I just sit there with my earphones on, not listening to any music or YouTube vlogs. I’m blogging or poet-ing or prose writing or all of that.
I hear people laughing in a weird way and now I’m comparing the barista’s laugh to some other guy in a booth across the room from me. They should both go out with each other. They have twin laughs.
A boy next to me tells his high school gf, I’ve got a cute picture of you! and she gets out of her chair to join him on his red cushioned booth seat, so she can cuddle with him while looking at the pictures on his phone.
Machine noises happen at the front of the coffee shop when “the grind” is happening or a the steam milk is airing.
Girls making noises with their mouths make very different noises than men would.
“Yeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeah,” says a man I see at the café a lot. I always laugh under my breath when I hear him saying multiple yeahs with his urban accent. Sometimes he goes on a marathon of yeahyeahyeahs like it’s a Guinness World Record.
The smells are all over the place, but mostly it’s one of staleness. The fans are not turned up much and the door is not open, so there are smells lingering around the café.
Clop, clop, purrress, goes the wooden floor as patrons pass by. Will they spill their coffee or tea? Without a saucer underneath they’re bound to, but I did not know about saucers in cafes until I started getting pots of green tea for my table.
The door squeaks open and a chubby bald man with a beard leaves while his smell passes through my nostrils. The door opens again and he comes back inside while I realize I smelled him coming before the door opened. This is a terrible realization and I’m just glad I’m not sitting near a bathroom.
I can smell something sugary and it reminds of those ginger cookies cafes have behind the glass case with little sugar sprinkles on them.
Lots of conversation sounds spew up into the air and bounce around the wooden board walls and off the wood floor.
There’s even a child’s voice now and it all sounds nothing like a laugh track Very lively now and I’m alone typing what I’m experiencing here.
I’ve been feeling quite alone lately, so much so that I joined Tinder but I would rather talk to people, and smile and look into their eyes because apparently that’s what we are supposed to be doing because otherwise our lives are just meaningless!
I did not come up with the above new age idea on my own. Instead, an old Alan Watts recording uploaded onto a YouTube channel told me.
He’s carrying his son’s plastic sword for him and follows his son to the backdoor admiring this painting above me as he goes out. He’s looking at a painting on the wall and I know the artist who did a rendition of “When Alexander the Great Met Diogenes the Cynic.” He sat with me for a bit and drank his coffee hoping I would by a painting, but I wouldn’t.

HOW TO USE TINDER
I’m like a detective for fake accounts now
Finding fake accounts is so easy.
The scammers don’t know English.
How so, bro?
If a person on Tinder is asking you what you are looking for on this “app” instead of using normal English day to day words, like instead of using the word “date” they say “appointment!” LOL! OMG!
Revision Update! I will not be buying Super Likes.
I will buy some Super Likes this week so I can message any pretty face I want to and I will be glad to tell you how they work in another part of this series.
What else is going on?
I joined OK Cupid and they have the same system. Apparently all the dating apps are owned by the same company and they want you to keep using the app so they’re all set up like a casino.
How do you win then?
In a casino, if you put a bet on twenty tables, most will lose, but some will win.
I saw a Ray Dalio video on YouTube that explained this phenomenon, but the casinos are betting that most people will lose and a small percentage will win.
We have to play it like that
We spread our bets with those SuperLikes to avoid fake matches and to win a small percentage of real people we will actually get to talk to and date from playing our chips, our coveted, expensive SuperLikes which we buy on top of paying $29.99 a month on Tinder platinum.
Learn to have more options than just Tinder, man!
Yesterday I interacted with really attractive women in real life.
Did I get anywhere?
No, but I am still playing the Casino.
What you want to think about when you talk to women in real life
Some are more sensitive than others, stay away from any trouble.
Nice women exist. Seek and you shall find.
Don’t be upset at getting rejected. Smile at it. Don’t give in to your fears.
Get used to feeling embarrassed, this is really your super power!
Practice makes perfect. Athletic and military mindsets work. IE David Goggins.
