Cobra_X30 Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 I googled picking up at the grocery store and they recommand going to 'specialty stores'. Of course all advice is geared towards men and they therefore advise them to go to avoid 7-11 (who ever considers this a grocery store ?) and go to specialty stores. I am trying to figure out where men would hang out in my area and I'm guessing: record stores (I'm looking for something that will rock me), the butcher's or deli stores (do you know if this salami is hot?), sports stores (excuse me, can you show me how to swing this bat?). The meat section of grocery stores is likely ideal. In all the advice geared towards men, they tell them to go to the vegetable sections. LOL... if you dont mind being the aggressive one... try a comic book convention! Highest concentration of single males in the entire world!!!
Author underpants Posted August 25, 2007 Author Posted August 25, 2007 Hee hee, Comic book convention. I would go, sounds like good people watching. There was a Star Trek convention at a hotel I worked in long ago. That was awesome. I met Scotty. I say take a trip to a home improvement center. Do it on a work day. As you go from department to department you can see all different types of handy men. Highly entertaining. Hmmm, I think I need a tool...(oh...no I didn't).
Kamille Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 LOL... if you dont mind being the aggressive one... try a comic book convention! Highest concentration of single males in the entire world!!! Hmmm I do like boyish men but am trying to diversify. I think I'm going to hit the Mercedez Benz dealership myself... Now I need some good stick shift pick up lines.
Trialbyfire Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 I met Scotty. Tell me you didn't say "Beam me up...Scotty"...
Author underpants Posted August 25, 2007 Author Posted August 25, 2007 Tell me you didn't say "Beam me up...Scotty"... No, I am sure he had heard that enough. Although, I was serving him the drinks so it could be argued that I beamed him someplace. Awe, cheers Scotty.
IpAncA Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 Ummm... Do you speak spanish? Im afraid I told her that her grandma was very pretty... and that I sleep with donkeys, or smell like donkeys. I could use some help... ! You poor guy. I'm not fluent in it but if I could get by if need be. My suggestion is to brush up on the basics and get a Spanish/English dictionary. There's also free on-line translation site that is good to. The more you study it the better off you'll be.
Lady Aurora Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 Why dont you just hold up a bottle of chocolate syrup and one of strawberry syrup and ask which one he would rather eat off your ass? ROFL! This would certainly get my attention. The rest would be up to you to keep it.
Lady Aurora Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 I'm seriously offended that you would encourage the use of a legitimate disability (vertically challenged) as a dating ploy *posted by all 5'3" of me* Dating ploy! Humph! More like one of the perks of being a petite woman. *posted by all 5'2" of me*
InLimbo2 Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 dang! you one-upped me - or would it be -in this case - one-downed me? Dating ploy! Humph! More like one of the perks of being a petite woman. *posted by all 5'2" of me*
Trialbyfire Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 Haha...I stand somewhere between the two of you. Just a little under 5'3". It's a perk to be short...errr...petite, because it gives us a wider range of men to select from.
Trialbyfire Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 Got another idea. Use one of those hand carry baskets. Fill with light objects that don't bruise easily but must roll. Put down your basket and then accidentally kick it over. The round objects will roll everywhere which allows the man that you're targeting to help you pick them up. If he doesn't help, he has no manners, so you don't want a guy like that. Start a conversation with a gracious thank-you and a big smile. All done. I adore creating these possibilities. It's like story time.

Trialbyfire Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 That is a good idea. He would probably be like...hmmm this chick has a thing for oranges. Haha...prove your diversity by adding baseballs and whole wheat rolls. It will make him wonder what you're going to make for dinner...
