is calling someone "fucking retarded" an appropriate response to getting turned down for a date? Furthermore, do you think it might subtley persuade him or her to consider you further?

This is why I'm still on a prolonged sabbatical from dating, with no intention to end it yet.
― Bob Six, Sunday, 17 June 2007 11:04 (eighteen years ago)
because someone called you a retard for not dating them?
― emilys., Sunday, 17 June 2007 11:21 (eighteen years ago)
I would like to see emily's exchange being worked into a film script.
― Alba, Sunday, 17 June 2007 11:29 (eighteen years ago)
I'm sort of proud of it
I said, "we should go on a date (don't worry, to me that could involve as little as drinking beer and watching tv and totally not fooling around or anything"
and he said, "well, I don't think that's such a good idea because I am becoming involved with someone else...you're really cool though, I guess just bad timing"
and I said, "Well, I think it's a great idea and I think you're fucking retarded."
― emilys., Sunday, 17 June 2007 12:06 (eighteen years ago)
...unfortunately it got much worse
― emilys., Sunday, 17 June 2007 12:07 (eighteen years ago)
Oh, I had assumed it was him calling you retarded.
― Alba, Sunday, 17 June 2007 12:21 (eighteen years ago)
more details! what was his next response?
― Rubyred, Sunday, 17 June 2007 12:23 (eighteen years ago)
People always stop telling stories before the really good parts.
― Rock Hardy, Sunday, 17 June 2007 13:22 (eighteen years ago)
fuckers.
― Rubyred, Sunday, 17 June 2007 13:32 (eighteen years ago)
i guess it depends on whether it was a matey thing or if it was delivered with honest venom.
― darraghmac, Sunday, 17 June 2007 13:36 (eighteen years ago)
Yeah, did you include the obligatory but not completely honest winky face? I often wonder if there people who adopt smileys in real life.
― nathalie, Sunday, 17 June 2007 14:59 (eighteen years ago)
totally not fooling around or anything"
See, you sent out the wrong message here. Shoulda been "I put out."
― milo z, Sunday, 17 June 2007 16:09 (eighteen years ago)
yeah, he already knows I put out. :0/
― emilys., Monday, 18 June 2007 06:49 (eighteen years ago)
here's where I become less awesome:
"I'm just not buying this Someone Else thing, because if that was really so important to you, you wouldn't have followed me up the steps and kissed me back. I just want to know what's so scary/unappealing about me.
...besides the fact that I am writing you crazy emails at 8:00 in the morning"
― emilys., Monday, 18 June 2007 06:51 (eighteen years ago)
to which he replied:
"you came at me and kissed me i didnt even try anything with you and i dont want this to be an issue i really am talking to someone else there is nothing wrong with you i just like someone else"
― emilys., Monday, 18 June 2007 06:54 (eighteen years ago)
UGH RUN A MILE GUYS LIKE THIS WILL KEEP DOING IT TO YOU TRUST ME ON THIS.
― Trayce, Monday, 18 June 2007 07:28 (eighteen years ago)
Sorry. I'm a tad bitter at the moment. I need to go get drunk or something.
I don't really think you can win him over, Emily. Sorry.
― Tuomas, Monday, 18 June 2007 07:30 (eighteen years ago)
"you came at me and kissed me i didnt even try anything with you"
He didn't push you away either, so he's guilty anyway. I mean, did he kiss you on the cheeks or *slamdunked* a tongue inside?
Also, don't listen to Tuomas.
― nathalie, Monday, 18 June 2007 07:31 (eighteen years ago)
guys like this will keep doing what exactly trayce?? leaving their mouths perilously exposed?
― Tracer Hand, Monday, 18 June 2007 08:59 (eighteen years ago)
No not that... what he said. Don't mind me, I'm not the best person to advise on this stuff right now heh.
― Trayce, Monday, 18 June 2007 09:19 (eighteen years ago)
did he say something bad? emily.s appears to be going out of her way to portray him as being extremely reasonable!
― Tracer Hand, Monday, 18 June 2007 09:21 (eighteen years ago)
I dunno about you, but if someone tells me he's "becoming involved with someone else", I take it as a sign that it's not worth the trouble, even if I had kissed him. But maybe I'm just an easy quitter?
― Tuomas, Monday, 18 June 2007 09:32 (eighteen years ago)
I'm not saying hes being unreasonable! Argh never mind.
― Trayce, Monday, 18 June 2007 09:54 (eighteen years ago)
ok sorry!
― Tracer Hand, Monday, 18 June 2007 09:57 (eighteen years ago)
Sorry no its fine this kind of thing is a raw nerve for me from years of doo wop de doo is all.
― Trayce, Monday, 18 June 2007 10:06 (eighteen years ago)

― electricsound, Monday, 18 June 2007 10:27 (eighteen years ago)

Why would you want to date someone you think is "fucking retarded"?
Back away now. Trust me on this.
― Masonic Boom, Monday, 18 June 2007 12:43 (eighteen years ago)

A square portal, through which Ted Danson is visible, will appear over your left shoulder.
