BAD DATES. :(

i have a date to eat buffalo wings tonight. i predict it will be awesome

Where do I meet new babes?

jon when u call after bad daet at 1:20 am i get scared because phone ringing then = you are dying/hurt/in trouble in my sleepy brain :( stop scaring me! i am sorry re: date though :(

start a co-ed naked drum-circle society

Where do I meet new babes?

reiterated

all my recent dates have been terrible

bookstores

reading in bars?

I can't say I've ever really been on a date qua date, with maybe an exception or two

get new girlfriends

i met the last crazy one while reading in a bar O_o

what is so terrible about these datez?

i never go on dates. a little lonely, maybe, but at least no bad ones!

reading in bars?

^^^this does not work for me u_u

I'm not single but I hear Trader Joe's is good. I sometimes see this VERY attractive air hostess or flight attendant or whatever they're called now in Trader Joe's but like I said I'm not single. but if you're ever in the Emeryville area, you should stop by and maybe say hi.

dateideas.xls

my last date was incredible

of course im having trouble scheduling a follow up

on point re: trader joes. i think i discussed this on some other thread

we should have double date bad dates

then perhaps we can trade off in the middle of the evening if things arent going well

problem with reading is it can tend to make you look preoccupied / hard to approach

tag team

a girl actually asked me what i was reading in a bar the other night but it was a copy of spin someone had left there u_u

"do you...like amy winehouse, too?"

i got a date once while reading at a bar, though that was not my intention.

but, quality of date = low

i've read books at bars, people asked me what i'm reading, seems like a good conversation starter.

seriously: bookstores.

lol @ winehouse

i think sometimes when reading in bar it is too dark and then i am so focused on book i don't even notice if anyone would by some tiny chance be checking me out.

You should walk around with your headphones on staring at the ground. People will think you're mysterious and come up and ask what you're listening to.

I shouldn't be giving these away for free.

i am almost always checking out girls who are reading but it's usually because i want to know what they're reading

also their butts

I posted a missed connection the other day and the wrong person replied to it!

2 missed connection posts in a week = ENNUI

</katethesaint>

The only books I read are technical books, highbrow music books or bad scifi paperbacks.

Also I hate "literary" girls.... except Laurel who is a bro.

wait, you read?

bad dates do suck
the going-out kind and the fruit kind
i'm sorry yr date was no good, jon
but i really love the indiana jones image!

worst kind of date: surprise date

how does that even work?

most of the people you meet at bars turn out to be assholes.

the only things that worked for me are a)being set up by friends and b) the internet

knocked out cold in broad daylight, wake up bound to a chair in a cute little out of the way thai place across the table from some marketing assistant.

xp

wish I could find the lyrics to The Young Adults' (80's Prov, RI band) song called Meeting Girls :( :( :(

internet = height of dating dnw at this point

"friend" says "hey let's get dinner" and then at some point you realize they think it is daet when you just thought you were just casually going to eat w/ a bro (i.e. they insist on picking you up, take you to fancy restaurant, insist on paying, etc.)
xposts

oh i see

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ y y y that is so bad

yeah internet is sucky. i am scared of it. also scared of talking to people in public, so my options are really limited here. :(

schef it is bad when you dnw to be on daet w/ that persoN!!!

jon do you get to take classes for free at nyu? audit an undergrad art history class. there will be lots of babes and little competition.

awkward!
i would flee scene
xpost

it is so awful so so so so awful cos then they're also your friend so it's like how to let down without like causing huge 3 alarm fire in relationship argh boxcar no no no

xxxxxxxpost that seems more the kind of thing a tricky guy would do than vice versa

xxxpost talking to people in public is fine

oh yeah taking a class, that's a good one

admittedly i came out of a long hermit phase a few years back so grain of salt

hard to flee when in town w/out good transport and they insisted on driving you there! hahhahaa asldgjk awkward! also random acquaintance was working at said restaurant and like, clearly thought we were on a date.

that has resulted in a couple of regrettable make-outs because i was completely confused as to how to create a diversionary situation to get myself out to escapeland basically.

internet can be ok! my last internet stalkee / crush turned out to be really awesome!

also, he is going to be my date @ a GAY WEDDING later this summer!

haha oh ally... yeah i have also made out a few times because of awkward situations w/ no escape plan!

xxxpost talking to people in public is fine

HAVE TO BE MATRICULATED

i fear using the internet. it seems like giving up somehow

well i mean two year relationship i do not regret because of internet so hey

IT IS THE 21ST CENTURY AND ALL

xxpost you seemed fairly adept at it on saturday!

oh man that reminds me i am not even taking daet to sister's wedding. yay loser middle sister!

