The party was a costume party. The theme was “As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?” I brought out, my all purpose costume: my lab coat. But to spice things up, I brought and pen and notepad. I was both a scientist and a writer.
This party would contain several important lessons for me:
- Being original is always better than imitating someone else.
- AMOGing is isn’t as hard as I thought it was.
- Stay away from Everclear.
Like I had said earlier, I brought a notepad and paper with me. I would go around telling people I was a scientist and a writer and would write a haiku for them. The first haiku I wrote for this cute Asian girl (HBcallout) was actually from Fight Club. I got called on it by one of the guys (the boyfriend) in the first set I entered. I agreed with him and the conversation turned into a discussion of how awesome fight club was. After some more talking, I ejected (there were still more sets to open).
My next approach was a guy (we will call him Bob) I knew. I had crashed one of his parties earlier in the semester, but didn’t get a chance to talk to him much. Bob was very well-adjusted socially and an excellent natural who commands a tight-knit group of friends. I had only heard about his party because XIII had been invited to it. I was supposed to go somewhere else, but my friend canceled on me so I went with XIII instead. I gave him a haiku talking about how he was the leader of the pack. He said he was glad me met me and told me to add him on Facebook.
I about to move on to another set, but HBcallout had other ideas. Apparently, she was unhappy that I gave her a haiku I didn’t make up and told Bob that the haiku I had given him was fake. To make a long story short, the haiku I gave Bob was proved to be original to HBcallout’s satisfaction and I ended up writing her an original one about her calling me out. She thought it was funny and suddenly I was on her good side. I Facebook-closed her. I wanted to do more, but her boyfriend was with her.
The hostess of the party, who we will call Becky, was drunk when I got there. Like me, she sought to get even drunker. At the time this other girl and I were standing by the punch bowl and Becky asked us if the punch needed more alcohol. Both of us agreed it did so Becky grabbed a bottle of Everclear and dumped some into the punch.
This is when I made my second mistake of the night. I asked Becky to pour some of the Everclear directly into the punch in my glass. The result was some of the strongest punch I ever had. I drank it all, knowing full well how by body reacted too much Everclear. I knew I was on a timer. Eventually it would hit me and my game would take a plunge, but perform better under pressure.
Not wanting to waste any time, I went outside and entered a 3set with two beautiful blondes and one dude. One of the blondes, a HB8, told me I could ask her three questions. It sounded fun so I decided to play along. The guy, however, was not amused and kept trying to AMOG me.
Me: [I can’t remember the first question]
Guy: That was a lame question.
HB8: [I can’t remember her answer]
Me: What is you purpose in life?
Guy: That was better than you last question.
HB8: That IS a good question. [She answers it. Once again, I do not remember her answer.]
[I had only one question left and I realized the first tow questions were interview questions. I needed to change things up. With only one question left, I decided to get wild.]
Me [I give her a sly look]: Are you a good kisser?
[And this is where things got interesting. The guy took exception and he switched from plain ball-busting to straight up AMOGing.]
Guy: You can’t ask that question.
Me: That’s up to her.
Guy: The answer is “she’s not kissing you.”
Me: I’m asking her, not you.
[Keep in mind, my body is facing toward HB8 and I’m only briefly turning my head toward the guy to answer him, and then I quickly turn back to HB8.]
HB8: I am my own person. I will answer his question myself.
Me: So anyway, are you a good kisser?
HB8: [Something like “I don’t know” or “maybe”]
Me: Let’s find out.
Guy: Hey now!
HB8: I can make my own decisions… [Reality catches up with her.] …but I can’t kiss you here.
Guy: That’s three questions!
Me: But I get a bonus one. Will you move over there with me for a little bit? [I point to an isolated location a few yards away]
HB8: I will only go if my sister comes with me.
[Suddenly the second blonde, also HB8 (She would be an HB7, but the glasses gave her an extra point)]
Me: Well?
Sister: I don’t want to go over there.
Me: That’s fine.
HB8 leaves to get a drink. I stay and talk to the guy and the sister. I write the sister a haiku about how hot her glasses make her look and how her “boyfriend” (the guy in the set) was glaring at me. She thought it funny. I found out that the guy wasn’t her boyfriend, but the boyfriend of HB8.
I eventually ejected and went back inside. This where I met HBengaged. (I wouldn’t figure out she was engaged until AFTER I added her on Facebook the next morning.) She was a beautiful (fake) redhead, and she had the kind of beauty that I knew wouldn’t fade when I sobered up. She was easily an 8.5.
By this point, the Everclear had hit me so my world became a series of images. I have no memory of what I said to her, but I do know I eventually started touching her face. I usually do this when I’m about to kiss a girl. If she lets me touch her face, I know she’s down for a kiss. I go for it. Multiple kiss-closes and a number-close.
After awhile I decided to leave that party. I was getting tired and the Everclear was preventing me from socializing properly. Besides, after all I had accomplished, I figured it would be time to call it night. I woke up messed up from last night and had a killer headache a couple of hours later. No more Everclear for me.
Totals:
- One kiss the cheek from a random girl and several on the lips from HBengaged.
- One successful counter-AMOGing
- One girl playing with my balls while her friends watched.
