The Time I Bought
Girl Scout Cookies
5/25/08 - About three years ago I was living in a house in Pleasant Hill with my
brother (co-author of
Men Like Bars and the fart champion) and a friend whom I
will call the
Mexican.  This house can best be described as a shit hole man pad.  
I imagine most man pads are shit holes, but when you say “man pad” you think of
some Hollywood version where the carpets are clean, there is a stripper pole in
the living room, and the kitchen is as clean as the sluts the actor has sex with.

Our place was nothing like this of course.  We had bought the place to fix it up
and sell it.  The coffee table was just as likely to have fast food wrappers, as it
was a power tool, nails, a spitter, and a half-eaten donut.  There were two
couches in the living room and another by the kitchen, all with urine stained
cushions that had been flipped over multiple times.

It was on a random Saturday night that a married friend from down the street,
Evan, and some high school buddies came over.  This group and myself
proceeded to get shit-faced.  I blacked out, but I am told at some point my buddy
Mike mentioned he liked Genova sandwiches (pronounced Jen-a-wa).  I agreed,
and since I like to chant a mantra when I get really drunk, I spent the rest of the
night singing/chanting: “Jeeeenaaaaaawaaaaaaaaa,
jeeeeeenaaaaaawaaaaaa, jeeeeennnnaaaaawaaaaa!”  

Apparently everyone picked up on this and merely had to ask me a simple
question like: “Who makes your favorite sandwiches?” Which would set me off
on another 5 minute chant of jeeeeeennnnaaaaaawaaaaaaaa.

This is strange for regular people, but even more so for me because I know the
best sandwich is the hot pastrami at Togos.  I guess “Toooooogoooooos!”
wasn't has fun to chant as Genova.

Sunday morning I woke up with a pretty good hangover. I did the usually
hangover routine: took a piss, drank some water, and took some ibuprofen.  I
always wash my hands after pissing, but I guess I never bothered to look in the
mirror (this is important for later).  Mirrors are for chicks and metrosexuals.

Mike was sleeping on one of the couches, and after hanging out for a little while,
he asked for a ride home.  I gave him one, but at no point did he look at me and
laugh.  

After dropping Mike off, I decided to go to Albertson’s and get some hangover
medicine.  As I walked in, I passed a Milf. I looked at her once; she met my look
and smiled. I looked away, wondering if she really was smiling at me. I looked
back and she gave me another smile.  I got a burst of confidence.  Was I really
that good looking that this Milf was checking me out?

I grabbed some Gatorade and made my way to the chip isle with a little more
spring in my step.  Along the way I walked by a good-looking girl about my age.  
We made eye contact and she smiled.  I even looked back after we walked
passed each other, and she was looking back at me with a big smile on her face.

I began to wonder, was I really better looking than I thought I was?  Perhaps
chicks really liked buff guys that were 5’6” and had the voice of a duck.

I bought the Gatorade and Funjons and got a slightly weird look from the
checkout girl. The checkout girl was a little heavy, so I merely dismissed the
look:
whatever you load, you might not dig me but two hot chicks were
checking me out earlier.


As I exited the store, I was in a great mood, basking in my newfound knowledge
that good-looking broads cannot take their eyes off me.  Being in a good mood
and feeling especially thankful to the feminine gender, I stopped to buy some
cookies from the Girl Scouts that were selling them outside Albertsons.  As I
bought a couple boxes of mint chocolate cookies, the two Girl Scouts looked at
me like they were scared of me.  In addition, the mom looked at me like I was a
freak.  Again, I dismissed their looks:
You may think my disheveled
appearance is unattractive, but some women, especially hot ones, find this
look irresistible
.

As I got back in the car, I adjusted my rear view mirror a little, and caught a
glimpse of myself.  Have you ever had a moment where you had no idea why
something happened, then suddenly figured out why?  I have, it was the moment
I looked in my rearview mirror and saw that my friends had drew penises all over
my face.

There was a long penis across my forehead, one on each side of my cheek
leading straight to my mouth, and another penis artistically drawn on my chin.

In short, there is no way anybody could look at me and not see that there were
penises on my face.  Once I realized what my friends had done, and what I had
done with these peni all over my face, I was mad.  Five seconds later, I thought it
was pretty funny.  By the time I called my buddy Mike and told him what I had just
done, I thought it was great.

Think about it, after war-painting your friend, can you think of any better result
than him not noticing it and going out in public and buying Girl Scout cookies.