"I would have asked him out, but he smelled like tacos."

TALKING TO PEOPLE IS NOT SCARY. NEW YORK IS SO DUMB ABOUT THIS.

THEN you have to have the "i'm not ready for this kind of relationship...it's not you, it's me, let's just be friends" conversation.

wau dating sucks guys!

making-out b/c of lack of other ideas is always a good way to avoid awkwardness.

lol ok smelling like tacos is an almost as weird excuse for not picking up a lady as the one i heard earlier!

xxpost you seemed fairly adept at it on saturday!

was strongo the not-daet daet?

Maybe I should just go to noise/avant/dance music shows in Manhattan and find girls who are into the same stuff as I am.

ha ha ha :(

if not smelling like tacos is a criterion for getting dates i'd never get a date

xxpost talking in public, foolz

^^i went to college who was a serial surprise-dater

he would always ask female friends if they wanted to go check out the symphony/choir/whatever concert and then suggest they get dinner at the cute little swedish restaurant accross the street from the fine arts performance hall. he'd dress real nice and occasionally the girls would be so caught off guard they'd be in a sweatshirt or something because they were just thinking they were walking from thier dorm to dinner and a cheap concert.

the worst part was that it was a small campus and he's always do the same routine! the girls usually knew eachother!

let's all just accept death and move on. i think we'd be happier.

STOP BELIEVIN'

i think everyone needs to take their standards down a couple notches

WHERE DO I FIND INTERNET DATE?

OKCUPID?

I think a big thing about not talking to people is that there's all these other douchebags around watching you try to pull.

oh man that reminds me i am not even taking daet to sister's wedding. yay loser middle sister!

^^unless you are in a LTR having no date in your situation is a v v good idea. you're family/bridesmaid etc. whoever you bring will just be getting drunk, awkwardly overdressed, getting drunk by himself in a sea of strangers. then you'll have to explain how wierd you family is for days afterwards.

see jon has said this to me, too, but um, after my last, uh, disaster, i don't think i wanna go down any further.

I think that my standards are plenty low, thank you!

xpost hahahah

let's all just accept death and move on. i think we'd be happier.

Paradoxically, that's when romantic success will start to roll in.

guys two of my surprise dates were ilxors btw

you dudes all need to take some social lessons or something

NAME NAMES

. . .

oh btw guys here's my one piece of advice for this thread:

do not meet someone at the local bar you frequent, like, three nights out of the week or more

just don't

xxxpost ned?

ned and louis jagger

Honestly, arts world "networking" seems to be a good way to get dates.

*waits for bell_labs to tell me I am wrong*

don't make train joke, don't make train joke, don't make train joke

xpost

btw i would like date w/ girl at top of thread.

I have a bocce date for uh sometime in early August. Realize this is slightly unspecific but hey I'm open in August.

Now it better just not be bad.

tehresa, aren't weddings supposed to be good places to find dates?

really excited for gay wedding, tho! i will take public homo smooching date opportunity, thanks! and it is likely to be v. casual & outdoors & boozy and yay

the last guy i met at a wedding had the most retarded tattoo i had ever seen (WHICH WAS HIDDEN AT WEDDING SO I HAD NO IDEA) and then wouldn't shut up about new age bullshit on our date.

i asked sister about groomsmen and she said they are all married or dnw :(

x-post jon, better from the guy's point of view than the girl's. on account of all the gays and hot chicks.

xxpost
Did he have a sensitive guy ponytail?

i got stood up last night. ;_;

that was a first for me.

