THINGS YOU DON'T NECESSARILY WANT TO HEAR ON A BLIND DATE
"That's odd. You sounded handsome on the phone."
"I'd love to go there for dessert, but it's outside the 2-mile radius of my ankle bracelet."
"Please stop talking to the waiter in Klingon."
"I didn't realize sweater vests were still in fashion...."
"Huh. I thought Kim was a woman's name."
"I just love gravy on my pancakes."
"You used to model before? Do you have the number of the person who modeled 'after'?"
"So do you shine that bald spot or is the glare natural?"
"So when you have a downline, you make more money because you're the upline, see?"
"Nah. It's still bad. Have another mint."