It might take a LONG time for you to practice the above and get used to it
And please clap for the article if you liked it. Tell others your views about it below at the comment section and I’ll see you in Part 4!
Thanks for reading!
If you want to, give me a tip! I will use it for a gym membership so I can get perfect abs for my Tinder pics or I’ll get a Matcha latte at the café since I am staving off coffee. Café money helps me write interesting blog posts and helps me be social with people since I am a gosh darn nerd, so one thousand and one Thank You’s in advance!

Smile all day and all night at the beautiful people
I’ve learned is to smile. You will freak any stranger/girl out if you don’t smile. Creepy happens to me all the time and usually I’m the one that’s creeping.
You can also apply this to sales. I did it all weekend at Foco Comic Con and have cash in my pocket and some dollars in my PayPal.
The PUA guru there is a big stud with a broken nose and he lays it out for me and you on how to send text Tinder messages while he’s living in Miami, Florida.
I believe his stuff works but some tweaking will definitely be involved over the next couple of weeks for me to figure out Tinder and regular texting.
Social media game for everyone
I will probably try what I’ve learned from Playing Fire with Facebook and Instagram. You know what I mean? I’m bored.
It’s a match so I un-match
But these scammers are really good at matching up with me on Tinder and I don’t know what that’s all about.
It’s all about who you know
Have you ever seen someone you know on Twitter?
I have. I might message them anyway.
We’ve gone Platinum an it’s not the die antwoord (the Answer in south African)
I have Tinder Platinum and you get like several “super likes” like 5 and you need more and then you’re going to pay $1.50 per. I could go down to Gold next month and just learn how to send messages that get a reply. YouTube University it is.
Tinder or not to Tinder
Embarrassing myself on the street and saying hi to women all day long is on my agenda and I really get fearful and shy. One guy, James Marshall, has great vids on this. You have to wave at your prey like an idiot, smile and say you look wonderful and introduce yourself. So simple, right? No, it’s hard!
Some resources that I’m going to start checking out this week.
And please clap for the article if you liked it. Tell others your views about it below at the comment section and I’ll see you in Part 3!

Okay, I conversed with some foreign women on Tinder and then found a forum on Reddit about scammers there, and yeah, it sucked to realize I was talking to scammers.
Ya see, the conversation over text pulls you right into the fray and pulls on your love, lust, and heartstrings because the pics the scammers steal and use are damn attractive.
Then the more you message the girl, the more pics “she” (she or he?) will send back to you. Then I turn around and sent some of myself.
That was a bad move
Because they might use my pics to build fake profiles.
The scammer will keep asking you questions so they can learn a lot about you a put it on a fake profile.
Mo! Mo! Affiliate money!
I did not experience this, but they also will send you affiliate links, like Forex or something, so they can make some cash off you.
So how do you know if you are getting scammed?
You can never know. I am still thinking about an intense conversation from this woman who I wanted to plan a date with.
She said she wanted to get to know me better before we went on a date.
So I talked to her a little until I dropped her like a hot potato.
It’s messed up, man! It’s totally messed up!
They say ‘hey’ to you when you’re a match or you ‘like’ them on Tinder and they will talk to you first.
They answer your message, they converse with you, then you say, “Do you have WhatsApp?” And scammers apparently like WhatsApp, a lot, so I’m not going to do WhatsApp anymore!
They don’t know English “good”
She uses words that normal people would not use. IE they don’t know English, well.
They will also get frustrated
One lady sent me too many numbers for her phone number and said it was a Hong Kong number. This lady called me stupid when I could not put her phone number in the WhatsApp.
Area of the Codes
If the number is not local for when you switch to WhatsApp, you know it is suspect.
During working hours they are available online
Well, their job is to scam, which is 24/7.
Should I use Tinder at all, Evan?
Yes. Learn how to use it correctly. There 1001 YouTube videos to watch about how to use it.
The take aways?
But I think the thing you really need to think about is phone numbers that are not local. Like why would they have one that’s not local in your area? Come on. It’s 2022.
