That very reason is why everyone who is shy stays shy, and exactly why i never try ot be cool. Im simply not, and any attempt otherwise makes me look like a bigger dork than i am.


This is a pretty crappy one. When i was 21, i was at a bar with a freind who was 4 years older. we were sitting at the bar when this rather attractive woman sat next to me and just started bullshitting. Turns out she was 28. I felt about 10 feet tall.

After baout a half hour of good conversation, my friend decides to introduce himself. Now, i had been talking more than drinking, so i was more or less sober. my friend wasnt. he began telling her that she looked like jean Triplehorn and how beatiful a woman she was, so by default blah blah blah. God knows women like being compared to actresses and models loudly in public places by drunk guys....


Needless to say, the rest of our conversation ended in less than 5 minutes with her saying she would "see me around", without having given me a phone number. I was mortified and more than a little pissed. at that point, i had been single for 3 years.

i got him back though. later that week we were in a grocery store, and he was trying to hit on the little pixie ringing us out. I was looking at the impulse buy candy when i saw the Baby Ruths.

I grabbed his shoulder hwile he was hitting on her, and in my best Sloth voice pointed and said "Jay! Look, Bay-BEE-ruth!!Bay-BEE-ruth!!"

He turned bright red, clammed up, and sulked all the way out to the car. I almost didnt make it i was laughing so hard. The look that girl gave him couldnt have been worse if he had had a bowel movement coming out of his nose. :D:D:D
