Dear Mr. Hitchhiker
Missed Connections in Asheville
So I’ve seen you.
Uptown, walking around.
Dishwater dreadys, cased guitar, body that isn’t to be kicked out the bed…
the tan only to be gotten by chillin’ on the side of the road…
When you called me and my friend HOT HIPPIE CHICKS we soo thought that was classy…
until you kept talking.
Once you tell someone FUCK YOU the line is crossed over to unnecessarily unattractive.
To tell you the truth, we were both impressed, before you got mad at us for not being able to help you out.
I’ll be honest, I’ve lived on the road, been there.
–Maybe you were thirsty, been a while since you had a smoke?
ADVICE: Don’t make the impression that people HAVE TO feel sorry for you as 80% of the roadies are choosing their situation.
Things happen to good people but you, I imagine, are a chooser.
I dearly hope the person that may have picked you up was not subject to your sucky ass attitude and you chose to appreciate what they could do.
Banter is all good; but don’t get all ugly for no reason when someone CAN’T do what you want.
Just saying.

Her Two Cents from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle-Finder:
It’s been some time since we’ve had a really scathing “poison pen” missed connection, and this one certainly fulfills the category! The truth is that some people are just black-holes of negativity and think nothing of being rude and nasty when things don’t go their way. Doesn’t matter how physically attractive you may be, a “sucky ass attitude” (to quote our Ashvillian poet) is a downright buzz-kill. I’m sure you weren’t the only ones who kept walking…
