Entourage

BOBW 8

 For today's post I want to talk about a TV show that is about friendship, Entourage. Because this blog is about friendship with a side of brotherhood, it makes Entourage perfect for this. 
Entourage is show that ran on HBO from July 2004 to September 2011. The show follows a young up and coming actor and his friends from his hometown of Queens New   York. As I said before the theme of the show is friendship, and it also has situations of living in Hollywood.
I personally loved the show. The situations were funny, and I loved the agent, Ari Gold the most. He is always abusing people in the most hysterical ways. It is fun to watch his character develop, and he also helped create a couple memes. 
Another part of the show I enjoy is the theme of friendship. The show has these awesome friends playing pranks on each other, giving wonderfully bad advice, some good advice, and loving each others company just like a fantasy. They have their issues, but these five guys have a great friendship that I hope to develop some day.
The show is not perfect however. I did find that the show and a bit a of a lull toward the end. This is probably because the show doesn't really have a plot or end game in mind. It's just about watching a bunch of bros live in Hollywood. They probably just ran out of ideas toward the end.
Overall I liked the show a lot. I would give it a 4/5 stars. I have not seen the movie yet, but I've heard terrible things so I'm hesitant.

BOBW 11 In the spirit of practicing what I preach, I decided to take a trip out this weekend. My memory is still a little fuzzy due to plenty of alcohol, but I will do my best to recollect the night. It started out just like any other night, the clock hit the 10 PM and that means it was time to suit up. I wanted to check out a particular spot called the 8 bit Beercade. This place is fun twist between a bar with plenty of interesting beer options and a video game arcade as the name suggests. The concept is very similar to what I want to do, so I thought it would be best to see how it works up close and not sober. I walked in and was greeted by the typical bouncer and the bar is the first thing upon walking through the doors. This is perfect, because the establishment has its priorities set. Sell drinks! I bought a drink and walked around taking in the atmosphere. The set up was great. It felt good to walk around and watch all the games being played. One thing I really liked abo...

A Bar's Universal Greeting

BOBW 12 When you see a pretty young lady across the room, the thing men are taught to do is offer her drink. You stumble up to her, mumble a greeting and then ask, “Can I buy you a drink?” She will typically respond with a yes and once she gets that drink BOOOOOOOOM she is gone like Sonic the hedgehog after spotting a chili dog cart. OK it does not always have to go like that but that's pretty typical from a male point of view. So why not spend that money on someone who will appreciate it? Buy that drink for a fellow man! He will be much more likely to assume you have no agenda and accept the gesture of friendship you are putting forth. I had this realization when I saw guy dancing at a bar and he spilled his drink and looked completely defeated. He gave a bit of a smile and said, “Oh well!” Then he headed to the bar for another drink. I thought to myself, “Would it not be nice if I replaced his drink, and struck up a conversation?” That would be out of the ordinary and it wo...