Also, if English is their second language, look for cues that they are acting like a nice normal person. One word answers and off topic replies are suspect in my book.

All For Yoo and Me
I have been to this wonderful restaurant more than once, now!
They have combo plates that are right up my alley with traditional Chinese dishes with fried rice and an egg roll for $10.95 to $11.95.
So far I've had the Mongolian Beef, Kung Pao Chicken (both spicy) and the Beef and Broccoli, which has become my "go to". The egg roll is extra crispy and comes with sweet red sauce and you can get it in pork or vegetable.
A Traditional Boba for $4.95 at Tra Ling's Cafe in Boulder, CO. GoshDarnBlog.com 2022.
When there I also make sure I buy a Traditional or Green Tea Boba for $4.95.
They serve your dish fast if you sit down to eat there, which is what I do. Mostly in like five minutes or less!
The restaurant has ample space for customers. If you come here on a date you will find it comfortable and quiet. Red paper lanterns populate the ceiling and their is even a red heart theme happening on the light fixtures. I asked them if the red lanterns and hearts were used for Feng shui, but I was told the color red more represents "luck."
When you enter you will see a room on your right that has a spinning tray for large groups who can share what they ordered with each other. This is a plus for me and makes Tra Ling's Oriental Café a special place.
I've sat in the restaurant a number of times by myself and I will say the the yellow walls remind me of Backrooms videos on YouTube, which is funny to me, but it's no problem.
The restaurant is clean from top to bottom with lots of space between the tables and they have convenient electric plugs in the walls if I need it.
Ample seating at Tra Ling's and Yoo and Me. GoshDarnBlog,com 2022.
Yoo and Me Noodle House is also a part of Tra Ling's location. If you need a landmark this Chinese restaurant is in the DMV building off Iris in Boulder.
The hours are 11:00 AM to 9:30 PM Monday through Saturday and they're closed on Sunday. You can order online for delivery or pickup.
If you visit their website you will see their menu is vast. They even have Vietnamese dishes.

Visiting this place was different
Terracotta now has a new location and a totally different theme. The miracle of nature is in full effect at this plant cafe because, ya see, it’s full of vegetation.
Shrub, greenery, flora... oh my!
When you enter look to your right and you’ll see a wall full of foliage and a wooden chaise lounge sitting at the bottom of it looking like it all belongs in an uptown community garden.
Looking at the hanging plants coming from down from the rafters I noticed one that looked like a large platter, holding two plants, not just one.
If you want to buy a potted plant, a hanging plant or a plant close to resembling an indoor jungle tree stop by here to browse. You can even order a plant like you would a pizza and get it delivered!
The Café is something special
Potted vines sat at the top of coffee bar and hung down through lights. A double fountain of rough marble pillars, near the window, reminded me of what they found on the moon in the movie 2001, trickling water down into a rock garden.
The sound of the tranquil fountain made me notice how quiet it was in this café. Nothing like the other ones you find up Pearl St. There were no cell phone beeps, no loud people talking about their life no entrepreneurial ideas being spouted and talked about. Just peace, quiet and plant life even with the funky hip hop music coming from behind the café bar.
What a great place to just be! I thought to myself, sitting there at one of the many small tables with a white marble styled top and one large iron leg resembling more the 1920s than the 2020s.
Order a drink and take it all in
The café bar serves coffee, tea, elixirs, sparkling water and then there was Wild Monkey Chocolate and a donut brand I want to try next time from their small cooler.
Off the menu I ordered the Geometry, bean coffee brewed just for me in one of those Chemex brewers.
The barista, who said he was also the owner, talked to me casually about how it was not sacred geometry, but I think with all the plants around this place you can always be reminded of fractals, can ya dig?
What else happened there?
A dog was asleep on a cot, napping under a table of plants for sale, not interested at all in greeting any of the customers. There were just a few patrons who browsed through the store carrying a small metal basket by their side where they could place their succulents to buy and bring home.
