The Bad Always Brings Out the Good Missed Connection – “last night’s Comet Ping Pong mob”


5037 Connecticut Ave, NW. Please consider visiting Comet Ping Pong soonest to show some support.

“Dear PoPville,

Yesterday I was finishing dinner at Comet Pizza when that large mob of pizzagaters showed up blocking the entrance, yelling at people on the sidewalk.

You were the guy escorting customers through the crazy mob to their cars or the bus stop. My dinner date ditched me.

You walked me to my car while I held on to your arm. You were hilarious and it eased my anxiety from being screamed at.

On the way, two men ran up to block my path, and you quoted a bible verse and brushed past them. I asked if you were a police officer but you said you are a scientist. Wow I was impressed.

You were tall, beautiful eyes, and deep voice in a flannel shirt and soft jacket. You were a true gentleman. I would love to retry a walk together on a more peaceful night. If you are reading this and remember me, tell me which animal was on your pin.”

Ed. Note: If this is you, please email [email protected] so I can put you in touch with OP. PoPville is not affiliated with either party, please proceed with any potential connection at your own risk using caution as you would any online encounter. For those curious about past missed connections, many have been made and when possible I’ll try to update when/if more are made.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
