I feel so shitty right now.
I wrote a script for a film class I’m taking with Andrea. The idea is to write a script and make it. Then we will premiere it on April 26. The script I wrote is about a socially awkward guy, Gabe, who goes out on the town with an overzealous friend, Clint. After watching how Clint interacts with the ladies, Gabe dreams up ways to apply Clint’s lessons. One of the dream sequences involves Gabe approaching a very beautiful lady that possesses some traits you would only find on a man. After walking up to her Gabe asks her “Fuck me if I’m wrong, but haven’t we met before?”. At this point the lady responds in a deep Male voice, something about remembering a nice little man pussy like you. I don’t recall the exact line right now. Gabe realizing the beautiful lady is really a man snaps back to reality. That dream sequence end and he moves on. Well, tonight we had our 2nd round of auditions and someone came out for the drag queen. This guy was A drag queen. He was with another friend who was interested in reading for Gabe so I described both the parts and handed them the script to look over. After reading the script the friend came in to read. Afterwards, I asked if his friend was going to read for the drag queen part. He told us he wasn’t because the description of the drag queen didn’t match. I responded that we are pretty open on the look. He then told us the real reason. This person is widely known for the drag character he plays. When he is in character he doesn’t leave it and takes it seriously. Basically it boils down to the words I wrote offended this guy. I know my sense of humor is offensive to some people. But I have always thought of it as offending people who don’t get me or are way too uptight for me to give a shit. But this time I have offended someone’s lifestyle. I feel extremely embarrassed and shitty right now. Shitty isn’t even a good word to describe it. But I can’t think of anything else right now.
