You know you’re hard up when your _grandmother_ has taken it upon herself to find a girlfriend for you. I dread the day that she finally turns someone up. 🙂 Oh well, at least I’m not as pathetic as [url=http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/8049/]Kevin is. * * * **TMR** _If you believed in yourself, and tore enough holes in your pants, there was always a mist-filled alley right around the corner._ ---

And now for the disclaimer - if you’re a certain someone originally from a certain large city in Arkansas and you’ve figured out my SDMB alias, I would like you to know that I was only playing with the lovely Miss Riddles and that in reality she means nothing to me. If you are not that person, then ignore this message - and **Riddles, please take me back** ---

I’m sorry, johnny, but I think you may be telling me what they call in Afterschool Special World, a “fib.” I think you’re happy with lip-girl. There! I’ve said it. You’re…not the only one. I’ve been practicing pick-up lines to use on my [crush](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum4/HTML/007469.html). Of course, my crush on the cute film student is nothin’ compared to your tonsil hockey, but I aim low. * * * A little persistance goes a long way.

“Tonsil Hockey”!!! You make it sound so cheap. Honestly, if you asked me out, I would go for it. I’m game. Time and place. You pick. I might be able to squeeze you in, but you know what? You’re worth it… Let’s give it a shot. Tonsil hockey optional (until our second date 😃 ) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-infamous-dinner-party-set-up/16195.md?page=2)