augh worst

grad skool was super good for dates
thesis writing not good for dates
xpost
does ok cupid even still exist??
xpost
that sucks, k

no! there was no way of knowing this guy was into crazy sensitive guy bullshit at all otherwise i would've been dnw. he also waited until date to reveal the fact that his last name was W0NKA

okay how is that anything less than awesome

guys sparkmatch was really the best

hahaha!
xpost

i met a guy here who exclusivley dated women on vacation that he met while surfing.

xp lol w0nka

jess when you are a lady you need to take into account gentleman caller's last names esp if you are deciding between multiple ppl.

and i'm sorry but ally w0nka

I MISS SPARKSMATCH

OMG ALLY WONKA

i mean uh W0NKA

though i blame sparkmatch for summer of bummers guy eh...

yeah i dunno why i'm googleproofing that

wtf is "sparksmatch"

ok it's happy hour and taco time. later dudes.

tehresa, aren't weddings supposed to be good places to find dates?

I've always heard this. On account of the fact that everyone is feeling insane and given access to unlimited alcohol.

sparkmatch was a social networking site started by thespark before it became cliffsnotes 2.0

okcupid is where i found dude who will be my wedding gaydate (cuet CT metalhead music writer dude)

i'm pretty sure sparkmatch was bought out, then the ppl who made sparkmatch went on to develop okcupid

i thought it was when you hooked up with someone drunk on sparks

"your kisses taste like pez"

i should have tried to make a "sparksmatch" in the vip d-bags area on saturday

i want lots of drugs and alcohol.

good 2nd date = mustard tasting

is that a euphemism?

i'll never tell

"your kisses taste like dijon"

gross

i shudder to think what w0nka's tattoo was

gobstopping

it said "destiny" in swirly gay-ass letters, i kid you not, it's like he got airbrushed at the t-shirt booth in the elizabeth mall or something.

haha

god i am so glad i dont have any tattoos

haha
ok now we need to know where it was i think

^strongo otm

THIGH

tho guys always like chix with awful tattoos

i have basically had hundreds and hundreds of terrible dates, it's probably good that i was removed from the market

i shudder to think what stupid stuff i would have thought was "poetic" or "important" to permanently scar myself with when i was 20

xxpost yeah i know

tho guys always like chix with awful tattoos

-- bell_labs

RONG

i knew a girl who had an ex who had a tattoo of the boy scout fleur de lis, but inside it was the dave matthew's band dancing thing logo.

i do vaguely regret never getting the admiral akbar tattoo

i have a fleur de lis

no boy scouts or dmb though

I V STRONGLY REGRET JESS NOT GETTING THAT ADMIRAL AKBAR

well dudes aren't usually actively turned off by tattoos

i'm so not a tattoo person tho, it would just be RONG

i always told my mom if she ever pissed me off really bad i would get it

IT'S A TRAP

she HATES tattoos. she once had a dream where she removed an ex of mine's tattoo with a cheese grater

my mom pisses me off all the time, hence all the tattoos

you guys need to come back to college

guys should i blow off work right now y/n

y i'm about to do so

should i

a.) go to bar to look for bad dates
b.) go to target to ride the cart escalator
c.) go home

dude it's 6 where you are y y y

xp y to all three of those i guess

b
b

combine all three in an interesting way

look for dates while you do b

like, take the cart escalator home with a bad date

go to target and pick up a milf

i have to take the bus to get to the cart escalator so i dunno

jess you need to install 1 cart escalator in yr home

i may do this when i move

maybe i'll just install that chair lift the old lady rode in gremlins

^good opening for hitting on chix in wheelchairs

dude, "want to go to target and ride the cart escalator" is such a great pickup line

go to target and pick up a milf

GUYS, HIT ON CHIX THE HUDSON HAWK WAY: ASK IF THEY WANT TO PLAY NINTENDO.

and then make them give you a back massage.

i fear using the internet. it seems like giving up somehow

late to the party but this bears repeating

also tehresa otm about talking to strangers. i feel like i've forgotten how to do that and may never remember

so many terrible tattoos everywhere :( DNW

Also never bring drugs on a first date

I have the worst tattoo of anyone on ILX: peace sign surrounded by flames. kinda.

does the best possible date involve sex or not?

