8/7 What's a better gift for the first date, single long stem rose
or cute little teddy bear?
\_ SAP ALERT
\_ A chainsaw! Either red, or yellow, your choice.
\_ This had better be a good first date. Please don't write on
the motd next -- "She stood me up. What should I do?"
\_ if she's under 18, definitely teddy bear. If over 23, definitely
rose. Somewhere between is hard to choose.
\_ Would a bouquet overdo it?
\_ MAKE SURE IT'S A YELLOW ROSE ON THE FIRST DATE
(don't ask me why, I've just been told that yellow
is the right choice) - jed
\_ Yellow == friendship, Red == love, Purple == ????
\_ no no don't get a yellow rose - yellow stands for sickness
as well, and is more accepted as a color for get-well-wishes
and such. i'd avoid the teddy bear- too cutesy & high school.
\_ Yellow also means infidelity.
\_ White means friendship, dumb ass.
\_ do _not_ buy a yellow rose. it means loss of love or
infidelity. do _not_ buy a white rose. it means
friendship, which is not the right sentiment for
a date. do _not_ buy a red rose, because it means
passionate love, which is premature on a first date.
do _not_ buy a teddy bear, because that's really corny.
do _not_ go to a formal restaurant for dinner on a first date,
because that's too tense. save the gifts and formal
stuph for later, when real feelings have had time to
develop. if you must bring a gift, make sure it's
small, and refers in a humorous way to how you
met her or something else unique about her. -hh
\_ carpooling...think about it
\_ a teddy bear for a first date? I'd say go for the rose, it'll
make her feel less "under pressure." And I'd go for the pink
rose - pink means "attraction" (less direct than the red rose).
\_ Dewd/dewdette don't worry about it. Just be yourself and enjoy
the date.
\_ A Mum means Hope. - http://www.pressenter.com/~rose/meaning.htm
\_ I think purple roses look the best
\_ How about a black rose?
\-giver her a black lotus. if she doesnt play magic and
realize what you've given her, then dump her. --psb
\_ Don't give him/her a rose. It makes you too predictable and
boring. You wanna look cool. Treat him/her to dinner,
and give a box of gummy worms (teddy bears too, if you
want to be a sap).
Don't give gummy salamanders though. It signifies
desperate sex. --pcjr
\_ I'd prefer a bullwhip. or a switchblade. I suppose if the date
consisted of shooting holes in the teddy bear, that too would
be acceptable. -ray
\_ I don't give gift on first date; that is so passe. - choice
\_ Yeah, first date, so passe man. Why don't you skip all that
and go straight to the hysterical breakup scenes? Get with it. -pvg
\_ Don't knock Origami flowers. Always a good choice
\_ Why? You fucking lose in the end any which way.
\_ What's a difference between "going out" and a "date"?
\_ ZERO TOLERANCE!!!!!
\_ OH MAN, I REALLY AM GOING TO EXERT SOME SELF-CONTROL --chris
\_ not enough to shut up, apparently.
\_ Don't you dumbfucks know anything? (except psb who had a good
idea.) Bring condoms. If she doesn't play and realize what
you've given her, then dump her. --psb fan |
