Transcript:
Bartender: This is from the fellow a couple seats down from you. Woman: Oh, how sweet. Bartender: That'll be three dollars. Woman: I thought you said he bought it for me. Bartender: He paid for half. Rat: I'm not made of money.
Well, maybe it’s the gentleman in me, but I never thought that paying to get a woman drunk was considered “gentlemanly” either. It just always struck me as being the tactic that jackasses chose after their version of charm proved unsuccessful.
lot of women find it excusable in themselves to say, “I chose to go to a bar, and gave the drunk me the freedom to let myself loose”(or when thinking of others) while they “judge others” who chose to work “in the street” (is what they envision most when thinking of sex for hire) as most of the street ones are hooked on drugs, unlike the call girls and the ones in Nevada
I don’t know about that, but I would like to think that Rat will actually succeed. However, since he only paid half, she will begin whatever nasty he had in mind but halfway through will announce, “Well, that’s half a . See ya.” It’s why Rat is usually very tense.

If you want to give her a “Dutch treat,” Rat, move to Holland and never come back; that’ll be a real treat for her.

Sex is a side effect to the drink…especially if it was accessorized with Ecstasy.

Rat strikes out again. As long as Rat is Rat, he will always strike out. It’s a Law of the Universe.

Half is about half more than I’d expect from Rat. Surprised he didn’t get the bartender to charge her for his!