The best possible date involves...love?

the best possible date involves at least a callback of SOME kind... ffs guys, get it together.

i think maybe i need a livejournal.

but x-tra sweet makeout time is a plus

Not lame, Jess.

yeah, not lame. v. sweet even if it never actually happens.

I am totally serious about open cart escalator ride invitation. Yall have no idea how fun it is.

one can only imagine the amazingness of the target cart escalator ride.

Love in a (cart) escalator

ride it

waht

uhh

i like how someone felt the need to take a picture of this with their cellphone and i also like how much i like it!

seriously having been at the crazy target yesterday, my experience would have been 10000x better had i cartescalatorridden

I would ride the cart escalator, also I would run up and down it.

I miss crazy shenanigans and I am rly lonely ugh.

looks like warm-up exposure for some upskirt pics

"a"

I once went on a blind date with a mixed race girly and told her she was "very tan" ><

my last blind date went: she = unhappy zombie for 3 hours then wanted to make out. I never called her back. saw her at a party and think she wanted to stab my eyes out. /emo-lyrics

^ NO WAVE SINGLE TITLE

over pool+beers hot burrito girl says to me, "i hate comedy."

it was at that moment that i was pretty sure that even if i had a chance to get laid via the miracle of jerry lewis and his beer googles telethon, i was pretty much uninterested.
m.

Hating things is very noise. Everyone on noise board is a generally a good lay afaik.

Ok this is totally making me sad and emo but I'm sitting in this single bed that I made love in once and I'm like "you never love people as much as you do when you are in a single bed". ....

dnw in summer tho

someone tell me not to IM my ex b/c im drunk and lonely

do not do it.

not doing it, feeling good about it

im just going to start a fight anyway, and regret it in the morning

fight w/ us here instead.

fuck you grady

youre a controlling, hostile hypocrite

and i never would have lied to you if you hadnt lied to me first

hey max fuck you and your scenic coldplay and Atmosphere loving school too.

HEY MAN I LOVE THE BLUES

CLASSICAL OR DUD

MAX U SONOFABITCH

(and grady red nsfw makes people click more)

jergins sometimes i wonder if i ever really loved you or i just loved the idea of us

haha embarassing that i would actually say that

max is your ex in some of your former wdyll's?

http://static.flickr.com/31/43702845_06b06c1588_s.jpg

er, previous wdyll

mm i dont think so

ok well there is a girl in some of them that is cuet.

id hit it.

also jergs its OK, i posted a link on the wdyll thread so i had my fun.

the ex is v. v. cute but not in any of my wdyll which im pretty sure were all taken while she was abroad

less ex talk, more fake fighting

Also I hate "literary" girls.... except Laurel who is a bro.

My husband actually fell for my Bathes obsession. Then right after we got together, I cooled down, started reading Dan Brown. Well, I stopped pretending I was smrat.

God, dates, the pain, the horror.

I don't have any literary obsessions except sci-fi, which I don't think counts. And children's books. But glad to be a bro.

I like sci-fi and once took a children's literature class in college!

being totally serious here but the trick to meet cuet boyz/girlz in nyc is ping-pong! not even kidding. for some reason, ping-pong attracts:

1) v handsome single late 20s/early 30s dudes -- maybe european -- who have money and are "artistic" and who look like portuguese soccer stars

2) ridiculously gorgeous early-to-mid 20s girls who either look like american apparel models or 20-year-old tall wispy girls who look like ethnic wasp models (go with it) and who love showing their cooter

the places to find these people are pong, the table tennis joint in the les (more for the dudes there), or a private club called naked ping-pong in tribeca where there's a tournament every friday. ya'll should be hitting that akshun, forrealz.

Sorry, mh, I've given up on literary boys, too. Only rockers for me. At least this week.

mmmmrocker boys

I wish you luck, a good friend of mine is married to such a man.

this thread = A+++

i never made it to the cart escalator sadly

guys i don't wanna move. i hate moving.

yeah, me too. which is a big part of maybe why i'm staying? but god this town sucks for finding ladies.

also: sort of boring, if you're not, like, communing with nature or some bullshit.

i have to pack all of my shit up in like two weeks. and find a place to dump my couch. i hate moving.

i am trying to figure out if there is a way to avoid moving again because 3x in the past 13 months was plenty, but probably not.

