  • I almost feel sorry for this sleepy head....Almost

    Had a good lark last night with a numpty who thought sleeping was ok....

    Bit of background....for some reason i ended up being the only doorman inside the club patroling and keeping an eye on about 130 peeps while it took 4 to manage the door and pop there heads in one at a time every now and then......sods....absolutely pissing down outside......2 hen partys in having a laugh and one bloke who must hav been 60 - 65 having a good old bop on the dancefloor...

    On with the story.....while patroling i spot a sleeper on the sofa in the corner.....so i go up and give him a shake and tell him he cant sleep in here.....he responds saying ok and what have you so i let him be and keep walking round..........next walk round he is at it again so give him a knock again and tell him to go home i give him a few minutes to gather himself and h seems to nod off again........but this time one of the hen partys had spotted him and were taking turns to pose for photos. I walked over and th hen party mention to me they bet im going to stop there fun now etc etc.....so i just told them i was wondering if they had lipsticked him or anything before they posed.....What a class idea they all said, and asked me not to toss him for another 5 minutes.

    I stay in the vacinity and half the party dig into there handbags and pull out makeup kits and what have you......poor buggers having his face done...but that wasent good enough for the girls...they had to roll his trouser legs up nd pull his top up and draw o him as well. When they wre dn he was a right state ad had "homo" in scarlet lipstick on his forehead. They got a crap load of pictures and had half the place watching on.

    I woke him and walked him out when they were done and the lad couldent work out why everyone was wetting themselves laughing at him, god knows what he will think when he wakes up in the morning and looks in a mirror etc.

    Sorry, I have to call some asshattery on your part here for allowing that to happen. Reverse the situation a bit if you will. What if that was a woman on the couch and a bunch of men partying wanted to do that to her all in innocent fun? Would you have allowed it? Doubtful! If that had happened to her, she would have called the cops and filed charges. If it is wrong to that to one person, it is wrong to do it to another. I'm not saying it was not perhaps deserved and even funny to "paint up the drunk" but it seems a bit unprofessional on your part.

      Seconded.

      I also have to wonder what was wrong with him, if he could fall asleep there.

        Its quite normal for drunks to fall asleep in the club

          Im guess im against the majority here. I think if he was going to be kicked out of the club in the first place, and asked to leave a good 3 times, he had it coming. Yes, its not the nicest or kindest thing to do, but the bouncer could just claim ignorance, and the other guests got a good kick out of it. I know I would

            I neither agree or disagree...I do, however, think its funny. Having been a bartender...drunks attempting sleep in a bar does happen...add a club with couches...more often.

            He didn't move the first two times he was asked...so, he left himself open to debauchery and being marked on with lipstick is not terrible.

              Give a whole new meaning to "You snooz you lose". My mom used to help out in the local tavern every once in a while, and they had a regular who regularly got painted. The pics were ridiculous. You would think after a time or two you would figure it out. Don't pass out in the bar.

                It's funny, he'd been told twice to leave, and there's no lasting damage here.
                And just maybe he'll learn a lesson.

                  It was lipstick, not permanent marker, so I think the OP was cool, and I think the guy kind of earned it. If he'd been incapacitated by illness or injury, it would be different.

                  If they'd stuck his hand in a bowl of warm water, that wouldn't be cool, because then a lot of other people would suffer.

                    thanx guys

                    Myself and everyone working who saw him thought it was a great laugh, nothing that a quick wash wont fix and it brightened the night for so many

                    Now when a sleeper had his shoes tied together by a bunch of lads after a lark......they lost the round they had just bought and were tossed out as soon as they pointed and said we did that.....

                    I wouldent have let any harm come to him, a laff's a laff as long as it stays non harmful

                      I agree w/ the first few posters. You have fun at other people's expense? Nice.

                        I'm of mixed mind.

                        Sure, it's not that nice to treat a complete stranger like that.

                        But then, he did let himself be totally out of it at a club, of all places, and didn't have anyone with him to protect him from possibly far worse than a little doodling with lipstick. In some ways, he got off pretty light.

                          What she said (including the part I trimmed to save space).

                          Ultimately, though, I think I'm siding with the OP on this one, though that may be somewhat influenced by my being to parties, hacker cons, and the like where permanent marker was probably the least of a sleeper's problems.

                              Have to agree with you here. People would be outraged if it was a woman. Writing Homo across a man's forehead is about the same as writing Whore somewhere on a woman. That the OP also allowed them to lift up his clothing makes it even worse.

                              Well, actually, the OP couldn't claim ignorance as he was asked by the ladies if it was alright to continue and started the lipstick based on his joke. That he had it coming is a scary precedent in my book.

                              Do we know there was no lasting damage? Do we know no one molested or robbed him on his way home? (The OP might know the answer to this)

                              I normally don't get into the "ooh that's so wrong!" crowd but donruss's point was a good one.
