Happens to me all the fucking time.

Yeah, me too. ALLTHE TIME.
Won't you people just let me be? PRIVACY dammit.
It's not my fault I'm so wonderful.

How exactly did this ruin your date? Guess it sucks that the spotlight was off you for 10 seconds.

just yesterday night coming back from my paper delivery boy job this chick came to me and asked me: arent you the guy who always is at 7:39 waiting for the trimet at so and so and I was like wwwooww yes i am, then she went like hump, and I was like yeah yeah, and then she just kinda looked down and left. Just yesterday, I aint shitting you.

Your life is a Fernando Arrabal play, Leaky. Minus the entrails, I hope.

I have no idea what your talking about Todd...I just write what I see.

So who is this so-called "famous" guy you were on the date with?

I'm still trying to figure out why this date was 'ruined' because her date was recognized and spoken to for a bit.
Maked no sense whatsoever.
Besides, he could have easily backed out of the conversation quickly if he wanted.
Maybe he didn't want to for whatever reason.

Whoa, Anon; codepedent jealousy issues much?

OH NO!!! SOMEONE SHOWED APPRECIATION FOR SOMEONE'S WORK AND ART! BETTER MURDERIZE THEM FOR BEING APPRECIATIVE!!!

I can understand where Anon is coming from. I've been in similar situations and the truth is- in those situations it was my own damn fault for sitting back and playing the victim. I had every opportunity to join in the conversation. If I were Anon and I were adamant about them interrupting our dinner then I could have thanked them and asked them to leave; they would have understood. There is nothing worse than sitting back and doing nothing...

Taking a role in this imaginary situation that is this Anon, I would have thanked them for them to have comed and talked to me this way placing them up the social scale only if for a brief seconds, thanked them for receiving my words, thus making them leave with if not, with a brief encounter with a superior being, and about my famous dinner partner, hey, who do you think I am, I always role with very famous people who cant be bothered by a hello and a simple recognition or fan encouragement. Always ruins all of my nights and my trips to the mall.

Or woulda have said sorry dude were busy and smiled.

The stars I role with are the local bowling winning team ("not recognized by the federation of bowlers") in case you were wondering. High profile, Hollywood hills aint got nothing on me. On top of the world mamma.

Oh f'ing waaaaah! Sweet Jesus! You met a boy that you liked and had a good time..then you found out this boy has made somebody happy with his art. These are good things! Stop whining and enjoy your life. You are gonna die one day..

Some people think that being a fan of someone's work means they are entitled to extract a piece of the artist's attention. Plus it's a desire to get close to that person, we've all experienced it (anyone who appreciates performance or talent). Fan Mark David Chapman shot Lennon because Chapman wanted the ultimate connection--death. Fandom is an interesting psychological phenomenon. Causes some people to behave in ways they wouldn't otherwise toward people.
