Ugh..I'm glad I can look back and laugh at some of the dates I went on when I was younger. I think I can legitimately scream BINGO from just one guy. *cringe* he was overly nervous because he had been asking me out for awhile and I finally caved and figured "What the hell?"

We met at the movie theater, because I had to come straight from work. I kept offering to share my drink with him and he refused, till it was half empty , then took it and finished it making that Ohh so wonderful "slurp" noise with the straw till people around us were staring. He also spent most of the movie telling me what was about to happen, because him and a friend had seen it the day before. (The movie choice was his, not mine)
Afterwards, he asked about going to dinner, figured "What the hell, might turn around and get better". No such luck. After shooting down any suggestion I gave, he picked Denny's. (No insult to Denny's, I like a Grand Slam breakfast, not really my idea of romantic first date material. Maybe a great morning after for breakfast one). He then proceeded to make jokes about my allergy to mushrooms and thought it was funny to continuously try and put them on my plate till I finally gave up eating due to fear of and ER visit.
I honestly believe I lost brain cells just trying to have a semi-intelligent conversation with him. If it wasn't about four wheelin', pot, PBR, the bible or TV shows like "Mamma's Family", it wasn't interesting. Needless to say, I never asked about books or philosophy.
Finally said I was going to the restroom and called my best friend for a save. She lived close enough to come by and say I had a family emergency, while I was gone he started asking our waitress for her number (he apparently wasn't listening while she and I talked about having a class together in college)
When my best friend finally showed up, with the story of a death in the family; he still tried to score and told me to call him and he would come over and comfort me like I "needed" but it had to be at my place because his mom was a light sleeper. He was nice enough to let me know I owed him because ( I will never forget this winning hook up line) "You know, this cost me my gas money for the week, but I'm sure you're going to be worth it" then pinched my ass.
I couldn't leave fast enough, and attempted to avoid all calls from him for ages. Ran into him several months later while I was with my savior best friend and told him I was contemplating join a nunnery and devoting my life to the church. He still tried.

Will avoid the 'Wearing Goofy Outfit' Since it was the 80's
