Here's my first Instagram post for SGSAM and I thought it could use a bit of explaining...
So, on October 28th I decided to head in to work early and go to the bookstore. Not something uncommon at all. I then spent too much time in the bookstore to wait for a train (also common) and decided it would be quicker to walk the 15 blocks to work. So I began my trek from 12th and Broadway. I knew I had to pass through Union Square and I usually love the vibe. There's so much to do and see and so many people to watch... but not today. I put in my headphones and began walking at a VERY brisk pace. It was when I got halfway through the square, it happened. A guy stops me by waving and looking very concerned. I can't help but take out my headphones and look at him. He asks me very upset, "Where's the nearest Starbucks?!" I reply, "Dude. We're in Union Square. There's one on every corner." to which he says, "Right. You're beautiful you know? I love your vibe. Are you Persian? You're gonna give me your number and I'll show you a REAL Persian time." I quickly respond with, "Fuck off, dude" throw a peace sign and continue my way. He follows me for about 3 blocks and then gets tired and I lose him. #thatsnotokay #fuckthepatriarchy #shitguysscreamatme
