Apocalypse How?
Hey it’s almost new years! Just thought you should know..
So everyone knows the story of the last pizza slice right? Like how no one wants to be the one to eat the last slice etc? OK. I have realized that the second to last piece is the “new” last piece. That is, people are now not eating the last two pieces of pizza! I think this is because no one wants to be the one to create the situation of the “last piece” of pizza by eating the second to last. (of course this holds true for all food items…carrots, crackers, cocaine lines)
Paperback books are kind of like like the book version of DVDs. That is, movies start in theaters and go to DVD, books start in hardcover and go to paperback. Basic, but true.
I think it’s interesting that my decisions to go out at night are based entirely on what I have to do the next morning. The actual night itself doesn’t really play into my planning scheme. I need a good two hours extra sleep time after a late night out.
OK no one can steal this, but last night I came up with the ULTIMATE pick up line. It may not sound good at first, but it works really well. (we tested it in Adams Morgan to great success) So what you do is, walk up to the girl/guy and say your basic hellos etc. then, look really startled and say “Oh my gosh, you look exactly like the girl from “The Start”! (a movie that does not exist) She will then say “oh really? cool I haven’t heard of that” or something. You then say something along the lines of how pretty she was in it etc. At this point it doesn’t matter what you say, you have A) broke the ice and B) flattered her, which is always a good start. So it’s basically an ice-breaker more than a pick up line but whatever. It’s kind of… I don’t know, cheating? It definitely seems a little bit questionable since the movie doesn’t exist, but it’s a harmless way of disintegrating the potential awkwardness of the beginnings of conversations.
Some good fake movie titles:
“The Start” “Weekend” “Power Play” “The Other Side of Youth”
