My name is Brad. I am a writer, I am awkward in social situations, and I spend a lot of time in coffee shops trying to escape all of the terribly distracting things I find at home (video games, movies, tv, cats, comics, vitamin water, robots, etc.). I rotate amongst local coffee shops throughout the week so that no single location becomes too familiar with my presence. Spending any appreciable amount of time in one place is bound to make you privy to the occasional odd situation, but I have come to believe that coffee shops are breeding grounds for weird. The following is my account of the wonderfully weird and horribly awkward situations I have encountered.

“Yeah, I Guess Kiki Sounds Asian, Too.”

Woman on Phone: Did you get that book of baby names I gave you?… Oh… Though Mika almost sounds like a dog or a cat or something.  Like a made-up name or a little Asian name… Yeah, CeeCee is a good one too.  It kinda goes with Sophia.  I wonder if you could spell it with a K.

Hopefully something coffee related...