Hanging plant supplies, planters, pots, plant holders, plant tables, fabric plant skirts and even plant jars are some of the things you can find here. Postcards, stickers and mugs were sold at the cash register like most stores around here have been prone to do.
What’s the take away?
Unique and wonderful is the only way to describe Terracotta plant café on Pearl. The place is definitely a café experience you will surely enjoy because of its fabulous green and clean atmosphere.

And gives a big middle finger to Modernism
“I have,” he says with emphasis. “In that direction I have excelled everything.”
For George, painting is more about symbolism than anything else.
“Appliances or cars er (pause) I think they don’t have symbolism… Like a can of Coke has no symbolism. A cup has symbolism. A can doesn’t. For artistic purposes, if you put anything like that… just spoils your painting…”
I ask him if he knows what an NFT is and he replies, “Huh…What’s that?”
George is forty-eight years old, from Lafayette and drives into town almost every day to draw in coffee shops. He tells me his angle is “the coffee shop.” Since he was a teenager he’s been going there to learn art rather than a school.
The man sitting with me at OZO Coffee in Boulder, Colorado, is soft spoken and intelligent. In fact he’s so soft spoken I’m wondering if my recorder will pick up his voice over the funk music and the banging sounds the baristas are making behind the counter.
On this hot August day George is hunched over in a black t-shirt. His dark hair parted to the side. In the chair next to him is a weathered leather bag with a strap that makes him look like a professional when walking down the sidewalks of this town, but in his bag are pencils and paper.
He sold me two drawings for five bucks last week and I’ve been carrying them around in my laptop bag. We’d had a short conversation about visibility or how my blog doesn’t get any hits, like he wasn’t going to do the interview with me because of it.
I was introduced to him several years before Covid and saw some of his paintings hanging up at Avante Coffee on Walnut. He had nudes, which I thought were cool and something you don’t see often in Boulder.
Courtesy George Dessev "The Funeral of Robin Hood"
Another time I saw his self-portrait, a striking painting, but something every famous painter has done, like Van Gogh for instance. George’s self-portrait looked similar to portraits from several hundred years ago, like you would see on the walls whenever you visit a well-known museum.
Dessev was thinking of subject matter no one knows about when he created his 36" by 40" art piece "The Funeral of Robin Hood," which will be available for sale at The Trident Bookseller and Café at his month long hanging in September 2022.
George said about Little John in his painting, "He's kind of a midget... Like Friar Tuck you can recognize."
Also you can see minstrels singing about Robin Hood's immortality in the furthest part of the picture.
There are several painters of note he’s studied with; Quang Ho and Ron Hicks at the Denver Art Students League.
His Show in September 2022
For the month of September George Dessev will have his paintings hung and for sale in The Trident Caféat 940 Pearl St, Boulder, CO, 80302.
He does not have a website you can visit so you’re going to have to go over to the café yourself to see them all.

Read this moose story with some fun moose facts added
Moose
In Summit County, Colorado, Back in January of 2022, a Moose fell into a house through a window well.
Antlers and all, it found itself in a basement and broke a pool table there.
Frightened it went to the bathroom all over the carpet and scratched its antlers and hooves against the walls.
"Bored" Dogs are Bad Dogs! Why conventional dog toys aren't enough... Try The Bullibone!
A team of rescuers tried to woo it up some stairs, but in the end they had to use a trank and make it nap. Then 10 people lifted it up the stairwell, but unfortunately, they had to saw off the antlers to get it out of the dwelling, but a moose at this age loses his antlers naturally anyway they reported.
The windowell was covered in snow and the moose was munching on some shrubs or plants when it fell in and broke into the house.
The poor thing’s antlers were left by the rescuers under the christmas tree for the owners of the abode as a gift from the harrowing experience.
Did you know Elk and Moose are the same? WildSweden.com knows this is confusing and they laid it out for all of us.
Fun Moose Facts
The Scientific name is “Alces alces.” There are more moose in Sweden than anywhere else in the world. The predators of Moose are humans, wolves and bears.
