If you want to strike up a conversation...

...then think of something intelligent to talk about. PLEASE! ...Every Tom, Dick and Harry feels the need to inquire about me and my life... I'm over talking about me and honestly it's none of your business considering that we just met... If you REALLY want to know about me then keep coming back. Regulars have the right to learn about the personal details... Not the new guy... In the meantime lets talk about movies, books, politics, art, the particle collider, North Korea and their 4th of July plans, Ren & Stimpy... You get my point...

Seriously...

Don't ask me if I'm an actress. I know we live in LA but this question is getting really old...

Don't ask me what I do on my free time

Don't ask me where I live (yes, a guy asked me this tonight!)

Don't ask me how my boyfriend feels about me being a bartender (this is the LAMEST attempt to find out if I am single or not)

Don't try to talk yourself up in any way, shape or form. Just BE! ...Last night a guy made it an obvious point to mention that he was a doctor. I guess he assumed that I didn't hear him since I never inquired as to what kind of doctor he was. So, upon signing out his tab he left a note which read, "If you're single and want to date a really annoying doctor then please call or text me @ 310-495-5412..." 1.) I heard you the first time 2.) I still could care less... 3.) Texting is going to be the death of relationships. Do you really want to start off that way!? ...Mind you, at the same time the waitress is being talked up by some dude who's rambling on about his porshe, ferrari, etc... Bottom line is, if you use external things to win girls over then you most likely have nothing to offer that I'd be interested in...

People, just be real... If you have nothing interesting in your noggin that you are truly interested in conversing about then zip it until you do... Don't desperatly reach for something to fill the space. It's brain numbing and makes me want to find a glass to clean on the other side of the bar...

P.s. The doctors number found a home in the trash... However, I do recommend that you call the number above for a good laugh...
