NOTE FROM THE MISSED CONNECTIONS CHIEF BOTTLE FINDER:
Oh Brooklyn poet! Making the slightly inappropriate yet endearingly cute comment about hiccups would have been SO much better. Really. If the response was a scowl you’d know immediately they have no ability to appreciate self-deprecating humor. But if the response was an embarrassed grin/laugh/eye flirtation then you’d be walking out of the station together for a beer or a coffee or whatever it is that single beautiful people in Brooklyn do. $10 says those hiccups would be gone in no time – adrenaline will do that, you know.
Hiccups on the G
Missed Connections in Brooklyn
You rode next to me on the G today.
You got on after I did and were hiccuping the whole way.
I wanted to make some funny comment about your hiccups but decided it would be really awkward.
So naturally, I instead made a strange comment about the subway performer right before I exited at Myrtle-Willoughby.
I often question my own intelligence.
If you manage to see this, I thought you were pretty cute.
I promise I’m usually not that awkward. Please get back to me!
