There are times when you should not flirt with someone

I think most of us know when it’s ok to flirt, and when it would be a bad idea. But…
Once at the grocery store a guy was flirting his ass off with me while he had 3 large packs of Depends in his cart. They could’ve been for someone else, but still…

Today, while I was in the checkout line at Walmart, a 60 something guy was flirting with a 40 something woman, and he had a big poop stain on his pants.

I was at school today and saw a guy (me) flirting with The Perfect Girl ™. He was an idiot, but he has a major crush on her and no chance. That’s a time not to flirt :slight_smile:

Speaker For The Dead, you’re funny. I like you.

I thought this thread was gonna be about funerals, or something. I had always been under the impression that supermarkets were regarded as one of the best places to pick up women.

But, I mean, really. Who in the world needs to be buying three large packs of Depends??

someone who drinks a lot of Metamucil and prunejuice cocktails.

Hahaha! I like this funny thread. :slight_smile:

Hey, listen, sometimes my blad - er, I mean, sometimes my elderly grandfather’s bladder - just doesn’t have the strength it used to and, look, I don’t have to explain my shopping habits - damn! I mean my grandfather’s shopping habits to you!

BTW, on the subject of the OP, I’ve learned it’s not a good time to flirt whenever you’re in the same room as an SO. Just because she wanders off to the ladies’ room, don’t think it’s safe to flirt. It’s possible she came back while you were flirting and has been standing behind you for quite some time as you continue to flirt with someone else.

Somehow I get the feeling that this has happened to you once or twice?

How, exactly, does one get a poop stain (much less a big one) on his pants?

Must’ve run out of depends.

Never flirt when you have a huuuuge booger hanging out of your nose. Am not speaking from personal experience.

Well it looked… umm…moist, so I guess it came from within the pants.

shrugs

Depends.

time to switch from Depends to the more absorbent “Oops! I Crapped My Pants!”

To return to the OP, though, this isn’t exactly the WRONG time to flirt with someone, but you just shouldn’t expect anything to come of it.

If you’re a man in a gay bar, and an adorable twinky little Hispanic guy comes up and snakes an arm around your waist and says something like “Aie, beeg poppy, how jou doeeng?” and bats his impossibly long eyelashes up at you, feel free to flirt with him… but common courtesy says you should buy one of the shots he’s selling if you want him to stop back by your barstool later.

Also, if your wife is sitting on the next barstool, be prepared to be called “beeg poppy” over and over again for several days afterward.

[sub]it was worth the teasing.[/sub]

No. That’s the right time to flirt. Otherwise, you will spend the rest of your life wondering what might have happened.

And, who knows? Someday, you might not get shot down. :wink:

It’s also not a good time to flirt whenever the SO of the person you wish to flirt with is in the same room. I mean, there has to be a correlation to Crunchy’s contention.

Well, I sure as heck know a time when you should not flirt: When you’re married. (Right, Celestina?)

The perfect time to flirt is when you are married. Flirt with your spouse!!!

Aww, there must be a reason you are married. Your wife sounds like a lucky woman.

Don’t you love to be in love?

Well, not entirely sure, but one seems to be when I’m in the room.
