Weirdness.

Sep 01, 2006 22:21

Tonight is a very strange night.

I went to Unblurred, and it was just ... odd. First, I saw this guy. Many of you know that Rob looks an awful lot like this guy, Mike Johnsen, that I went to high school with. I think I saw Mike Johnsen tonight, but it really could've been Rob. And how sad is it that apparently even I can't tell the difference ( Read more... )

If he was standing in or in front of ON, that was Michael Johnsen.

The new space is actually a nice place. I was there for a good bit of the evening, and somehow ended up serving drinks @ the bar. Try it again some time. Don't know about the other people, but the owners are really nice. I'm actually having a visual art show there in January.

And that's so weird: all day today I had the phrase, "jew 'em down" running through my head. Not for any reason, just because it was in my head and I don't know why. Thank G-d I don't have Turret's Syndrome like "Mike."

And, just love for the rest of the topics. xo.

Wow, I'm sorry I missed you.

Yes, he was standing in front of ON, and yes, I thought it was probably Michael Johnsen, but I was so struck by the fact that I wasn't sure that I walked past him a good four or five times trying to decide. Ultimately, I think I settled on "I don't think Rob has a backpack like that, so it must be Michael Johnsen."

And the great irony about Mike "Jew 'em down" is that while he stood there and kept talking (to me, a Jew), he ended up going on about our mutual friend Adam (also a Jew), who is apparently one of his best friends. And all I could think was "Dude, you are seriously fucking crazy." He really is, actually. I mean, no fooling, there's something seriously wrong with that guy.

Maybe Mike was taking liberties with your friendly relationship. Some of the harshest comments I've gotten have come from "friendly fire," from folks who think because they know me they can take more liberties. You know I don't mean it because we're friends. I don't know, doll. Comedy is certainly subjective.

I doubt it. We were never anything I'd qualify as "friends"; merely "friendly acquaintances." It's like, I don't know you very well, right? So imagine that I came up to you last night and said something about "Chinks" or "Spics" -- wouldn't you think that I was insane? I know I would.
