Customer Feedback!!! Tarzan says its still
easier to pick up on women when their boyfriend
is in the bathroom. The bar is probably the
only place in town that I can forget about all
things tech and just drink myself stupidthe way
it should be. Great, so you can sound even
more creepy when you ask for a girl's
number Hey baby, let me text you a drink
