So I'm in Santa Monica, sitting on a bench on Ocean Ave...

Btw it's been almost 10 years since I've been back here. Much nicer than I remembered, and by that I mean much less homeless people. They used to be all over the Promenade. Not so much anymore. They are still here but I think Austin has Santa Monica beat.

It's been 30 mins and he hasn't come back. If it's meth or some other dope shit, he may start stabbing bitches when he finds it gone.

How much time do we have until your bus arrives?

Family is shopping. I'm killing time enjoying the view of the Pacific and the amazing weather. 

He may kill me if he comes back and sees me next to his stash.

and a black homeless guy leaves this bag of white powder on the bench. I moved to this bench after he leaves because it's in the shade. Hmmmmm...what is it?

What does his skin color have to do with the story? Why is it a black homeless guy and not just a homeless guy?

Details. If it were a white homeless guy I would've said white homeless guy. Quit looking for reasons to get ragey.

I moved to the next bench. People are walking over to sit down, see the white bag and keep moving. 

Two old white French dudes, one wearing a fucking beret, sit down takes a drag on a pipe with weed, look at the bag and say something in French, get up and leave.

This Mexican guy walks over to sit down, sees the bag, looks at me as if to ask if it was mine, I said, nope I quit last week. He laughs. I ask him what it is, he says bad shit, and walks away.

This is a scene from Fletch,  but I dont remember how he handled it. Go fuck the tennis pro.

Odds that you are in a candid camera Youtube situation set up by "homeless black guy" and hidden friends?

I live in a basically red and gray home.  So if I lose it I'll be a red/gray homeless guy.

Funny but almost.  Black hoodie, black beanie, and black sweatpants and a big ass duffle bag.

Back at hotel. I told the family that we're not going to the Getty tomorrow. We're going to sit and watch people all day. Shit was fascinating.

Nice dressed Asian guy with the nope, not sitting there. He moved down to take a pic of the Pacific.

Family is done shopping and I gotta piss. Leaving the bag. Hope some kids don't find it.

What does his race have to do with the story? Why is it an asian guy and not just a guy?

Sounds like anthropology was true your calling. If you take the time, pay attention, and disassociate yourself, people watching can be fun as shit. Humans are remarkably interesting creatures.

Probably just his laundry detergent.  

Sittin’ on a bench at the bay,

watching the tide bag not go away.

Why a French dude and not just a dude with a beret ?

Actually, that's probably a very good answer. Still funny to see mine and everyone's reaction to a white bag sitting on a bench.

Although i did watch him for awhile watching to see if he would leave the bench since it was in the shade and I wanted shade. He stood up and sat down a shit load of times straightening out his pants. Every time I was excited because I thought he was leaving. I thought he was high on some shit or was purposely faking me out. After seeing the white bag I thought it was dope. It could've been laundry soap and he was just nuts.

Did the black homeless man have a stuffed bunny?

 

Walk across the street to the Water Grill, have a beer and some oysters.  Same view, no homeless.

What is the first thing you notice about a person?  Gender.

What's second?

Sure you would. And yet that's something we never see happen. 

Really, it was more of a rhetorical question.

Damn good people watching. It's a social experiment.

You and the fake bag of coke are actually the homeless guy’s social experiment. Social experiment within a social experiment, if you will.

Maybe because on the promenade a bum of color is the exception?

Were the old dudes gay or what?  And why couldn’t they be Italian or Irish?  If they were are they still white?

What if they weren't even foreign, just mimes!

I was going to say it's a low bar and post one of Tom Wilson's songs, but this is actually pretty entertaining. 

 

I am still living with your ghost 
Lonely and dreaming of the west coast 
I don't want to be your downtime 
I don't want to be your stupid game…
