Dudes...man up. I was in Stockholm a few weeks ago and my girlfriend let me dig for as long as i want after i explained to her that serious records were in the place. After that she paid for my rekkids and shot a little video of me diggin in the store. Just get yo point across. If it doesn't work, y'all better compromise and spend some quality time with her after/or before diggin. It's really simple.
See the thing is I have the girlfriend bench. I have the pseudo park bench with the table and some fly magazines and the village voice and a fucking WATER COOLER. Goddamn man a girl can chill and drink some water and shit! She doesn't have to do shit! Just let her man do his thing.
My girl only comes along if we're out of town, and while she insists on hanging out with me she's not happy in a record store for more than maybe 5-15 minutes.
There's one spot I go to on vacation with a whole lounge area w/at least one couch, a TV showing DVDs, and mags/books... NOT GOOD ENOUGH. She still gets extremely unhappy, and will sometimes go sit in the car fuming until I'm done.
haha, i was just about to say your girl brought that nintendo DS with her last time she came by the store, i didn't know she hated it like that... tell her next time she can comandeer the remote... we have direct tv! and a couch! and a water cooler!... or she can comandeer the computer
Oh shit, I forgot she has been in your spot a couple times... and you guys have all those same accoutrements!
Anyone who spends that much time with me will basically learn to hate records.

tell her to call ahead next time and we'll set up the wii... fuj will whip her ass in bowling!
The funny thing is, anyone who has been to GRNYC knows that you can go through the entire stock in 30 minutes or less ... I mean, this ain't no "flip through thousands of terds" spot, it's a specialized store with a select stock.
But then again, despite the turn this discussion took, it seemed ol' girl's problem wasn't the waiting, it was that Timmy was spending their meal money on latin raers.
this thread is comedy! but i have witnessed an ex-boyfriend go completely nuts because we lagged with breakfast motivation one hungover saturday morning and his blood sugar dropped which in turn shortened his fuse but as soon as pancakes were all up in his face everything was normal and nice again. isn't low blood sugar conducive to crabbiness? seriously, dudes never been hongry?
YO bobbydee! i thought there's mad cool chicks over in brizvegas thats into funk grooves and hiphop beats ??!
ain't it so?
I've found a couple... brisneyland has mostly 2 groups (like anywhere I guess) the pseudo hipster alternates and the 's (does that graemlin make anyone think of alf stewart?)
The interesting girls come out of thee woodwork for live shows and/or good dj's, but lord knows where they hide the rest of the time.
OK, so I'm cool with spending some time at Groove Merchant or whatnot, but how come my man has a total hissyfit when I just want to browse the Neiman Marcus clearance shoe sale??? Hello? MarcJacobRaersHalfOff?

DOUBLE STANDARD!
I'm just sayin' Anna - Neiman's boyfriend couch is mad wack. They need to hook up an XBox 360 or some shit. At least a Cosmopolitan (aka women's magazines that men sneak peaks at) but instead, if there's anything, it's like...Vogue or WWD or whatever. I mean, unless I can read about how you're (as in women) are supposed to be pleasing me (aka "your man") then I don't need to know what the Spring line coming out of Milan looks like (that's what Project Runway is for).
I mean, JP has a WATER COOLER. You thirsty at Neiman Marcus? SOL.
now i just gotta find one that's into music and uncrazy.
I know from experience. This is harder than it looks.
I just gave up on the music/uncrazy double, I am convinced it doesn't exist. I've gone from 'not into music & way crazy' to 'way into music & a bit crazy at times', I fear that is the closest I will get but I am not unhappy with my current upgrade/situation.

I'll fuck with a vogue. Be it living or regular. You'd be surprised how many good coversations are started by commenting on what a woman is wearing in relation to current collections. They either a) spent a shitload on what they are wearing and appreciate you know it or b) didn't spent much but appreciate you thinking that it's haute couture (it shows their shopping prowess)

What are you doin draggin your man through Needless Markup anyway? That place gets the major gasface. edit: i understand they get a lot of shit in that nobody else gets, thus, the reason to go there. I've got personal issues w/ that place relating to one specific story. I'll tell you about it next time I see you out Anna, if you remind me.

ya know the dudes would dig all they want and they ladies be sitting at your bench drinking and watching TV shows...doing the girlie chit chat thing

Stock a couple of bottles of wine in the shop. You can get good bottles for under $10. Then the girls will feel oh so great while sipping on some red.

It's awesome, plus they probably think oyu spend more when you're a little juiced. I think I probably do too. It sure makes digging more fun too.
