Saddest Man Ever

Yesterday I had a really depressing lunch experience. I didn't have time to go home for lunch. I didn't know where to go so I wandered around for a while looking at the places around campus. I saw a little Mediterranean place and I got all excited because it seemed so collegiate, you know, cheap falafel and all.

The place was totally empty, and the guy behind the counter was literally the saddest man I have ever ordered a falafel sandwich from. I wanted to ask him about some of the other menu items, but he was too sad looking. I think he might need prozac. Or a hug.

So I sat there waiting for my falafel, and the sadness of the guy is infecting the whole restaurant. The walls are painted Beaver orange, and they have designs and words formed by placing masking tape over the darker paint underneath. The words say "OSU" and "GO BEAVS" but, like, in masking tape writing. If the place had been full of rambunctious college students, eating falafel made by the happiest man on earth, I can't say for sure if the walls would have been so depressing.

Anyways, my falafel arrived, and it had too much cumin. I don't like too much cumin. Also, the tahini tasted like mayonnaise, and that's just not right. Otherwise than that it was pretty good. But the whole situation was so depressing that it was awkward. Also it wasn't that cheap. It's too bad because sometimes those little hole-in-the-wall places have the best food. There is a little Pho place I'm going to try next.

Don't stop the rock

Today I went to the 7-11 and there was a dude sitting in his car in the parking lot, rocking out to "Lady In Red" from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack at full volume. It was awesome. Anyways, just thought I'd share.
