Let me explain. Around 11PM last night, I was driving to a concert at Numbers Nightclub on Westheimer in the Montrose area. When I reach Westheimer I see the road has been blocked off, but I don't know why. Already, running late, I decide to cut through some inner neighborhood streets, to go parallel to the street. Suddenly I see all these people walking in various inside streets I assume to get back into their cars. Upon closer inspection, I notice alot of these people are dressed weird. Like guys wearing just some brightly coloured underwear and shoes, or I see some people carrying flags and I also see alot of feminine looking men. There is nearly 200-300 of these people in the few streets I passed. As I'm passing near a street called Fairview, suddenly a group of these people decide to cross the street. There is no cross walk or stop sign, so it is apparent they are jaywalking. It is late at night, and light is low, so I only see them at the last second. I stop maybe a few feet away from them while they are in the middle of the road. Suddenly, one guy jumps and lies down on the front engine portion of my car. I assume he was a homosexual, because he was just wearing tight blue underwear, a black vest, and some New Balance shoes. He had his hair dyed blond in a style similar to Morrissey's haircut. Then the rest of his homosexual pack begin slapping the side of my car with their happy hands. I was kind of shocked, but I thought it was funny, since most things like this don't bother me. My passenger in the car was a girl I was going out on a first date. She seemed visibly shaken, but I didn't think there was anything to be frightened about. The homosexual in the blue underwear, then gets off the roof of my car, and laughs. He is getting high fives from the rest of his pack. Normally, I would have thought about car damage, but the guy appeared to be maybe 120-130 lbs. There is quite a bit of traffic in the area, and other cars behind me start honking at me also. I still don't know wtf just happened, but I continue since I'm in a rush. I arrive at Numbers, about 20 minutes late, but luckily the show hasn't started. I ask someone about all the pedestrian traffic in the surrounding area, and they tell me about a Pride Festival in the area. Apparently it is a festival where homosexuals get to have a parade. I did not know about anything like this in Houston, partly because I don't read the local paper or watch the local news. Even if I had known about it, I thought a parade is during the day, but it appeared that it had just finished at 11PM at night. I thought it was funny, but my date kept talking about it at the show. It really upset her, partly because she is a country yokel from Europe. I thought the date was going really well, but at the end of the night, she just wanted to go home. I'm all for gay rights, but I don't stand for gay people having the right to jump on my car.
I think it's Pride weekend this weekend. oh, i guess i need to read all of the post. Dude, there are some hottie chicks there. I mean non butch. I drove through it one time i think in 2002. I drove back one more time to see some hot lesbian action.
I'm straight, so it's okay for me, right? Woo hoo. I hope you drive a Mercedes or something high end. I weigh about 600 lbs
I second this for thread of the year... i still dont get why having a parade means you get to wear your underwear out in public... I have never seen an Irishman wearing his skivvies on Saint Paddy Day...
Best. Thread. Evar! Just to clarify, it is Gay Pride Week around the US. Houston hosts one of the largest Gay Pride Parades in the nation. And NO ONE should jump on your car while you are driving regardless of sexual orientation. I'm guessing it had less to do with the level of gayness than it had to do with the level of intoxication.
