Speed Dating

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

"Where do you usually buy your clothes?"

"Pen or pencil?

Do you have a boyfriend? Do you want a better one - answer the first question first!

I'm organising an orgy for my friend's birthday. Wanna come?

Hi! That's a great outfit you're almost wearing! Your shirt is very becoming on you, - if I was on you, i'd becumming too!

Let's go back to my place, order some pizza and [composite word including 'f*ck']. No? Okay, how about chinese?

Oh my god. This is the perfect question.

"Who are your favourite authors?"

"So, what's your excuse for trying this?"

"What sort of relationships are you looking for? Bit of laidback fun? Mating, offspring and devouring the heads?"

How about:

What do you usually do when you go out?
Do you like big crowded places or more private ones?
What do you expect from a relationship?
What do you like the most/dont like at all?
What are your favorite drinks/Actor/actress/Movie/Book?


Tell a few things that you like to do, be casual, opened and honest
Look for things in common.

Well and all depends on what you are really looking for

"If you were a crayon, what colour would you be and why?"

"If you could be doing anything right now, what would that be?"

"When did this country start using 'intellectual elite' as a pejorative?"

Go with Snarls!

So speed dating? going with a friend or just giving it a go for the hell of it?


Don't ask her anything, just stare at her chest and talk about yourself. Women love that!

Stare at her. If she utters a single word, maintain eye contact and say:

"IT SHUTS ITS MOUTH OR IT GETS THE HOSE".

That should do it.

oooh I know this I went speed dating a coupla years back. As life would have it I started seeing two women inbetween the time I booked it and it actually happening so I was kinda relaxed about the whole thing.

1. Mention you can get weed. I got three replies that way
2. Wear eyeliner and fetish gear
3. Tell them you're going to G-A-Y afterwards just in case
4. Don't agree to go on any dating shows (I got approached by Sky who wanted to put me on that "date a mother and a daughter" show)
5. Be yourself, open and engaging
6. Don't smoke, it puts some of them off
7. Don't get so pissed you forget what their names are
8. Have a laugh
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!

Anyhow, its Valentine's day, so at least a few of them will be feeling so desperately single that it probably won't matter what you say. Just tell them what you think they want to hear and in the morning tell them to make you tea and toast and then [composite word including 'f*ck'] off out of your flat! :D

Better idea! Before the first girl, quickly nip to the loo. Then when you return, open with a good ol' SPIDER-MAN!

To be fair, it was a bit like asking for dieting tips at www.welovecakes.com

Gotta agree with Denyer's "so, what's your excuse?" tack.

I've always assumed what you ask depends on what you're looking for...

"So, any kids?"

What? I'd ask it... in fact, I have asked it. I meet a lot of guys with kids. Which just goes to show that I really need to find a new place to hang out.

Shame... embarassment... fear, anxiety... that feeling of claustrophobia and dread...

... what? He's already there, it's not like I'm gonna put him off...
Grrr. Argh.