Buying a house is good to avoid moving.

how do i shot teleportation

i change jobs too much to move. my industry = not good for buying a house.

Learn to apparate.

My dating cycle is totally cicadian - every 17 years, I build up enough gumption / resistance to FEAR OF CO-ED MINGLING to actually try & find a gurl to go out w/, & when that shits the bed, I go back in hiding. Besides, gurls have cooties - fuck that shit.

I am sorry if this thread isn't about dating anymore. :(

Strongo you're out?!?!? WTF?!!!? </ned>

no just moving!

i've lived in my shitty apartment for two years now. longest anywhere since 1996. r.i.p.

i'm moving too, been in mine for 3 (4?) years, and it's a breakup apartment, so r.i.p.

no hot water again this morning is making it a lot easier to move

i'm kind of shocked by this ping pong revelation. my uncle is a nationally-ranked table tennis player (he goes NUTS if you call it ping pong), and the thought of him and his fellow sportsmen as sex symbols is bewildering and a bit nauseating. then again, nyc can find a way to slut anything up.

is this an action shot, y or n?

this was a five second search! not even kidding about the talent at these things. and there really is no irony in this shit. but i understand the wariness. shit is fun, but i probably play table tennis more than i do anything else in life right now. if anyone is ever interested you should check out naked ping pong on friday nights. $20 = unlimited drinx and table tennis (where everyone gets their ass kicked; two world-ranked players play there) and lots of cuteness.

team sports -- even stupid shit like ping pong and kickball and softball and fucking foosball -- are VERY easy ways to meet boys/girls. find a game with co-ed locker rooms and yr golden.

goofy grandma's-basement/sandlot non-sports = physical activity w/o the weekender jock bullshit. win-win yall!

xp there should be noise 4-square

http://www.hickoksports.com/images/shuffleboard.jpg

i wld play softball with all this noisers, too!
it's been like, many years since little league, but i used to rock 3rd base.

RW: The last time I played beer pong, I ended up getting shitfaced, shaking my ample derierre over the cups on my side of the table as a distraction tactic, and yakking halfway through the night.

Don't do that, and it's an 'n' on the douche tip all the way.

FOUR SQUARE!!!! FUZZY BUMPERS!!!!!!

air hockey is really where it's at, though.

I WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT SHUFFLEBOARD W/ SOMEONE! I like shuffleboard! Ally, was it you??

i play catcher!!

xpost mmmmmmmaybe? i know i was talking to brian about shuffleboard because he was talking about finnish ferries. so maybe for some reason i brought it up again???

whoa curling. so wierd.

xp it's like riding a bike tza!

i really recommend kickball, tho. it's much less equipment intensive (needs 1x ball) but the action is still the same.

four square is where it is at

bad memories from grade school kickball u_u

AIR HOCKEY

lol u got pounded didn't u

Uno in a bar is great.

haaaaaaaa, ygs! i can't believe you got k to pick up a paddle!

ping-pong is wicked fun, no doubt, but i'm just not a very competitive guy and i get annoyed and frustrated when dudes take a fun sport and get all alpha-male in-your-face about it

BACCHI BALL

for a while, lauren, k was determined to be AMAZING at it solely so she could beat this one dbag who pissed us off at pong. but then lost interest.

ping-pong is wicked fun, no doubt, but i'm just not a very competitive guy and i get annoyed and frustrated when dudes take a fun sport and get all alpha-male in-your-face about it

y y y y y. me and l1sa gave up on soccer because of the fucking alpha male retards who were playing. we'd only play on practice/"fun" nights because there was a league and we weren't even bad players! but there was a couple of hyper competitive assholes who just hated having to play with girls, they'd start purposefully throwing the game and then when they got called on it by league leader (who was a dude i had a brief thing with, then we were like total best pals), they ACTUALLY TRIED TO INJURE US to get us out of the "game"?? it was insane and i ended up with a broken rib ;_;

tho the guy that broke my rib ended up with a busted face a few weeks later due to the league leader punching him when he found out my rib was broek :D

FOUR SQUARES IS BEST!!!!!

