15 Minute Friends

I've been doing this Uber thing for a few weeks and it's fascinating. Truly fascination, like sitting in a sports bar by yourself. In a sports bar you can hear people talk about things they think are bad-ass. I just heard this guy tell his friend about AC/DC's lead singer problems and getting tickets to Tesla after 20 years of procrastination. He was deep and passionate about it. This guy truly enjoyed his conversation and I enjoyed not being distracted, which gave me the capacity to eavesdrop appropriately. The two hot chics across the bar from me really enjoyed trying to convince the barkeep that it was happy hour. They enjoyed it even though it was apparent that they ran the same routine for at least the past 30 years. Maybe they were sisters that grew up in the 70's. They were drinking beer straight from the bottle. It was Ultra though. I guess that means they they are down to earth but still have to maintain a figure. Mall walkers. They enjoyed it. This particular sports bar always has a guy in a sports jersey and a guy in a cowboy hat. Always at the bar but never in the same group.

The setting is interesting, but not fascinating. It's loud, commotion everywhere, they're laughing and drinking, and there are no less that 50  people within earshot.

Inside of your car is private. It's secluded and quaint. It's dark and reserved, it's different every time. That's why it is really interesting, intriguing.

Where you are
the bad part of town
the good part of town
the bar

Way late in the good part of town you can find the walk of shamers. They take Uber now, just so you know. I'm amazed they they actually tell the Uber driver what they're doing. I mean, no one says "I just hooked up with this guy that I met in the bar and we went to his place. It was cool for a while but he didn't want me sleeping there all night". But they are pretty honest.
