The Curse (Save Me)

Curse of what? Being a nice guy?
Couldn't tell you.

I'm undecided as to whether I'd even call myself that anymore.
I think too often people use "nice guy" to mean "not a jackass."
That isn't fair. Some people put a lot of work (and twice as much restraint) into being kind.
There's also plenty of value to it. Nice guys don't always finish last, contrary to the idiom.

Public Servants

I got harassed by a police officer again tonight. Walked up about a foot from my face and yelled at me, "STEP AWAY!" because his partner had basically whispered it outside a loud club.

Was I drunk? No. Was I disorderly? No. Was I interfering with their attempt to shakedown another patron of this club? No.
