Pickup fail

I’m looking at furniture at Wal-Mart while wearing my work clothes¹ when this odd looking guy walks by me. He looks either mentally handicapped, high, or both…so of course he stops and talks to me.
Goon: “Hey, you work here?”
Me: “Uh…no.”
Goon: “What’s THAT then?”
Me: “Oh, my work badge from my actual job.”
Goon: “Oh, have you been to the club² across the street?”
Me: “Yeah…”
Goon: “Will I see you there tonight?”
Me thinking: NO NO NO
Me: “Uh… maybe.”
Maybe is Minnesotan for “oh hell no.”

¹ gray slacks, argyle sweater, black shoes. ² He’s referring to Townhouse, St. Paul’s oldest gay bar…conveniently located across the street from Wal-Mart.