Moose in European
“The Swedish word for Moose is Älg,” WildSweden.com explains on their website.
They also say American Elk and European Elk are different and have the pics to prove it.
“European Elk, also called European Moose, which is the same species as the American Moose. This is not the same species as the American Elk.” from “Facts About the Moose”at WildSweden.com.
Vic’s Again has Expressive Espresso Drinks in Boulder, Colorado
Start your mornings here
Vic’s Again has a corner off Iris and 30th in Boulder, Colorado where the neighborhood Walmart used to be. Remember that? All that trouble to move in and then they move right out! Well, now Case Vetinary Clinic is in that spot, but Vic’s is around the corner on the same side of the street as The Cork restaurant.
They like jazz there and you’ll hear Ella Fitzgerald and Ray Charles over the speakers when you sit down. Every second Sunday from 10 AM to 12PM they have an improv jazz jam with musicians and they even have scat singing and during the summer they do it all out on the front patio.
The umbrella’s outside are provided by Allegro Coffee, so you can have a proper “shady” experience. In the mornings people like to stop by with their dogs outside and sit.
Inside there’s some interesting scrap metal jazz art, a scene of different small statue musicians playing. There’s a large mirror on the wall, too, so you can check yourself in the morning as your get coffee on your way to work.
In the men’s room is a large poster of Dizzy Gillespie with his cheeks puffed out and his closed eyes in meditation. This poster has been their forever. I would know.
Vic’s Espresso used to have several locations, but not no more.
The Vic’s Logo has always been eye-catching with a funny face and frizzy hair and then a frizzy expresso cup to match, all in a funny comedy line drawing black and white cartoon.
They have scones and croissants for food along with oatmeal. One of the specials when I was there was a Popcorn Latte, which I was tempted to try, but haven’t yet.
I discovered you can even get a free refill with your drip coffee, which is way cool.
In the parking lot, on the Vic’s Again side, you can see some fancy vehicles with their owners stopping by for their coffee fix. Tesla, Porsche, and all those new SUV EVs are popular.
Vic’s Again is a coffeeshop pillar out here in the Boulder community and you will be sure to add it to your morning routine once you get the hang of it in there. Otherwise they wouldn’t be calling it Vic’s …AGAIN!
BOULDER - Funky, hippy and entrepreneur-y — whatever you’re looking for on your next Vakay Boulder, Colorado has lots of what you want
Disclaimer: This article mentions drugs and alcohol.
Mountains, tundra and more mountains are what you see when you drive into Boulder from DIA, Denver International Airport.
Known as the Flatirons; many a painter, artist and dreamer has viewed them with a creative eye, all in appreciation of beautiful Boulder, Colorado.
Need a quick coffee? We recommend starting your Boulder adventure at The Trident Cafe. Did we forget to mention this cozy coffee place has been here for more than forty years?
Here, you can talk intellectual with the locals or go inside and read your book.
Surf the net on your laptop and drink your tea from The Trident’s top shelf, an impressive selection of green, black, herbal, peppermint, hibiscus, red berries and more. Enjoy your tea iced during the summer (along with the coffee!) and even get a refill for just a dollar.
Trident has the location, location, location, so just relax, sitting at their outside tables and maybe watch the sun go down later. Hopefully you’ll get lucky and experience a summer breeze with light rain. The thunder and lightening crashing along the mountain range. Summers in BOCO on the street of Pearl as we like to call it (it’s really Pearl St.) can be quite magical and even un-predictable if you mindfully allow it to be.
The walking mall is center of the universe in Boulder!
Now, that your thirst is quenched maybe it’s time to get something colder like a Gelato Boy. There’s two locations of this tasty gelato shop on either side of Pearl St.’s walking mall and In-between you’ll even find a Ben and Jerry’s.
Psychic shopping and new age
Next to Ben and Jerry’s is a peculiar place where you’ll walk down the stairs and find a selection of occult, psychic, Buddhist, religious texts, essays and books--The Lighthouse Bookstore. You may spend an hour there wondering if you need to buy some incense or a small Buddha statue to take back to your altar at your mountain home, but there’s worst problems to have, we think at least!
