last night, i met up with some friends at the bungalow in chantilly. first, i want to mention that their website is probably one of the most horrendous pieces of steaming crap i’ve ever seen. autoplaying music with no apparent “off” switch? that’s like one of the seven deadly sins of web design, assholes. anyway, i began my trip towards the most worthless bar of all time.
upon first glance, it looked pretty decent inside. they had a short mexican doorman who didn’t intimidate me in the slightest. there were a few pool tables, which were all occupied. i managed to find my friends after smashing through a wall of douchebags filling the entire bar area. i wish this were the worst part.
i asked my buddies what they wanted to drink and geniunely planned on buying a round or two. if only it were as easy as it sounds. i sat at the bar, waving and trying to get the attention of either of the mere two bartenders scrambling to line their pockets with tip money. apparently they didn’t want my money, because neither of them even stopped for me. the female bartender did not acknowledge my very existence for at least 20 minutes, so i tried the male bartender. as he walked by, i yelled, “hey, can i order something?”
he looked at me in the eye, and proceeded to turn around and make someone else’s drinks. the end.
i probably wasted over an hour just hanging out, patiently waiting to be served. i’m typically a fairly patient dude, so i wasn’t stressin’ it. we bounced to my friend’s house where there was plenty of beer that i didn’t have to wait an hour for some jackass to NOT give me.
dear the bungalow,
go to hell.
love, kevin.

just thinking about this gets me steaming mad. I can’t STAND when bartenders do this. I used to work in a bar, no excuse!
this place sucks. i’m impressed you made it up to the bar. i didn’t even get that far.
i particularly enjoy the note to the bar at the end. well played.
1) Do NOT underestimate tiny Mexican guys… or tiny guys of any race, color, creed or nationality. Or this might happen:

2) I couldn’t agree more with you on the mandatory music. How fucking dumb do they think we are?
3) The only thing worse is NBC10.com where they have some fucking add of a woman pop up and walk around my screen. She is hot but loud.
4) Herbal Essences commercials still remind my parents of porn, and I have to turn them down when they come on so my old man doesn’t think I’m cranking it. I may write a blog about this.
5) Why the FUCK didn’t you call me for this bar outing?
