Saturday I went to the largely uneventful UGA/BFE game. It was the Mexican's birthday, and a couple guys took him over to Athens to celebrate. It was an early afternoon game, which left little time to get hammered before the game. But we tried. Our seats are directly in front of the cheerleaders, and, just before halftime, its where the dance line girls line up for the half time show.

One spotted me with my new camera, and I waved, and she waived, and I took pictures, and she smiled. She then got her whole team to smile and wave, and she was very excited I was taking her picture.

Me: (In loud voice, 7 rows back) "Hi, smile...thats good, now wave, now everybody...ok, good...thats going to be awesome"
They are happy to have a fan, and truely seem to be enjoying the picture taking.

Me: (In equally loud voice) "Now, everyone all at once....show me your tits"
The danceline girls just kind of didnt know what to do, and walked awkardly away from the hedges back towards the sidelines. Meanwhile the stands erupted with laughter, and guys were high fiving me. It was exactly what I intended to happen.

I often find myself saying and writing things simply to get a reaction. I get bored easily. When I get bored, especially when alchohol is involved, you can be assured that to entertain myself I will see what kind of shit i can stir up. The thing is, with my new camera (a decenly high end Cannon that girls seem to think is a professional camera), girls actually do what I ask, even when I am just fucking with them. My new favorite is, "ok, lets get a picture of you two." "Oh, yeah, thats going to be a great one....Now kiss each other" You would fall over if I told you how many shrug and start making out at my direction. Sure, a few say, "we dont really do that," but not many.

The point of all this, is that you will be surprised what happens if you simply ask for it. 90% of it is asking with a tone that you expect it to occur. I would get nowhere if I came across as saying this crap with a wink, or with the tone that it was more of a question than a direction. "Will you girls kiss now?" aint gonna work nearly like "Now Kiss." I dont know why, it just doesnt.

I have tried to tell all this to my redneck friend we shall call Buck. Buck always talks such a huge game about all the girls he goes out with, or that he has coming over to his apartment. I always ask, "Did you see her nekkid?" which he always replies, "No," followed by somelame excuse. I follow up with "Did you ask" which, again, always gets a no.

I guess the social filter that keeps most people within the bounds of normal society doesnt mesh right in my head. Whereas most people would rather not risk entering into a situation where the other person is offended or "might not like you," I seem to seek those stiuations out. The funny thing is, very very few people are actually offended. Hell, I bet a few of those danceline girls would have actually done it if there had not been 90 thousand people around. So, again, the point is, dont hesitate to ask.
