List: Things Men Shouldn't Do on a First Date

1. Offer your arm prom-style and say "Shall we?'

2. Use grotesque cheesy phrases such as "You look lovely tonight."

3. Try to take a picture of your date with your camera-phone.

4. Suggest a walk in the snow when the woman is wearing heels.

5. Disregard bad weather and refuse to leave earlier so that you get stuck on a hill with the tires spinning and your date prays to Jesus to let the night end soon.

6. Insist on getting out of the car and walking your date the five feet to her door.

7. Be a boring, ridiculous buffoon.

8. Tell your date that people always tell you you look like Tom Hanks.

9. Not take hints about the woman being "busy" next Saturday but keep asking questions about what she's doing that day.

10. Call fifteen minutes after you drop her off to tell her you got home safely.

11. Expect a second date.

Just out of curiosity, how many of these have you experienced personally (and, say, in the last month)?

All of these horrifying behaviors were experienced by me over a mere 4 hours.
