    Never going back there

    I went there Sunday night and almost got into a fist-fight with a straight man and his girlfriend who started bothering me and my girlfriend. We were in the back booths just enjoying a meal and this guy comes up to our table and starts asking us whether we like girls or boys, yada yada. I can't believe I had to deal with questions like that in a gay bar. Who does that? How is it his business? We are in a gay bar for Christ's sake. But oh it gets better. Instead of causing a scene right away, we humor him a little and just hope he goes away and leaves us alone. No such luck. Instead, he stands there and complains to us about his girlfriend and how women treat men badly and what's wrong with women. Then he PICKED UP MY PLATE of hummus with his grimy hands to do some kind of demonstration. I told him to put it down several times. He refused and said he was making some kind of joke. I finally had enough and started yelling at him to put my g.d. food down and f. off! He refused. I got up and charged toward him. He put the food down and ran away. We called the waiter over to get another plate of hummus since this freak breathed all over it. Five minutes later he comes back, with his stupid bi-curious girlfriend in tow, who comes up to us and says, "I want to know why they let these c's sit here." She proceeded to tell me that I had a "stick up my a--" and that what I did to her boyfriend was "bad karma". I told her her boyfriend breathed all over my food and we are just here minding our business trying to have a nice Sunday meal. She didn't hear any of it. The screaming escalated and finally the bouncer came over and removed them from our sight but did not kick them out of the club! Long story short: too many a-hole straight people in the club. Lots of bi-curious couples looking to take someone home for the night. What a shame. The Abbey used to be a cool place. Skip it. I am forty and have gone there for years, but I won't go back. I have had it.