coed locker rooms = starship troopers = the FUTURE

so, i recommend we play ANY sport that will result in someone getting injured and then someone else needing to defend that person's honor ie monopoly

i am in a co-ed soccer league and it would be A+++ for picking up girls if they weren't all 20 years old (on my team at least...other teams got BABES)

MONOPOLY

YES

WAIT DUDES

I HAVE IT

CART ESCALATOR RACES

strongo otm

that can ONLY end in bloodshed

4-square 8080

but even the last time i played (couple weekends ago, in bklyn during downtime during kickball tourney) there was a dude who was all NO NO, NO OVERHAND BOUNCES, I LOOKED UP THE OFFICIAL 4SQUARE RULES ON THE ONLINE YOU GUYS and he was no fun at all

dude it's FOUR SQUARE

that's like getting all het up about tetherball

im not very intense but i would probably get alpha male competitive about cart escalator races

yeah whoever is king/queen in 4 square can change the rules

"official four square rules" wtf

I hope you cherrybombed his ass

i get alpha male competitive if someone else starts acting like that basically, then i go from being like "bro who cares we're all drunk there are no rules in scrabble" to throwing drinks on ppl :\

WTF is the point of 4-square if you can't do overhand bounces? Half the fun of 4-square is spiking the damn ball and watching the spikee chase it down!

Fuck a tea party, tho.

when i was king my only rule was no popcorn, everything else was kosher

Actually, kariki is the best game ever, but it's an inside thing usually. It can be played outside of course.

http://www.frenchkissrecords.com/documents/kariki.pdf

i am mad good at foursquare and had many long reigns as king in the coveted '4' square, so it was ok

i play fake-out low-bounce 4-square, on yr toes muthafucka

what's no popcorn in 4 square???

no.......popcorn?

I want to throw drinks on people. Is that a sport?

Score Keeping and Statistics:

Stats from individual games are tracked for the whole season, the two lowest scores in each category thrown out to reflect only the best play. This also allows for league members to miss up to two games and still maintain a competitive edge during the season. Awards are given to each season to players who score the highest in average, clobber points, consistency of play, and most improved scores for the season. Additional prizes are awarded to teams.

Ent: This is the total number of times a player has entered the court. This is used as a base for counting the number of times a player has played the game.

Srv: This is the total number of times a player has been in four square and served the ball.

Avg: The cumulative ratio of the number of Srv to the number of Ent, how many times in four square divided by the number of games played.
Adjust: The two lowest scores are dropped and the sum of the remaining Avg's are divided by the number of season games minus two. This is the number which will determine the high scores of the league.

Clobber: Similar to a judges merit score. A special point added at the judges discretion for ultimately 'owning' another player on the court through great play, demonstration of skill, strategery, or display of brute force.

it's not a sport, laurel. it's an art.

noize jai lai

i have a bro who plays SEEPAK TAKRAW pick-up games, which is like S.E. Asian kick volleyball, it is insane and i would try it but i might die

popcorn is in the standard foursquare lexicon

Popcorn (different from Bobbling): A player calls out "Popcorn x" with x being any number. If called during play, the receiving player must throw the ball in the air, clap the number of times specified, and then catch the ball.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Individual_server_rules_in_Four_Square

oh wait then i meant no bobbling, not no popcorn

My 4-square name is now Clobber Lang.

yeah I think we used "popcorn" to refer to bobbling too

http://peixin.odds-and-ends.net/archives/pictures/sepak-takraw.jpg

kairiki is amazing. i always try to get people to play, but folx is rarely into it.

yeah once people catch on, it's awesome, but it's hard to get people interested

yeah, there is lots of jumping & flipping & kicking and generally pulled groins and head injuries

in sepak takraw, i mean

there's a lot of that in kariki, too, if people get worked up enough

i mostly just play board games

I would play Mao with noizers

Yeah I really don't get into these things that involve sweating. With lots of people anyway.

