This isn't a movie

You cannot just come up and say "I want a beer" and immediately have a full mug of your favorite lager.  Getting in bar fights is not a fun, well choreographed event that has the perfect country song playing in the background.  The attractive person behind the bar isn't your soul mate who is flattered that you're hitting on them; that's the bartender, you idiot.  I've seen lazy eyed fat broads with missing teeth get hit on just because they were surrounded by bottles of booze and could make a good Long Island Tea.  You're not the first or last to think "That bartender is pretty cute.  See how nice she's been to me?  I think she likes me."  You are  not the only person in the bar that wants to talk to the staff.  Everyone does.  Everyone has a story, or a problem, or a line, or a drink order.  We don't have time to listen to your life story.  Honestly, it's not that interesting anyway.  And it keeps you from drinking and/or tabbing out, which is the two most important things you can do in a bar. 

Stop watching movies and thinking that's your real life.  Watch 16 and Pregnant if you want to see your real life.
