Motel Exotica Alternate Ending

Improved Essays
As a result of waiting for my marriage to end I was waiting for a hooker, both of which would end up fucking me over. I didn’t see how falling out of love with someone required a financial penalty. Porn, donuts, affairs, you were bastardized for enjoying life’s pleasures. Now here, in the rancid calcium encrusted bar of Motel Exotica, they had a way of making me feel dirty, even though I’d just come from paying my taxes. I leave half an ounce of liquid in my drink so the female bartender won’t talk to me. Unfortunate-ly, since I am the only breathing pulse at the bar she feels compelled to keep me company. I turn my head to the jukebox and pretend to be absorbed by the chubby, half-naked woman grinding up against its me-tallic covering. “Hey stud. Who you waiting for?” She smirks at me. “Come on humour me, I’m so bored.” She emphasizes the end of her …show more content…
Leave me alone. Her sticky perfume invades my nostrils. I realize I have to take action if I want her to leave. “Can I get another rye and coke?” I say dryly to my antagonist. I force myself to look down at her. I let my upper lip curl back, trying to indicate my disgust for her middle-aged stomach rolls, merci-lessly wedged inside her leopard-print leotard. Her limbs deflate as she slumps back, dejected, behind the bar to fix my drink. They send a pain of hurt to the inside of my stomach. Where the fuck is Nancy? The little twenty-something nicotine addict I’d been seeing for over a month was late, as per her usual GenX entitlement. Her smoky breath made me think of Mrs. Robinson from The Graduate. We were essentially the characters in reverse, except I don’t think she ever graduated anything. Nancy struts into the bar, the click of her Louboutins trailing behind her. Ironically, I know this brand of shoe because I was watching a documentary on SugarBabies. I am overpaying Nancy. “Hey.” She flashes a white key card in front of my face. Pain. They don’t like white

    I agree with Renee Engeln’s article when discussing the problem with how people negatively talk about themselves. The first topic Renee Engeln talks about is how often people express how large or in this case fat they feel. She writes about why should that matter? Why do we have the urge to tell people how we feel about ourselves and throw it out there in the open?…

    The usual rancid smell of cigarette smoke, alcohol and other things of which I don't want to name, hit my nostrils has soon as I enter the bar. Used the familiar stench, I don't gag or choke like most of the teenagers that, unfortunately, find themselves here. I find my usual seat in the back left corner of the bar, farthest away from public eye. I casually walk there, while taking off my black leather jacket. No matter how hard I try to blend into the crowd, I will still be thrown the accusing looks.…

    Nannie Doss Serial Killers are all around us. “The term ‘serial killings’ means a series of three or more killings, not less than one of which was committed within the United States, having common characteristics such as to suggest the reasonable possibility that the crimes were committed by the same actor or actors” (FBI.com). Not all serial killers are the same. Although, they do share similar characteristics; “arson, antisocial behavior, torturing small animals, childhood abuse, drug and alcohol abuse, poor family life, voyeurism, intelligence and shiftlessness” (9 Warnings of a Serial Killer article). Serial killers also follow these guidelines: “Quantity.…

    The book is formatted in colloquial language, and it uses slang and intense language from the author’s point of view. The most complex word choice that Sheff ever uses is rare and pertains more to drug use and medical treatments. However, if the audience doesn’t know these terms, it’s not difficult to infer or use context clues. Also, the author decided to write using past and present tense (in the book’s contextual setting). As mentioned in the summary, Nic describes his life before drug use and the relapse in San Francisco, during, and after.…
