Wanna come back to MY place, human?

Blog Guy, I’m a hip young single guy, and I need some dating advice.
You’ve sure come to the right place. I can pretend I know all about that stuff.
I go to singles bars, and sometimes chicks will say, “You want to come back to my place?” But I don’t always know if I should.
I hear you. For starters, if she’s in the parking lot and you haven’t even gone inside yet, you should probably pass.
Wow, thanks! What else?
Well, hair can be a giveaway. If a woman looks as though hers was styled by a helicopter rotor, say something diplomatic, like “Sorry, as you can see, I’m a Roman Catholic priest.”
And what about her clothes? Should I be looking for a chick with a very low-cut top, or a more respectable turtleneck sweater, or….
Let me stop you there. The only actual rule is, if she has a top with different-colored circles glued over her breasts, AND she has the rotor hair, look her in the eye and say, “My Birthers Club is meeting here now, maybe you’d like to join us?”

My number one rule was to never pick up a chick that I actually couldn’t pick up.
I was never interested in a woman desparate enough to let me pick her up.
Mr. Moderator?
Yeah, I think I know where you’re going with this, Bill. I don’t seem to be reaching quite the golden demographic that advertisers and other readers are looking for. Maybe not even the demographic that human beings are looking for…
Fantastic: The perfect look for a girl like me who goes to bars in order to have drinks. Pretending to be married only worked about half the time anyway.
Hey K4, I’m betting that isn’t your real name…
At least that first comment disappeared
Yes, but I can put it back anytime….
I’m thinking that it could be wise to avoid women who might have birds nesting in their hair.
Psh, they did that second photo’s outfit in Mean Girls. Janis cut two holes in Regina’s tank top to try and humiliate her but she made that look so good that next day, every girl in school had cut two holes in her shirt.
So yeah. Fail.
We’ll behave.
Are we seriously discussing fasahion??
