good on ya though at @yyaldrin for trying seven other establishments after the first refusal, that shows an admirable level of dedication to getting a drink.

THAT MEANS THE BOUNCERS SAID NO NOT YOU SON YOUVE HAD TOO MANY, TAKE YOURSELF HOME, THERES A GOOD BOY
no it wasn't even that. i'm still in cyprus and even though there are some laid back bars, most of the bars here are very upper class. they all look the same, a black interior with "modern" tables. they serve fancy cocktails and at the entrance a guy awaits you with a board on which the reservations are listed. the people wear high heels and shiny shoes. i've only seen people dress like that in holland at a wedding or at new years eve, but here it's the standard apparently. anyway, me, my brother and his friend were all wearing sneakers and jeans and at each establishment they told us "sorry you need to have a reservation".

we drove through ayia napa cos we were nearby and it's really peculiar to be on an island with thousands and thousands of years of history and to walk through a deserted town filled with plastic clubs that have names such as "the castle club" (built like a castle), "the igloo club" (built like an igloo) or "the titanic club" (built like the titanic). they also had a replica of some sort of pirate ship in the port. it's weird how the entire aesthetic caters to childrens taste.

great food options as well:

Walked into a record shop this afternoon unknowingly 10 minutes before an in-store appearance by Jon Langford. Small group, nice way to end the week, a 4pm treat on a sunny and mild Friday.

the other day i heard a loud noise coming from the stairways and so i had a look what was going on and it was the neighbour from the fifth floor throwing his sofa down the stairs. i asked him if he needed some help and as we finished putting the sofa on the street he told me that the sofa was shit and that it was giving him back pains. i asked him how old the sofa was and he told me he had it for 15 years already, then i asked him how come he only realized now that it was a shitty sofa and he told me he hadn't noticed because he was high for the last 15 years and was too numb to feel it

not sure if i told this already but another thing that happened a while back i had bought a new kitchen table second hand and had it delivered to my flat but obviously it was too big and heavy to carry it up the stairs into my appartment myself. i had a look around and saw a young guy chilling in front of the tattoo shop smoking a cigarette. went up to him and asked if he could help me carry it and he was very vague saying he couldn't really help me that he was sorry etc. i got a bit angry because i feel it was a small thing to ask and he wasn't doing anything anyway so i tried to covince him, "it's only two floors", "with the two of us it takes 1 minute" etc. this went on a while and as i was about to give up and walk away he was like "welllll allright i'll see what i can do". then he shoot away his cigarette, got up and i realized he had only one hand, the hand on his other arm was gone and replaced with a hook just like captain hook has in peter pan. i was very embarrassed because i hadn't noticed and i sort of pressured him to help me and he was probably too ashamed to say why he couldn't help me. but what are the odds!? and it really looked like a pirate's hook, not one of those modern realistic prosthesis.
