What an absolutely brilliant statement I made 🙂

Now let’s see if \*\*IvoryTowerDenizen \*\*can match it with her:

**Never Have I Ever been officially asked out on a date!**

**And after thinking really hard, I must admit that neither have I ☹**

I’ve been asked to bed, but I’ve always been the one who’s done the date-asking.

**After also thinking really hard, neither have I.**

Been out with quite a few girls over my lifetime, but never with one who had the moxie (or bad judgment ;)) to ask me first.

**I have been asked out on a date**.

My first date with **SeptemberDay** comes to mind. We met via Yahoo! Personals, back when that was still an unusual thing. She placed the ad and I responded to it. A week later we met at a park near her house. She took the initiative, both with the ad as well as suggesting the date, so I think it definitely falls under the spirit of the statement.

**I’ve been asked to a sorority date _function_, so I guess that counts.**

**Never been asked out on a date.**

If by date you’re describing just two people, usually a man and a woman (but could be same sex as well, depending on preference), with a mutual liking or hopeful interest in one another.

Looks like I need to get caught up.

Yes, I’ve been to Starbucks - much as I’m ashamed to admit it.

Yes, I have been asked out. Though it’s been a while…(waitasec, the last part isn’t true. I got asked out last week.)

Okelidokeli ya’ll - time for the next one.

The **New and Improved Superman** says:

**Never have I ever…seen Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” video in its’ entirety (straight through, from beginning to end.)**

**I have. Don’t remember where or when, but I have.**

**I have seen Michael Jackson’s _Thriller_ video.**

Many times. MANY times. Uncountable times. Plus, I own it. Not that I’m a rabid fan or anything, but it’s probably the most interesting music video ever produced!

**I have seen the video for "Thriller."**

Notably, in a music class in middle school. Who says American public education isn’t up to the challenge of educating our youth for a bright future?

I’m especially impressed with one particular contestant who’s managed to get all the colors right so far 🙂

(yes, I’m gonna keep rubbing it in :p)
