Right at the moment, I'm tempted to knock CJ unconscious (not really).
Cool thing about karate, I get to knock him around. Legally. Despite being a 15 year old boy, I haven't wanted to punch him in the neck in the last 48 hours. I count that as a win.
I dunno, man. I'm feeling a contest coming on. An online version of whatever that movie was where you try and bring the most awful date possible to dinner, which in reality I think is a horrible thing, but, shit, some of these online dating stories are cracking me up.
Did you ever meet in person? Because if not, you don't have proof he was a human, and you may in fact have been propositioned by SEXBOT 6000!
Honestly, that makes more sense than a human sex-toy hoarder.
I suspect it will surprise no one that I, in fact, did NOT ever meet him in person. SEXBOT 6000 makes much more sense.

Dogfight! Which I just saw on a random movie channel a few weeks ago, for the first time in years. So good and so heartbreaking.
I had a couple of alt-weekly classified dating experiences back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, but mostly "Well,
that
was mildly pleasant but overall rather dull" rather than anything to compare with all y'all's stories.

Also, like Dinner for Schmucks, except I'm not going to learn a heartwarming lesson. That guy was just...let's just say, not able to read a situation.
JZ, that was about the woman's looks though. This discussion is about bad behavior.
Can you imagine bad behaving people all at a dinner party? That would be among my nightmares. At one point when dating, I decided only to do dessert because having a bad dinner date was too long of an agonizing experience.
Sadly it looks like I am finally going to end up in the "I hate my job" ranks of the world. Which, I had a pretty good run, loving my job(s) for the last 5 or so years. But without divulging confidential info, our company is going through changes. And none of them seem to be at all good. I HAVE to stay for another year - have got too much riding on this place. But it's going to drag. My boss is not loving her brand new boss, and we are getting a new CEO shortly (old beloved one just retired). Anyway, there's a ton of upheaval and stupidity and new people who pretend they know what they're doing who OBVIOUSLY don't have a clue. And it all affects me, unfortunately, because I am the Last Stop for all regulatory correspondence so I have to manage upstream.
Gah. I might drink too much tonight. After I feed the dogs.
After I leave the office, I mean.
I've been on some terrifically bad first dates from online sites (mid-1990s). It helped get me out of the house, gave me an evening's entertainment, and makes for good stories. I say give it a try, P-C.
I doubt you are making P-C feel better, but you sure are making me feel better for being married forever. I don't even remember dating.
It's making me feel a lot better about the rightness of my own decision to quit trying!
My worst date was probably the blind date I went on. From wearing half his dinner, to going to his house so he could play (on the guitar) and sing his original compositions for me while his dog sang along... That was fun.
That sucks, java. I always fear that will happen at my company.
I actually have tried my luck with OKCupid and did go on a couple dates with one girl, but that's as far as it went. I seem to have avoided the crazies, though.
