How to meet the girl of your dreams

[StarPhoenix]

Well if this doesn't work, then I shall have to emigrate.


It is difficult not to feel despondent about this: most of those I come across who DO have interesting profiles are far too intelligent and/or well educated/cultured for me to hold a conversation with.

[StarPhoenix]

We have a breakthrough!
I made small talk with a complete stranger this weekend!

[doo_much]

Gory details? Pics?

You know how curious we are!

Gory details? Pics?

Well.....Vincent Park Shopping Centre in the suburb of Vincent in East London is relaunching the "My Vincinity" rewards scheme, and they had a few ladies scattered around the centre taking registrations on tablets [no, not clay tablets...I know that we are backward here, but...]. I marched up to her and said:
Lol. Orsm tablet!! Lol. May I play wif it? Lol?!

Not.

Interspersed with a good deal of stuttering, my words were: "Ummm.....so....how do you manage to see anything with that visor pulled down over your face......?"

She said that she looks up every so often.

We then got down to the business of registration.

Erm....not allowed to take pictures in Vincent Park. People's right to privacy, I suppose.

[Tribble]

Tee hee brilliant Birdie. That is a brilliant start. Now if only you had said what you thought. That would be the next step perhaps. Was she pretty under that visor?

Erm....not allowed to take pictures in Vincent Park. People's right to privacy, I suppose.

ya and that could come off as kinda stalkerish

[Tribble]

I know - that sux. They won't even let me take my camera into certain malls and business (yet they allow my cell phone with its 8mp camera)

[StarPhoenix]

What was I thinking, SnowLeopard?

No next step. This was not an attempt to interest her in [eventually] Path of Exile multiplayer, or maybe some Team Fortress.....or.....loony conspiracy theories and alternative histories. I really did think that wearing it that way was a bit daft. Didn't pay attention to what she looked like. I lie....she had blonde hair and no conspicuous freckles. May have been slightly shorter than me, or around the same height.

This was just to practise Smalltalk.

In any case: she looked as though she was fresh out of school!

Her accomplice was taking pictures of her with other people, so there may well be pics up on Vincent Park's website within the next year or two....

Oh...I see that they have a FB page!

//My online endeavours remain spectacular in their inability to evince the slightest bit of interest in my profile....

/Counts his ribs...

Stem cell material?
I thought that "YHWH" was the alleged perpetrator....
...and here I thought that men were woman with one stunted X chromosome...

There is a possibility that a photograph of said lass may be posted on Vincent Park's FB page at some time....

[Tribble]

Hope so.

And yes. I believe we all start out as female

[StarPhoenix]

Have you ever been....been.....trapped by somebody's eye's, and had to pull yourself away.

A staff member stopped to give me a lift the rest of the way to work this morning. Almost had an embarrassing scene when I came to thank her for the transport she provided.

[Tribble]

That is perfectly natural birdie. Perhaps you need to see if it happens more than once

[D3PART3D]

The less you know, the better. People are flawed and you should feed your hasty judgments to the contrary.

[GDI_Lord]

Yowza!

[Tribble]

D33 - I am still trying to understand what you said there. You are either disillusioned in relationships or being cynical.

Please explain

[Stuart]

That could be....funny....particularly if I freeze or forget my lines and try to improvise...

Search YouTube for "improv proposal." There is hope.

[Tribble]

Methinks it would be a funny search

[Stuart]

They say the first rule of improv is that you're not allowed to say no. There's your way in, Mr Phoenix.

[Tribble]

But no is a valid word

[Stuart]

I didn't make the rules.

[Anakha56]

What happens if its a invatation for a cheese fondue dinner with a bunch of midgets in furry costumes? Using your rules you are not allowed to say no so ... you are in for a interesting evening then right?

@Tribble I have no idea how to take d3's comment either. Methinks its a combination of both...

[Tribble]

Yes - very disturbing comment if you examine it closely.

And don't lie - you would love that sort of cheesy fondue

[D3PART3D]

Lol no. I'm more confused than cynical (no, I don't mean I like boys. )

I just don't like when people start with the dream and then try to force it on a real person, flaws can be good! The people who start with the dream rush too quickly into things.
