Upon first glance, an everyday scene: a man sitting in a booth at the Rock and Roll Hotel, on his iPhone, engrossed in something. Then the light catches your eye, and you wonder about the string of pearls on the table. For a moment, intrigue takes over from ordinary, until you turn back to the bar and order another drink. Furcafe captures the scene nicely. (EXIF)

Nice. Kinda reminds me of Edward Hopper's Chop Suey, except, y'know, more depressing.

It is quite reminiscent of Hopper, in that new millennial kind of way.

I think he's "reading" the American Apparel ads on dcist.

I'd rather give a girl a pearl necklace in private. Just leaving the pearl necklace out there on the table like that is a little awkward. And sticky.

Maybe it's his "tip" for the waitress?

I try to give my tip to waitresses as often as possible.

She was really bombed. And I was really blown away. Until I asked her what she wanted, and this is what she had to say: A pearl necklace.

Researching the effectiveness of using pearls to strangle hookers.

So he's uploading his date's booty pic using the Hot-or-Not app. Who hasn't done that?

Tranny hookers, strangled hobos, fresh delicious babies and mambo sauce, oil-soaked Middle Eastern perverts, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Merry Xmas, Charlie Brown!

These comments are starting to sound like a Billy Joel song. You know the one I'm talking about.

Don't go changing, to try and please me...

Call Hershey. I see a new product. Chocolate covered pearls.

That is, in fact, Tony from Greenland/MDR! By the way, he would never tarnish a good set of pearls. Pure luxury, that guy.
