Customer: “Ooh, you have union suits!”
Me: “Aren’t they cool? We just got them in.”
Customer: “I love a man in a union suit.”
Me: “Well, the Misfits are hosting our annual Union Suit Night on December 16. You should definitely check it out.”
Customer: “Who are the Misfits?”
Me: “We’re a local social and service club, and we bartend at Ripcord once a month to fundraise for our beneficiaries.”
Customer: “How fun! You know, my husband and I just moved to Houston, and we’ve been looking for ways to get involved in the community. He’s really into bowling, and I enjoy group sex.”
Me: “Okay…”
Customer: “Yeah, we’re going to like it here. So… think you could model one of those union suits for me?”
A quick memo to future Forge patrons: If you ask me to model something for you, and I say no, asking me seven more times will not magically cause me to cave. In fact, I will be strangely less agreeable about it than the first time you asked. That said, and owning there’s nothing new under the sun, I do hope he and his husband find a nice, welcoming, polyamorous bowling league, because the couple that plays together stays together. And I also hope that he never, ever comes back to tell me about it.
I imagine he said that incredibly casually, as though bowling and group sex are inextricably linked and the most common combination of interests in the world.

Also, the Forge is a leather shop, correct? Are the union suits made of leather? Because I think I want a leather union suit.

Leather union suits would be amazing. Alas, these are a cotton/Spandex blend.
