One more example of why you should never mix politics with the art of flirting |

Edited on Mon Sep-17-07 07:23 PM by Godhumor
Today at the gym I ended up on doing my cardio in an elliptical machine row that also had a guy really chatting up a young woman. It was clear that they were no more than casual acquaintances, and he was going through the routine of talking about interests, why he rocks, etc. Anyway, a television showing CNN has a segment on Hillary Clinton's health care plan, and this "gentleman", trying to be funny for the lady, gives the middle finger to the TV when it shows Clinton speaking.
After this act he looked over at the woman with a grin on his face and notices her starring at him. He, really not picking up the signs, says, "Do you like Clinton?"
She responded with a hmmm sound and then asked, "Who do you like?"
The guy says, "Rudy Guiliani."
The woman picks up her iPod, inserts the earbuds and says, "Well, I guess this conversation is over."
I'm still laughing. Poor guy :P

a girl at my old work kept starting conversations and asking me to tell her a joke......so finally i relented and told a Bush joke. She frowned at me and said "I like Bush" in a very defensive way. LOL that was the end of that, she never spoke to me again. (fine by me) :)

4. Whenever I flirt with a girl I'll make sure to throw in a few things like that |
|
to test the water for dealbreakers before I get too involved. :) That, and I'll usually tell an off-color joke or two. Because if she can't take my jokes, then there's just no chance for a relationship.
