I had a great time tonight, I went to a pub with friends and had loud and hard hip hop music played at volumes that would hurt your stomach. Music played my way, just like how it would please me at best. However going here to this place and getting to this fun with friends and having some good personal time for me is just not easy as you think it was.
Regardless of what the fuck Indians think on par with their Hindu dogma, I love a drink. I’m not much of a drinker but I find a good taste of vodka, vodka based cocktails and wine. I pay for my booze out of my paycheck, i don’t drink too much and throw up and make a scene, nor do I behave like a pig when I have a drink and of course I clearly know what I’m doing and I’m legally entitled to this shit as an adult Indian in this fucking country, so I don’t see why people should have a fucking problem with it, but some pussies think otherwise and fear their non-existent virginity being lost to a puff of evil whiff in the air god can blow out of his fart from heaven, sigh!
5 hours ago I headed to Dublin a very famous disco / pub at the ever famous Park Sheraton in Chennai to see a friend who invited me over for her birthday party. I head over to the place and just when we were about to get into the pub a bouncer tells me I cannot enter. Another one tells me I should not have come in the first place and it was unethical and stupid of me to have come. The former one says that physically disabled people should not be drinking and its immoral and illegal for them to do so. I told him that anyone over 21 years of age can inject whatever crap they want into their body in a free country like India (sarcasm intended, really!) but the dumb fellow says Its hotel policy not to allow physically disabled people inside the disco and an added logic of "he has a crutch, whats the use of him getting into a disco anyways" dialogue from another wussy while locking my laptop bag in safe custody locker. I ask for the manager and asked them to give me this stuff in writing.
I finally politely and discreetly threaten one of them that I would file a lawsuit for racism and as much as I hate it I had to play that fucked up racism card to let them now I’m a bad ass mother fucker when it comes down to business. Finally after a couple of phone calls and scratching their bald heads the cheap ass Indians think my business worth about Rs. 10,000 that night is worth the risk of them letting me in despite their hotel policy not to allow cripples like me into a disco. The best part is I had three women screaming “he is with me” at the top of their voice and yet I had to pay a cover charge of Rs. 1000, which is applicable for stags.
5 hours since this incident, I don’t regret putting up my stand. I have 3 large vodka’s inside me, a couple of new friends made across the globe, 3 hours of solid fun and 3 hours of thumping music to enchant my senses. Life is hard; sometimes it’s worth fighting for, like for example, today. However being told you are not worth entering a place in front of 3 random women whom you have just been introduced to 45 seconds ago, for any man, I can give it to you is no fucking joke.
Park Sheraton won’t get my business anymore; they can kiss their ass goodbye. I won’t schedule any of my office meetings or conference calls or training programs there anymore, unless I get an explanation whatever the fuck in the world they were trying to tell me this evening. My crutch isn’t my sign of weakness; it’s my symbol of empowerment. Despite a dislocated hip, a post arthritis condition that slowly damages my spinal cord to kill me and the excruciating pain I face every moment of my lifelike a screw driver drilled through my bollocks (yes, I really know what pain on the ass means) it gets my ass moving from point A to point B. If one can’t have the brains to understand that, maybe they should go back to school and stop watching too much mega serials, Tamil movies and leave their fucking religious morality and views at the fucking doorstep when they come to work.
