Vexed in the City

We started a new weekly column this morning about being young and single in the Triad. (Yes, I lose out on both counts.)Called Vexed in the City, this week's column is written by staffer Amy Dominello. It's outstanding.

But now, I have bigger problems. The club has become more crowded, filled with young men who apparently think it's all right to grab you from behind and start "dancing" with you.

I've been a victim of this in the past, but it just seems over the top for someone pushing 30 to be surreptitiously groped by an 18-year-old.

Most of the rest of our night was spent giving each other the "help me" look and pulling each other away from these gentlemen. If we weren't at a dance club, I would have used my pepper spray on them and called the cops.

Right out of the box, it's a hit. The online version has comments enabled, and she's gotten a dozen or so already, not counting several e-mails sent directly to her.

Interested in trying your hand at it. Send ideas or submissions here.

Didn't an article just like this run in Triad Style a few years ago? It was funnier the first time around.