settlers of catan is way better than risk

except last night when my friend called my roommate's girlfriend a whore and then she called him "little man" and i almost spilled a whole bottle of wine and everyone was mad at each other

also my roommate kept rolling sixes and i finished the game w/ 9 points because i didnt have any six resources :(

drunk settlers is awesome

let's drink cheap champagne and eat pizza

risk needs a hawaii territory so that Australia can be attacked via the BACK DOOR

drunk settlers has led to serious beefs with my friends before

also, me + most of my friends + beers + trivial pursuits = high tension, "intellectual" pissing contests, face punches

Slapping, scratching, pinching, kicking, throwing-drinks-on etc all okay? PHEW

throwing drinks on ppl is always ok!!

i'm gonna throw a drink on the first person i meet in a bar on friday, in fact. it's been too long.

thumb wrestling on first date y/n?

absolutely thumb wrestling, go for it

HEY, what about THE DICTIONARY GAME sometimes marketed under the trade name BALDERDASH?? i love that shit

or CRIBBAGE.

can you guys tell i've played a lot of board games with my grandparents??

attempts to thumb wrestle = instant love

Thumb wrestling breaks the "casual" touching barrier, so it is UBER 8080.

for true, i do this a lot, it wins ppl over

i am nearly undefeated for my massive thumbs, too

haha on my last 'first date' we thumb wrestled on the el bcuz we both really had to pee and the blue line got stuck underground.

I have teeny hands = will always lose. But that's okay, b/c then I can get "mad" and anyway by that point making out is only about three seconds away.

I'm giving away trade secrets, aren't I.

ally, if I ever see you again please throw a drink on me ok?

ok!!!

one day i come to chicago, purely to throw a drink on you, now. that is hott.

of course i will go on date with you river wolf

do you chat them up waiting at the deli counter / in the checkout line? i can see that almost working.

why is 'you are being obtuse' your #1 accusation for ppl?

dating rulez

(1) if one eats garlic, both must eat garlic
(2) socks before pants, socks before pants, socks before pants

btw river wolf, u r v. wise.

i met a really nice girl today when we were helping a mutual friend move. the more she said, the more i liked her. cuet, hard-working, ex-actor, producer, graduate degree, geeky w/o being nerdy, made everybody at the table laugh. then she mentioned her boyfriend. i'd sorta given up dating as futile until today. now i'm back w. a vengence.

p.s. anybody here do internet dating?

Hahaha, rw, isn't socks before pants my line? I think you stoled it. Also rule #1 applies to onions as well. Whiskey kisses I can handle, but not onion ones.

Laurel everyone knows the socks pants/thing.

everyone's learned it too late

I didn't stole it, Laurelz, both of those are courtesy of my pal, J__ S___. But yeah: they're obvious, and aren't really courtesy of anyone.

otm otm otm otm otm

I'll admit I didn't figure out the whole "socks before pants" thing until late last night. Very true shit.

I know someone who got a mild form of crotch rot due to the fact that his underwear would slide across his feet when he stepped into them every morning. The undies would then ferry foot bacteria up to his crucial area.

Therefore, I propose not only "socks before pants" but "socks before underwear" too.

that's not what r-wolf meant.

omg did not need to know that story

11:51 AM me: why socks before pants?
Ally: i don't know! i never do this or notice this
me: what does it even mean?
take off her socks before her pants
11:52 AM take off your socks before her pants?
Ally: what if they are cute knee-high socks? do they get to stay?
me: your socks your pants
her socks your pants
Ally: when you are putting yr clothing back ON, do you reverse the order?
me: her socks in your pants
Ally: kinky

i do not like this new direction

A man only wearing socks is one of the unsexiest things I've ever seen. That said, the big fear is that he's going to try and have sex with you with his socks on. Gross. :(

^^^^Agreed, I would expect to be thrown out the front door for this.

http://schaller.blog.hu/media/image/RHCP_sock.jpeg

while i understand the socks-before-pants idea, and think it is probably good advice, i don't think i'd ever want to fuck ANYONE who was squeamish about seeing a guy in only socks. seriously, if he's got his pants off, is this going to kill a sexy deal already in progress?

there are so many rules about how a guy needs to take off his clothing during sexy-time that just don't apply to girls really, huh? it's confusing, i think i'm with elmo on this one.

worst is if you're really dirty so the tops of your socks are black and the bottoms white and there's a line between clean and dirty skin where your socks went down.... ugh

how are you getting so dirty??

shower before sex

wait, yeah, jon, why are you so filthy?

