Reponse to "Listen Bro"

Hey man

the party was really lame, no booze,
but Jamie managed to get really drunk

she's a cheap drunk but I don't know

where the alcohol came from, i'm just

sayin it wouldn't take a lot for her to get

drunk you know. And I had to walk her

home, Don and I and Carli actually and

she kissed Carli which was pretty funny

I hope she remembers that tomorrow but

she probably won't she'd be really embarrassed

it was quite a long walk home and she fell

down a few times total shitshow

anyways we poured her into bed around

2. and I got a call from mykel and she was

really drunk too actually and we hung out

for awhile we didn't fuck or anything though

I know that's what you were about to ask

we just smoked cigarettes while she sobered

up a little bit anyways you didn't miss

anything good i'll talk to you later

  1. What were you trying to say in your response? Was this to the "rig" of Listen, bro.

  2. The part that impacted me most was after the long winded explaination of the drunken night you ended it with "you didn't miss anything good". I smiled because it is so true.

  3. I love how this is realistic and funny without being sentimental. A brief letter about a totally ordinary night, nothing special, "didn't miss anything good" and the faintest sense that the author just on the brink of discovering the futility of the early-twenties weekend rituals of booze and "hookin' up".

  4. Very well done. It kind of feels like one of the poems you read in chicken soup for the soul, but at the end no one dies. I love reading stuff like this, and it is definitely relate-able (SP??) lol!
