Being in the frozen northern wastelands, I very seldom have the chance to go to lazer tag.

Mirthy, can you take me out on a date? Puuhleease!

Its great than you, Sir Krokaslut!

I also have no idea what she means by 'suit up,' but according to Massassi we're supposed to be so desperate to get laid that we hang on every word typed by any girl who can successfully operate vbulletin, so clearly we're both defective.

This was a first date, not an action-packed weekend for a huge group of friends. You people need to get some perspective.

I'm never in the mood for laser tag, but that's because the only one around here is next to a community college.

Suiting up is a reference to the show How I Met Your Mother.

Which she said they're both fans of.

But what does the suit consist of? Do you mean actually wear a suit (like with a tie and ****)? If that's the case, I would have said no. I have a history of liking star wars, but if a girl asked me to dress up like a storm trooper and go play lazer tag, I would have said, "well lazer tag sounds fun but I'm not dressing up."

What if you already had the stormtrooper costume?

And what if there was room in said trooper outfit for two?

ok ok ok, I would have done it if the following were true:

1. she was hot
2. she was actually into star wars (well the old ones), not faking for my sake
3. I already had a costume (which I don't)

I would have been more willing back in the day before the prequel trilogy than now, though.

way too uptight, man!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

fyi my offer still stands (you know what im talking about)

there is not enough How I met Your Mother watchers in this thread.

you all need to watch this and learn. Note, this is the only musical song in the show



also,

I hate that ****ing show. My wife watches it all the time. That show is really annoying.



And yeah, first dates should be simple. She may have frightened him or expected too much.

did nobody pay attention? i do believe she said this wasn't the first date

I try not to pay anything, let alone attention...

I think you're trying much too hard. You pretty much won by just having breasts & a vagina. Everything else was overkill. There's no guy on the planet that's worth that much creativity (except for maybe on special occasions like birthdays). Too much of that sort of thing makes you appear desperate. In other words, a little more sex & a little less personality goes a long way w/ guys (we'll get plenty of personality if it progresses in to a relationship).

P.S. +1 for guys that hate lasertag.

Yeah, you're winning.



He and I have known each other for years, and have gone out a bunch of times. We've also gone out and done more then this in less time, so its a bit dissapointing because we have a past.

Darth Dan: Yes I do speak German :-)

Thank you Saber, Dud, Bacon, Yecti, and Jep.





Jon, chill out. They read my other thread where I asked their opinion on this date. In that thread we discussed 'Suiting up' and that I have gone out with this guy a number of times before. Just because you weren't included in the previous conversation doesn't mean you should act like a d***. I think its you who needs to get some perspective.



Haha no, no, it just means something niceer then jeans. In the show it does literally mean a suit (I wore my cheap summer suit) but I didn't expect that. No worries, I wasn't about to demand that he dress up like a character from the show.



Well he graduated this weekend, so I wanted to do something fun to celebrate that. He's done fun creative things for me in the past too, so it seemed like a good idea.

And having the goods doesn't mean that I was looking for action. I can get that, I was just hoping for something slightly more meaningful then tail. You don't have to tell me "a little more sex & less personality", I already know.

My mistake. I somehow overlooked that this wasn't a first date. Please disregard some of what I said.

Holy multipost, mirthy. It's called an edit button >.>

Thank you! I didn't mean for it to be so long.

On a random note:

In Zombieland when Woody Harrelson says "Did you ever read that book 'She's just not that into you'?" I laughed incredibly because I thought some hick thought it was a book and not a movie.

Then I googled it, and it's like several books.

/random

*hides*

I think I might like to watch this show with the suit guy.

K, Clearly I missed all the 'How I Met Your Mother' references (never watched it). Thanks for filling me in.

:ninja:I'll dress up in a suit and play laser tag and do a little more than tickle you before passing out.

Aside from the ninja face and generally creepy overtone I agree with this statement. I don't fully understand how a guy who you had a reasonable expectation of excitement over an elaborately planned adventure could go cold fish on you.

I've had instances where I was completely gassed, but a girl who I'm into puts some effort into doing something for me (which is awesome because I usually date girls where I'm the planner) and it's energizing. *shrug*

I say break his knees then trap him in a room with ten thousand angry hornets and make him say "I'll never wimp out on you again" then cackle evilly and say (through the intercom) that's right you won't then let the hornets do their work while he screams "THEY'RE IN MY EYES AUUUUGHHH."

That's just what I'd do though.

Why would she want to emulate that which only Nicolas Cage can master?

Guys, let me tell you about the worst date EVER!

Here's how the night went:

I got a call from a girl, but I had awful cell phone reception.

Her: "*crrrr* let's hang out *crrr* going to be fun *crrrr* aser *crr* suit up"

Me: "What? I can't hear you... you want to go to a fundraiser?"

Her: *click*

Needless to say, I was excited about going to a fancy fundraiser. Maybe it was a charity ball! However, on the way to the drycleaner's to pick up my suit, I saw a toddler getting chased by a ravenous bear! I run into a phone booth and emerge as SuperGris and wrastle with the bear for about three hours, giving the toddler enough time to flee.

By the time I get to the drycleaner's, it's closed!

The girl picks me up and frowns that I'm exhausted. I can hardly speak! Even if I could, I wouldn't dare reveal my secret identity as SuperGris.

The girl says we're actually going to LASERTAG! I shudder, recalling the look on my sidekick Skip's face right before he was vaporized by lasers in my last fight with the Aliens from Planet 9 (see "Gris Tales," issue 5).

Dinner was fine.

We don't smoke our cigars. I may be the man of steel, but I'm still susceptible to lung cancer! When we get back to my place, we watch an entire season of a TV show. I pass out because I'm still winded from the bear fight. Asleep, I dream that I'm wrastling with the bear again, but when I wake up, I'm just curled up with the girl.

Being a superhero is tough. I'd put anyone I get too close with in unnecessary danger, especially if they foudn out my secret identity as SuperGris. When the girl leaves, I kiss her on the cheek.

You ****ing liar, stop stealing my stories!

You don't do a very good job of hiding your superhero alter ego, Gris. We all know your playboy image was just a facade.

Haha gris, that was funny.

Hehe. Nice, Gris.

Okay the icing on the cake of this story is that the counselor in question was my brother.

My perspectiveness is alive and well mr. Jon' C have you ever heard of the term the first impression is always the best impression? Think about it!

You should probably give up on him altogether and join a convent.

Sounds like the Dark Force soundtrack a bit.

People can't have fun together in ways that interests both of them without looking desperate?
****, I'm screwed as far as relationships go.
