The Intelligent Homosexual, David Soo

Malini wanted to show David the Guthrie Theater so they decided to stand in line for rush tickets to see the new play by Tony Kushner, the Intelligent Homosexual. The insanity of this play was far beyond what either had anticipated and rather than staying for the entire 3 1/2 hours they were told the play would last, the two stayed for the first two acts and then called the trusted "Night Hawk" taxi service and Scott came to pick them up.

Scott was on his way to the Dubliner, an Irish pub, where two of Scott’s friends were performing. On their way to the show, David and Malini attempted to process the craziness that was “The Intelligent Homosexual,” but were unable to clearly explain the happenings of the play. Scott was highly disturbed by the conversation and remained silent for much of the drive. Because it was now after 10:00, the pair were very hungry, having eaten lunch at 4:00, so they decided to make a quick stop-in at Subway, where Malini and David each had some dinner. During this excursion, David witnessed a really sad encounter, where a skinny roughly five-year-old boy’s mother (who looked like she weighed over 300 pounds) overruled his decision not to have mayonnaise on his sandwich, saying, “Oh it will be really dry without it.”

After discussing the depressing incident and the state of unhealthy eating behavior in America, the trio arrived at the Dubliner, to watch Reverse Cowboy. The eclectic crowd at the Dubliner included the band's number one fan, a female who makes the two band members birthday cakes and an assortment of other baked goods, a drunk 20-ish male who had been at the Twins game earlier in the night and who attempted to steal one of the guitars from the band, and a Dungeons and Dragons-esque couple who kept time to the music with fake Irish-step-dancing. Eight Guinesses, one homosexual slur, and quite a few fun songs later, it was time to head back to Uptown where frozen chocolate cake and Jelly Bellies were waiting to be consumed.
