It Rubs The Lotion On Its Skin: A Thread About Dating

[bug on your lip]

i watched old Yogi Bear episodes last night and he kept calling his sidekick "Boob"

[bucketofpower]

So I told him he had to find a dive bar with pool tables in that area that he feels comfortable that he can find and I will meet him there.

But, if you have any suggestions I will take them.

Pomeroy's on 7th St and Missouri

[amyzzz]

Audra, no offense, but you should not meet that breathalyzer guy.

[Gribbz]

Unless it's Mark Grace, of course.

[greghead]

Fuck yeah, I'd love to buy Gracey a drink.

[HotHamWater]

I agree with Amy and Gribbz and Greg.

[marooko]

Audra, you probably know that isn't a good choice, and that's probably the exciting part. I am with the "No" group.

[RotationSlimWang]

Jesus Christ you all are some hyper judgmental cunts. So the dude has a DUI, maybe his story is true or maybe he just had five or six beers one night and wasn't too inebriated but smelled of it and they gave him a brethalyzer and he failed. It only takes three-four drinks to fail. There are worse crimes in the world, for fuck's sake.

[TomAz]

Count me in the group that thinks Audra should not meet the guy. Not because of the DUI, who gives a shit about that. But because Audra has horrible taste in men.

[bug on your lip]

it has kinda turned into a "what's wrong with this one?" side circus

[marooko]

He's an irresponsible liar. Have some kids with him.

[HotHamWater]

Yup. At this point, I would pretty much advise Audra not to meet up with any guy that catches her interest.

[miscorrections]

But if she doesn't go there won't be any stories of woe.

[marooko]

I'm sure she's still got a couple up her sleeve.

[greghead]

Not because of the DUI, who gives a shit about that. But because Audra has horrible taste in men.

Bingo. Great conversation does not make him a great date, and I think we can all agree that your picker is broken. "Who cares if he lies, he's so funny and charming."

[suprefan]

I think we can all agree that your picker is broken.

You mean her brain?

[TomAz]

Come on Chris. No one makes fun of your hair gel do they?

[greghead]

You mean her brain?

No. I certainly don't think anything is wrong with her brain as a whole, just the portions that keep picking terrible men. Hence, "picker."


Oh, and fuck you.

[getbetter]

Fuck that do what you want to do Audra. Go with your gut ambition and at least you know he is down to get drunk.

[unit300021]

I'm going to join the yes club. Chances are overall he is going to be a no simply because he is out of your driving distance, however that doesn't mean you shouldn't meet him for at least a good pool night.

[Mugwog]

Beat that pussy up girl.

[locachica73]

My current roommate owns a company, owns a house, is very responsible and he has a breathalyzer in his car. He was at a company golf tournament and got pulled over on his way home. Which could very easily happen to just about anyone on this board. In AZ it's far too easy to get DUIs, so no, I won't use that as a reason to not date a guy. The fact that he lied is the reason I would lean more towards not going out with him, and let's be honest, who hasn't lied a little when talking to a possible dating prospect to make ourselves look better, or not as bad? He could be a very nice guy that ran into bad luck, I have had plenty of my own bad luck, why would I judge someone else for that. Chances are if I agree to meet him he will be a total tool, but I will at least get some pool games and free beer out of it, instead of sitting at home alone being bitter.

Also, fuck you Chris.

[Robin]

I usually lie to make myself look worse. This way, the potential partner would be pleasantly surprised; not disappointed.

You should date Zach, Audra. He's just the right amount of being/seeming like a wreck (which is totally not a swipe, put together people are fucking dull).

[guedita]

I've been in his car. NO BREATHALYZER.

[grannock]

I wanna get a breathalizer in my passenger seat for any girls im bringing home.

[marooko]

It would already be obvious by that point that they're wasted, whats the BAC matter?

[mountmccabe]

What the hell do you have a car for?

[guedita]

This kid at the bar last night hit on me and my friend by:

a) shaking his butt on us
b) lifting up his shirt and laughing

Upon inquiry, he said that these moves have a surprisingly high success rate.
