Let&#8217;s start with the first one. I think maybe he saw me at a Christmas party two years ago drinking a Corona and just assumed that was my thing. There&#8217;s that guy that stands in the corner, flinching when coworkers approach him, just suckin down Coronas till the Mexican word for cows come home. I should probably ask him about it every time I see him. It never fails:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Hey how&#8217;s it going man, you gonna go home and drink a Corona tonight?&#8221; I think the first time he asked me I started doing finger guns like, psh, hell yeah I&#8217;m gonna drink a Corona tonight, what do I look like over here? The second time I said something douchey like, &#8220;Haha, at the least!&#8221; Like, not only am I going to go home and drink a Corona, I might smoke some drugs. I might kill a man. I&#8217;m a ticking fucking time bomb ese, you have no idea. The third time the strange man with a gun asked me if I was going to go home and drink a Corona, I began to question our relationship. What are you, counting my drinks? I don&#8217;t have to answer to YOU. With your badge and your suit. Do you know how many LIMES I would go through if I had a Corona every day? Plus, haven&#8217;t you heard of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ocweekly.com\/2014-02-06\/news\/santa-ana-michoacan-templarios-mexico-autodefensas\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mexican lime cartels<\/a>? DO YOU KNOW HOW EXPENSIVE LIMES ARE RIGHT NOW? I&#8217;m not a <em>Templario<\/em>, ok guy?<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Now I&#8217;m caught in an infinite conversation loop with a person who doesn&#8217;t understand how conversations work, as he attempts to talk to someone that doesn&#8217;t want to have a conversation. I don&#8217;t have the heart to say, &#8220;Dude, this has to stop. I drink all sorts of things ok? I like coffee. I drink water. I drank an indecipherable liquid from a Portuguese soccer trophy once and slipped into a cute little coma for a few hours.&#8221; I don&#8217;t say these things. Instead I do the ol&#8217;, &#8220;Heh heh yeah man ok see you later&#8221; and then power walk out the door.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supertmh2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lewis.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-239\" alt=\"lewis\" src=\"http:\/\/www.supertmh2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lewis.jpg\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supertmh2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lewis.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supertmh2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/lewis-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a>The weird thing is, I&#8217;m not quite sure what this security guard is guarding. He&#8217;s only in the building from 3:30 to 5:00, and there&#8217;s nothing there worth stealing. I&#8217;m forced to assume that this guy is some kind of Corona spokesperson.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">One day he threw me a curveball. I braced myself for the strange line of beer questioning but instead was asked if I could get him a copy of some ancient DVD ripping software. &#8220;You know what this is right?&#8221; he asked. &#8220;I want to make a copy of a DVD so I can watch it on my TV whenever I want.&#8221; He was very insistent that I got him some version from the mid 2000&#8217;s. I reluctantly nodded and said that I would see what I could do. 7,000 malware and phishing warnings later, I learned that his request was impossible. This thing was banished from the internet, and I would need to download it from some deep web forum that probably sold children&#8217;s organs and cocaine by mail.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">So I did what any normal person would do &#8211; I avoided him for about a month. Eventually he stopped me in the hall, and god help me, I really felt like I let him down. &#8220;Sorry man, I don&#8217;t think I can get it for you.&#8221; His head sunk, his shoulders slumped, all this guy wanted to do was pirate movies, and I failed him. &#8220;It&#8217;s ok,&#8221; he said, &#8220;You probably drank too many Coronas, that&#8217;s why you couldn&#8217;t find it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>You can watch me scream and yell all of my recent posts on\u00c2\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/awesometalktv\">AwesomeTalk<\/a>!
