IT IS VERY IMPORTANT
a few nights ago, i took my photo teacher nora to this small, live music lounge after class.
we went in, listened to the live music, got drinks, etc. the crowd was decent but mostly older. after a few hours, the crowd thinned out, a couple of the other cute girls left, and there was this one drunk dude sitting behind us at the bar.
now, nora is cute, and the guy was drunk, and he had already made a sort of heckling comment to one of the performers, and i am sure that he was checking out nora and feeling jealous that she was with me -- and so then, he took the opportunity to attempt to amog me.
this is what happened.
the owner of the bar went on stage to the mic and made a few announcements about upcoming performances, and then said, please don't forget to tip, the tip jar is right here.
so a few songs later, i went up to the tip jar at the front of the room next to the stage, and threw in five bucks.
when i was coming back and sitting down, the drunk dude sitting behind us yelled out pretty loudly,
"hey dude, how much did you tip??"
he didn't say it really aggressively -- he said it with a slow, drunken drawl -- but it was clearly an aggressive move to make me feel awkward -- and look stupid -- in front of my girl -- and in front of the entire bar, cause everyone heard it.
no surprise there -- men fighting over limited resources.
in this situation, the previous version of rivelino might have had something slightly witty to say -- or not -- but that bullshit attack would have pissed me off for the rest of the night, thrown me off my game, and i would have left the bar with a bad taste in my mouth, and gone off in my own head about how people were so stupid, and why was everyone so mean, and wtf, etc. i would have wrapped myself up in fury and bitterness and victimization. if it had been high school rivelino, i probably would have vowed to never go to a bar again, cause drunk people were so stupid.
but the new version of rivelino, the man who honed his frame control skills over eight months in the hostile environment of company x, well the new rivelino didn't even break a sweat.
the answer came to me so easily and effortlessly, that it was actually humorous and fun -- it was one of the highlight of the night, in fact.
so, to repeat, here is the situation:
i walk up to the stage, throw some cash in the tip jar, and as i coming back to my seat, a drunk guy says to me,
"hey dude, how much did you tip??"
i turn around, look at him, and what do i say?
