Pedo-what?

I got to the bar pretty much right after they opened on Monday. I watched the Brewers lose another painful one (after being up by three to start the eighth) while consuming my favorite diet food, light beer. After five or so pitchers the Renter agreed to take me down to the casino. I know, I know, I’ve been going there a lot lately but I got the urge after hearing Mr. Karaoke tell me he won $4,000 the night/morning before. So we went. After 20 minutes I was up $250. Yeah, I got up and left. (For the record that’s $500, $100, and $250 in the last week = $850. And of course I only have $250 left in my pocket.) On Saturday we stopped at a downtown bar close to the casino so we decided to do the same on Monday. It was a lot quieter and didn’t have the cool two man band playing but they still had a good atmosphere. Had a good atmosphere. That was until the Renter got mad at me and shouted, “How can you say that when you check out young girls all the time you pedophile!” (Oh no she didn't, girlfriend!) Yes, shouted. When she shouted that five heads turned directly on me. And the looks on their faces were not looks of approval. You know how those pedophiles get treated in the slammer. I don’t even remember what her argument was about. Sure, I might joke about checking out young girls and I might accidentally mistake a girl’s age from time to time but it’s not like I’m going to go out and try to pick up a young’un. It’s not my fault; have you seen the racks they’re sporting now-a-days? They didn’t build them like that back when I was in high school. And it’s not like there are that many hotties walking around Milwaukee, damn heifers. So when I see a hottie I’m going to look; ain’t no stopping that. Hell, I think I only talked to two women total this whole past weekend and lawyer girl and the Renter are much, much older than I am. But God damn, shouting pedophile in a social setting? That’s it; I can never go in that bar again. And she didn’t even feel that she did anything wrong. Just like she didn’t feel she did anything wrong when she announced to the bar what I earn at my job. I just don’t get it.
