laughing in the toilets of a gay bar
I’m actually drunk and this is my second try to write this as I accidentally closed the previous window I was writing in.
Tonight I went out with my friend Dave who I hadn’t seen in a week and we drunk a little. Well we both hadn’t drunk in a while so 2 bottles of wine went straight to our heads. I hadn’t been to gay venue in a while and we decided to go to Charles St. It’s a place I used to go to a lot a few months back. Not that I don’t like it any more, it’s just that now I don’t go out as often and usually go to different places to try them out. Like yesterday when I went to the Sky Bar (previously known as Leo’s Lounge - possibly the tackiest bar in Brighton but still nice). It was nice in there tonight, a very different crowd and most of them I had never seen before but there were a couple that I really wanted to see again.
Back to the point. I saw the funniest thing while in the toilets which made me literally laugh out loud. No, not something naughty. They have put hair straighteners in there! Yes, you put a pound coin in and you can stand there, in front of the mirror and straighten your hair. You know in case of a hair emergency, like when your hair goes *phoomp* “look, I’m an afro!”, or you decide to change the way you did your hair before you left the house (that’s for when you are sober enough to actually still see it in the mirror), or for after a catfight, or for when your inner hair dresser takes over. Well in that last case it would probably be to just burn people*.

*Is there a reason why hairdressers can’t use hair straighteners on you without burning you? Like when I went to the hairdresser’s on Thursday the guy asked me, “how do you usually have it”. So I told him I usually straighten it now that it is so long to make it easier to manage and he said okay. I didn’t know the right answer was “well done”! He burned me 3 times! Surely he must be better than me with them but this proves otherwise. Even I who am completely useless with hair straighteners have only burned myself once.

Getfit said:I love it, what a great find, not sure how profitable hair straighteners are in toilets though. You better not be too drunk when you use them might grab the dam thing the wrong way… Health and safety approved? Oh how well do you know your hair dresser? 3 times hugh…
