In Case You Also Missed It, And You Also Probably Missed It
So, after the show last night everyone moved over to the bar for a drink. After maybe an hour or so, these four girls showed up looking a bit out of place, like “this-is-my-favorite-dress-who-are-these-slobs-it’s-not-tuesday-it’s-saturday” out of place. One of them was really frantic in her denim mini-skirt, like…crazed? Like yelling “HEY EVERYBODY, LISTEN!” all the time? To a room of strangers? There was a microphone in a corner of the room and she tried to get the microphone to work but it wouldn’t so she would yell again and then finally got the bartender to come over and turn the microphone on? At which point I’m just thinking “oh, fuuuuuuuck” because I know for a fact that I will not care what it is that this girl has to say, and that she feels she needs a microphone to say it is a very bad sign.
“Everybody, there are two special occasions we are celebrating tonight. First, we have birthday girl Sarah Shields in the house. WOOOOOO! Second of all, we need you all to be quiet because we have two of the stars of The Agency with us tonight, and the show is starting right now!”
Um.
First of all, if I was on a second-tier VH1 show and I wanted to have a viewing party, I would BRING MORE THAN THREE PEOPLE with me. Moreover, I would not act all offended and confused that a bunch of people who were minding their own business don’t give a shit about a show that is like a cross between America’s Next Top Model and eye cancer. My opinions, which I feel are God-given, were not shared by the waitress, who blasted the TV’s audio and kicked us all out of the bar. It was actually a little heartbreaking when microphone girl was like “No, we want you guys to stay, we just want you to be excited about the show with us,” and it was like “don’t you see that WE CAN’T?”
My only solace from this basic cable Abu Grhaib was as I closed my tab and the show went to commercial I yelled “YOU GUYS, SHUT UP, MY PIER-1 COMMERCIAL IS ON.”

1. I was there and this is funnier than actually being there was.
2. It literally was 3 people. 3 people kicked 40 people out of a bar so they could watch tv.

My thoughts exactly. The worst thing about The Agency is when you’re just casually sitting and watching and then suddenly your balls get electrocuted.

Wasn’t The Agency that show on CBS that got cancelled 6 years ago?

This shit has nothing on “The Asiancy,” the new Bravo reality series where FOBs from China, Korea, and Vietnam struggle to adapt to the wacky ways of American life.

A denim mini-skirt? I hope she had nice legs at least…

That’s when you make something up and yell “Holy shit, I think Iran just dropped nukes on Canada, quick put on the news!” and laugh when they miss a good ten minutes of their show because they were trying to remember what channel CNN is.

What bar was this at? One that should know better and that I should avoid, or one that happened to be convenient and should be categorically avoided?
