On High School Things
@Katzen-party It just seems like an odd band too have slipped through. Why not the Gin Blossoms or Toad the Wet Sprocket?

Can I self-promote for a second? (Sorry) Next Thursday, a movie I made is premiering in Boston, and you should come! (and pay for a ticket). Brattle Theater, 7:30. partylikeitsaverb.com
I'll crawl back under my anonymous rock now.

On Faking, Other Women, and the Top 50 Proposal Jokes
@KatieWK People lie because we're all above average. I feel like I'm 6'2". When you meet me, I'm sure you'll feel like it too. Just make sure it's a bar where you can sit down. A lot of people genuinely are delusional about how the rest of the world sees them. I think it's helpful for them.

I'm pretty sure a Skinner Box would fix 90% of this.

On Locks, Ships, and the Sexless Non-Marriage
@Third Wave Housewife People don't choose to get married. It's just what happens when you date someone for long enough that it'll be too much of a pain in the ass to date someone else.

On Treating and Sitting and Smoking and Talking
@mystique Yeah, but that's kind of the point of a first date. You don't really know how much you like them yet either. You're getting them to go out with you and getting to know them a bit. I wouldn't necessarily call it a failure. It still seems about right to me.

On Treating and Sitting and Smoking and Talking
@WaityKatie I mean, there's an etiquette to how and when to pay for things that can take a while to learn. I know it took me a long time. I don't really expect a college student to have mastered it. I'm sure this guy can do better, but her attitude seems to be "I soo deserve it because it would make me feel good."

@paddlepickle Meet for coffee or a quick day-date type thing. Keep it unromantic. Maybe, "I'm really busy these days, but we can hang out for a while in the waiting room of my gynecologist's office." Then when your name gets called, turn around and say, "Fingers crossed!"
