So I have no idea if coconuts are the new trend in wburg....

...

Here's the latest NY Times style piece about walking around Williamsburg with a coconut. Although we share NYMag's apprehension of this "trend," as we've actually

However, this did somewhat remind me of a Daba Diaries. I hope I never wrote about this. Here's the abbreviated version....

 

One night I was at the bar Union Pool, I think I was on a sorta date or something. I don't remember the exact situation but for some reason I was feeling really confident. Anyways, I go to the bar to get drinks while my date? was outside. Anyways, at the bar I see two girls. The one farther from me is cuter but the one closer to me is the one I'm chatting it up with.

 

In any case, instead of saying hey what's your number or getting her info. I give her my Prefix card and tell her to get in touch if she wants to hang out or something along those lines. Sure enough she does get in touch a few days later.

 

Fast-forward and I take her to a party around Fort Greene and there's a dude selling coconuts. For some reason it seemed like a refreshing and funny thing so we buy them and roll up to the party with coconuts. I should mention that the party was hosted by a dude in a band and I swear this girl had a thing for the drummeer. End of the night and no make out no nothing.

 

We hang out once more. That night ACB is my wingman or something. Actually, I won't call him a wingman because he's terrible at it and only makes things worse. He's not #1. He also nicknamed this girl "Big Nose." That's just cruel but...

 

Anyways, we're all hangin out and she has some friends. Then some guy that looks like a cross between the Gogol Bordello guy and the dude in Black Lips who got beat up or whatever this weekend rolls up. He seems to be working really hard to get this girl to meet up with him or something.

 

We then go back to stupid Union Pool. Hours pass then at like last call, Gogol Black Lips dude comes through. ACB is outside and they won't let him back in. I tell the girl let's get out of here cause ACB is outside but she's all talkiin to wanna be rock n roll dude. So I'm like okay whatever and get out. Me and ACB then leave and are like she's not that cute anyways. But the thing that got me was losing out to cheesy moustache dude that looks like he's in a band but definitely is not in a band I know. Later that night she texted something like sorry about the end of the night, let's hang out soon. I never talked to her again.

Or you just have to look sort of like a guy from a pretty good band (Black Lips) crossed with a dude from a pretty bad band (Gogol Bordello).
