...Really Though?

So today we're going to review some of the fuckery that I experienced this weekend. The following list is in no particular order.

1. Service at SEA in the Meatpacking District: HORRIBLE! This was my second time eating at this venue and I've decided that this will also be my last time eating at there. Apparently, aside from being a restaurant they now have converted their previous upstairs seating into a lounge called the "Moon Room" or something uncreative like that. Consequently diners are packed like sardines on the first floor. The website says they only take reservations for parties of 6 or more therefore my friend and I did not make reservations. FAIL! We must have had the worst seats in that restaurant. We were crammed between two mini tables in between two couples and right next to a huge table of obnoxious loud diners (don't worry that experience is next on this list). It was horrible and to make matters worse as soon as we sat down the waiter came to take our order - BEFORE we even had an opportunity to look at the menu. Fast-forward to me ordering a mojito: the drink came and it looked like pure mint leaves and ice. I couldn't even enjoy drinking it because I was getting a mouthful of mint with every sip so I kindly beckoned to our waiter (who had not checked on us since the moment our food was dropped off) and told him that I was not enjoying this drink and I would like to have a caipirinha instead. This man looked at me like I had 5 heads and had just cursed him out in Thai. Needless to say I repeated my request a bit slower and he took my drink. Ten minutes later a caipirinha was literally thrown down on our table. We weren't even offered a dessert menu - he just gave us the cheque and walked away. Douche!
2. Obnoxious Diners: This. Is. A. No. No. Everyone needs to learn proper dining etiquette and that includes NOT laughing like a donkey on crack at every word the other people at your table relay to you. This woman must have had a dose of laughing gas in whatever concoction she was drinking because she was literally laughing the entire night. And not even one of those cute dainty laughs. She sounded like a damn hyena. BITCH! Nothing...trust me...nothing is that funny for that   long. The entire restaurant was glaring at her. It was amazing how quiet the restaurant became after that entire group of way too many left. So I say all that to say this: Be respectful of fellow diners, I don't want to hear your conversations about whether or not Beyonce is really pregnant and I do not want to know whether or not Bonquiqui is still dating Tyrone. Thank you kindly.
3. Macho Man Drivers: If you can't handle a woman cutting you off on the highway or refusing to let you into a lane (when you haven't even indicated) - quit driving like a little bitch! Some men need to realize that there are some pretty decent/above decent women drivers out there who are not intimidated by the someone glaring into their vehicle. Sir...I will glare right back.
4. LIRR Fares: LIRR I love your convenience but seriously $8.75 on peak from Jamaica to Penn Station is RIDICULOUS. 
5. Black Female Employee at Applebees: I'm not sure how this happened but it probably all could have been avoided if your attitude was not turned all the way up. When someone says they're making reservations for a party of SEVEN and two from that party will be waiting at the bar for the other FIVE to arrive that does not mean that you write down party of two on your little sheet of paper. That doesn't even make any sense!! So next time instead of rushing people away for no reason take the time to listen, it'll make your job a bit easier idiot. 
6. NYC Cabbies: It is ILLEGAL to drive pass a possible customer because their complexion is the same color as yours or darker! Yes Mr. Cabbie you saw myself and my friend and you clearly shook your head no when we attempted to hail you and then proceeded to stop at the next corner and pick up a group of white people. HOW IN THE WORLD DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?? You can't even rationalize an action like that. It's 2011 our President is Black. Stop with this petty mess and pick up fares! 

That's all I have for now. And crazy enough this was all over the span of a measly weekend. Exhausting.
