Dating advice

Ever have your sarcasm mistaken for a murderous threat… on a first date?

I went out with this girl, who I had only met once, briefly, and things were going fine.  Typical small talk, first-date banter, with that awkward energy that we all know and love.  Conversation turned to movies, and it turns out, every single one of her favorites was a horror film.  With a self-conscious-sounding, vulnerable inflection, she said “I guess I must really like being scared!”

And without thinking, I switched to a creepy-as-shit, solemn voice, looked her in the eye, and said, “GOOD. BECAUSE AFTER DRINKS, I’M GOING TO KILL YOU.”

… silence …

 

 

 

And then…

just tears.

 

Best date ever?