The trick is to take off your pants and socks at the same time using your thumbs

advanced moves a++

and shirt has to go before pants

if you wear velcro sneakers u can remove shoes at same time

sex is inherently hilarious to me

Does this tie back in to indie boy crying in middle of club or am I conflating?

dirty sex in shirts & socks >>>>> celibacy, bad daters

sex in shirts > sex in socks >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> sex without taking off boxers

i mean, hopefully you're just going to GET NAKED and not have some half-clothed comedy runway show in the bedroom, right? naked is the goal, who cares how you get there!?

i see there's maybe the alternative of sexy strippy-type dancing, but rly now...

whoa who doesn't take off their boxers? that is just lazy. at least pull them down or something.

I refuse to believe anyone in the history of forever has had sex through the boxer slit. NO NO NO.

well I mean it's one thing if WHOOSH off come pants and then immediately WHOOSH off come socks but what if dude is like "hold up I need a drink of water" and is standing there naked in socks. EWW.

I have never experienced boxer-slit sex but it has to happen to like 14 yr olds.

elmo i think the socks rule applies to girls too!!

rrrobyn i think a lot of it is funny, too. does this mean i am immature or just having a good time!?

no i think it means you are not uptight.

no, girls can do whatever they want with shirts and socks, these rules are for men only xpost

girls socks are also usually cuter

i wld feel ridiculous if attempting to be sexy and still wearing socks!!!!

guys this shit is pretty basic

What if they were solid-gold socks?

Not like gold boots, but socks woven out of some kind of 14k gold fiber.

what about if they have like really gross toes or a fungal infection or long stabby toenails. i think socks might be good in some cases...

not mel

Set up two tents, and designate one as the "Make Out Tent".

Was it someone from Zoviet France?

xpost

I dunno camping with a dude and no one else is going is pretty obviously a date. Unless she's bringing someone else. You should check on that.

or MAYBE if you're biologists

this is also true.

well, my friend was talking to me before all "i don't know, i don't think it's a date, i just think he's a cool person and want to hang out with him and also want to go camping"

GIRLS!

errr but doesn't "I do not mind being alone with this guy in a tent overnight and I think he's cool and want to hang out with him" = I kind of like this dude?

i kinda like him, but not in "that way"

and he doesn't seem too rapey

bell labs is probably on the right track, actually.

the general impression i get is that it might be a first date or a surprise date if both of us are feeling surprising. or it could just be a fun time in the woods with a pal. we really hit it off the other night, and she suggested the camping, so i'm sort of pulling for surprises.

but yeah, i'm not bringing a cartoon bear and planning on cornering her while she goes to the bathroom

hey at least it will be some degree of fun either way!

i mean, if it were me, i'd assume their would be sexing, but i don't speak for all ladies. i'd say 80% chance of makeing out.

i really like her :-/

80% sounds plausible.

IOW it's a good time to be river wolf.

Yes I support this forecast.

outside the box = wiping up c on t's with socks

it's always a good time to be the wolf, brah

looks like i better leave town

i think a 'camping date' with someone you recently met and hit it off with means there will be some level of making out unless there is some previous discussion re: not making out/just friends ok

^^^yes

80% seems low, even

i wld like a date right now that involves a guy or even a girl coming over and cooking me dinner and then maybe eating dinner with me and then maybe conversation but soon happily leaving so i can get back to alternating btwn work aagh and tv-on-intrnet

alternatively, camping + aw yeah
i don't know, as long as it involves dinner made by someone else

Wish me luck guys.

It's emo-time for Steve Shasta.

80% takes into account inopportune factors like bears, avalanches, bandits and meth addled forest folk. Barring any such interventions, making out will almost certainly occur.

socks do look hilariously unsexy, but sometimes having cold feet is worse! i can't find the article now but there was a recent study where researchers put people in MRI machines and had their lover get them off so the scientists could watch their brain during orgasm. a lot of the subjects had a really hard time having an orgasm in the machine, but most of these trouble's evaporated when they put on their socks.
