If you think of the Blue Havaiyee cocktail as a gay man, it’s really not a very good analogy.

Sure, he knows how to dress well and even has a funny little whistle he uses to attract attention, but he never really gets the guy of his dreams. He’s also kind of oblivious—he doesn’t realize that he’s being mistreated or ignored by everyone around him until they tell him.

And then there’s his drink-making skills: he’ll spend three hours mixing up a drink that looks like it’s going to be great, but comes out tasting like patchouli oil mixed with kool-aid and sour grapes that someone threw up in his mouth.

So basically, if you’re looking for a good night with someone who will put up with your bad jokes and ignore your annoying friends and make you feel like you’re actually important, go find yourself another gay man.
