reason there are 25 and up nights. I think they should have more of those. So, I found the perfect way to get rid of a dude without hurting anyone's feelings. No more will I say I have a boyfriend, or that I am too tired to dance, or that I don't feel like talking to anyone. You will never hear me mutter the words I hate dancing, I hate boys, can you leave me alone?, or even, I'm crazy you don't want to talk to me. Yes I've said it all. I suppose the one positive of going to Marquee was to learn the way to get a man to not only stop talking to you but to sprint off in the opposite direction. Ready? Its a doozy.

Try imagining this:
22 year old guy dancing behind me and being all annoying, Me, Looking annoyed and not dancing (ok this probably isn't too hard to imagine).
22 year old guy: Hey
Me: How old are you? You look young.
22 year old guy: 22
Me: you're too young for me.
22 year old guy: How old are you?
Me: 35
22 year old guy:What?!?
Me: 35
22 year old guy: TWENTY - Five?
Me: No. THIRTY - five.

He was gone quicker than I could say "tick tock...I'm so desperate I don't even want a relationship, I want your sperm!"

Well lesson learned. No Marquee for me. At least now I know what I am talking about when I tell people it's lame.
