Houston's Missed Connections: Rick Astley Lives!

20070314_missed_connections.jpg

Missed Connections rarely fails to make Houstonist go hmmm or nearly fall out of our chairs laughing. This week was great. Who knew that bagel shops were hotbeds for hook-ups? And, for you avid MC readers, Pamela still hasn't gotten her cork popped in the tasting room. But, we're hopeful.

Never gonna give you up - m4w

We're no strangers to love. You know the rules, and so do I. A full commitment's what I'm thinking of; you wouldn't get this from any other guy. I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling, gotta make you understand...
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you.
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.
Holy shit! It's a Rick Astley reference. MC Jackass, you made our day. Whatever happened to ole Rick, the crooner who danced like he was mixing cake batter? Great. Now the rest of our day will be spent tracking down what happened to other 1980's one hit wonders like Wall of Voodoo.


Exhibitionist - w4m

If you want to see something really special come fill up at the shell station on the northwest corner of 59 and kirby during the day. When you do, look up at the office building in front of you and you will probably see a beautiful naked woman in the upstairs window. I can't control myself. I have to do it. Check tomorrow around 8:00 a.m. and around 2 p.m. and wave so I know you can see me.
Do not, however try to come up to visit. Just enjoy the show like you were in Amsterdam.
Wow. Houstonist will defer to this MC user who says, "Do you think window girl saw the woman giving head to her missed connection at the Shell Station on the same corner as reported on this board yesterday morning?" Apparently this gas station offers more than the Self Service option.


naked blonde in infinity - m4w

You are so hot. Do you drive around like that all the time? I was driving the
the blue Kenmore rig. Anyway thanks.Made my month.P.S. Was your left hand doing what I thought it was?
What's wrong with you? Haven't you ever seen a naked woman put on mascara left handed while commuting to the gennamen's club?


waiter at Juanitas on TC Jester - w4m - 20

i know you notice me..your beautiful and your cute little smile melts me to the core..
I come in usually every once in a while with my family...the other day i came in with two guys and you helped sing one happy birthday.. anyway just had to let you know that i adore you...

if this doesnt work, maybe i'll grow some balls to drive down there one day and give you my number.. :)

We're no expert, but we'll wager our Houstonist paycheck that he won't dig you as much if you grow balls.


HJ @ Bizzare Times - m4m

To the hispanic guy that gave me a hj and rim job at the ABS yesterday. Other than your attempts to screw me in the ass, everything else was really hot. Let me know what you look like so I know it's you and we'll get together again.
Here Houstonist sits thinking that HJs and RJs were a natural lead-in into getting screwed; were you thinking he'd just want to shake your hand and come over for tea and biscuits? Huh. Guess you learn something new everyday.


MARCIA MARCIA MARCIA - Bartender at (old) Aquarium, Proletariat...

Marcia!

You used to kick me out of the (old) Aquarium when I was a measly law student...
You then worked for a while at Proletariat.

I'm not a stalker, just a good customer of your bars that would like to find you again!

Email me and tell me where you're working if you're still in Houston!

I think at one point we were going to get together, but we kept missing each other!

Just wondering if you are okay and where you're serving drinks nowadays!

S

Anyone who remembers the Aquarium Lounge is cool in our book. We hope you find your Marcia, Mr. Brady.