The Show
By the time the afternoon rolls around the Court House lawn will be bustling with locals and tourists alike because it’s Wednesday and that means live music on the walking mall.
Every year Downtown Boulder brings a slew of local bands belting out their newest or even classic tunes each Wednesday Eve throughout the summer months.
Big Red has restaurants in town
Big Red F has acquired lots of new locations around town as of late, so you should try eating at The Post. Whether Happy Hour or not you will find the hardiest of fare. There’s a rumor going around that the staff flew around the country looking for authentic Americana recipes from other states, so you won’t find better fried chicken locally than here! Also try their Howdy Pilsner for a light beer.
Hiking in Boulder is easy
You’ll never believe this, but at the foot of the mountain on Pearl St., is a short trail where you can have fantastic view of the whole city (or hamlet as we’ve heard some people like to call Boulder!?). It’s called The Peoples’ Crossing and once you climb up the rocks and get to the top you can sit on a bench and take a rest. Soak it all in and take pics on your iPhone. Upload them to all your social media accounts and be sure to share this article, too! The social share button is at the top of this here blog post you’re reading, so click it, sista!
Recreational edibles for reals
On your way to The Peoples’ Crossing be sure to stop at Verde, a local rec dispensary, cuz weed’s legal here, bra!
Personally, we like the brand called Wyld and they come in 10 mg’s per gummy in a pack of 10, 100 mgs total, which is more than enough for even a space-is-the-place-cannabis-veteran, but be forewarned — edibles are strong like Hercules, so don’t blame us if you start to feel funny! This is normal anyway and lots of times a 911 call is not needed.
Disclaimer: Marijuana is real easy to look up on the web on the Google search, so go read a few legit blog posts about it before you ever do it OR just ask your knowledgeable and helpful budtender at your local dispensary any questions you have. They have been trained thoroughly and are way more knowledgeable than all of us here at GoshDarnBlog.com.
Free pool hall games
The day’s winding down but the fun is not over. Find free pool tables at the Sundown Saloon until 10pm and also visit Press Play, where children are allowed to play arcade games until dusk, when it changes over into a full on club.
But if bars are not your thing try…
Two museums in town
If you’re bored the Muse Museum and also BMOCA, Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art are two places you can go to. They have events, programs and exhibits promoting only the localist of artists for you to learn about. There peruse their paintings, sculpture, mixed media or immersive art.
On a Thursday, Friday or Saturday (or almost any day, really) you will see large crowds and families with children wading in the Boulder Creek.
Near the Boulder Library you will find all types taking advantage of these natural Creekside pools of water. Sometimes you can see green headed ducks having a nice time in there as well.
The park is where it's at!
Wade over to Eben G. Fine Park and walk down the steps that lead directly into the creek waters. Almost right at the the head of the mountain, here you can find hiking trails, green grass to sun tan on and an opportunity to “Wim Hoff it” and do a cold plunge in the creek water. For better health we’ve heard three minutes is all you need in the icy cold waters to get a full body effect. Warm yourself up after by jogging down the trail and toweling off in this spacious park.
Nightlife in town is on fire
There’s another view that’s great in this cozy little mountain town and that’s the nightlife. There’s too many places to mention, so just follow your ears to where the techno is blaring out the front doors, but if you need a different scene, bluegrass and bands can be found at places like The Velvet Elk Lounge or try the venue right off Pearl St. called the Boulder Theater. Even the Trident, which we mentioned earlier, has events every night outside in their back patio area.
Need a quieter time?
Boulder attracts lots of Buddhist types and you can find plenty of lectures and talks about new age stuff. For meditation look up The Shambhala Center,Naropa University and even the Unity Church off Folsom St. Otherwise check out the Boulder Psychic Institute for interesting and far out classes.
Boulder’s got lots more than all this going on, but these ideas should keep you busy when you venture onto Pearl St. to see what’s going down during the hot summer months! What do you like about Boulder?
