Inevitably, the response, "Ya. whatsup?"
"Come over! Let's watch a movie!"
I don't care who you are, you don't get that text and NOT know what's going down. So let me say two things on this sad subsequent-sunset situation (a stretch, so i'll give it 3.5...judges? *BZZZ* Dang!).
First of all, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND MAKING OUT DURING MOVIES! The only movie I have kissed a girl was Ben-Hur and that is only because you can go 20 minutes kissing and not miss much and plus, it was the second time i had seen it that summer (it was kind of a boring summer, don't hate). If I want to watch a movie, I put in a movie. If i want to kiss, i put the car in park. Very simple.
If you can kiss ANYtime, why pay money for it?
Now, a movie CAN be a great way if you are too chicken liver to break the physical barrier with a hand hold or cuddle; but I don't want your greasy butter lips all up in my grill when I'm trying trying to use my Droid to wikipedia someone's name while watching Midnight in Paris to see if I actually got the joke.
The second thing I want to say about movies and lips is, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND CHITCHAT DURING MOVIES! Holy cow, people! Okay, an original observation, a quick question, a cute comment (+6 combo boom!)--but to ask me my political views during the opening scene of The Ring doesn't work. The opening scenes are CRITICAL.
I was on a movie date with a girl that seriously was just talking and talking and talking and talking. And she was asking me all sorts of questions. I mean, I appreciate her trying to get to know me and I was interested in what she was saying, but here's a little get to know me moment: I don't like talking during movies. Let's have that be the first question if you are a movie-chatter.
About the 20th question, she goes, "So...what is your favorite movie?"
I look at her and said, "well...it might be this one. How about we find out?"
A little rude, and I'm sorry...but the real joke is on me. She is married with 2 kids and I'm....well blogging about her.
Anyways...so in my opinion, the lips should be used sparingly during the movies. Who knows, maybe if you actually watch a movie, you can find new ways to kiss.
p.s. Just to let you know, even when kissing, water obeys gravity and will go up your nose if you try the spiderman kiss.
Finally. Someone shares my pain. However your first alliteration doesn't even make sense, I give you a minus 3. But your combo is very nice. :-)
ReplyDeleteWow.
ReplyDeleteZack, how casually are you kissing people? If kissing is a casual kind of thing you do with different people all the time of course you want to watch your movie. On the other hand, if you are way interested in someone part of the fun in the romance is how many things AREN'T important because you have the young lady with you.
If the movie is more important than the kiss, you probably shouldn't be kissing her anyway.
Dave,
ReplyDeleteIt isn't that the movie is more important than the kiss, but rather I can kiss her after the movie. I should be able to control myself for a couple of hours. A small kiss, fine, but let's not get carried away. If I can't go one movie without making out, maybe I'm dating her for the wrong reason and shouldn't be kissing her anyway.
And I kiss sparingly. I'm happy with my number. I'm no prude...but I also don't hand out my kisses like pretzels.
Has Bret never told you about our first date? When he took me to a scary movie in which I was jumping out of my seat attempting to scream softly when he cast multiple glaring, dirty looks my way every 5 minutes or so that said "SHUT UP!!!!!!" while the couple we were doubling with was cuddling? No? You should ask him about it sometime ;)
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, it's a horrible idea to take a girl out you hardly know on a 1st, 2nd, or even 3rd date to the movies!!! Second, if you're getting a text at 11pm that is a straight up booty call for a make-out. The movie is just there as background music :)

I really wanted to do that during Midnight in Paris too.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, this blog is great.
You only get water up your nose in the Spiderman kiss if you do it in a torrential downpour. But maybe that makes it more... whatever.
ReplyDeleteI was once on a movie date with a guy who would not stop talking at all, to the point where people around us were constantly shhh-ing him. I could feel the death stares. In an attempt to shut him up and allow people to actually hear the movie, I kissed him (against my better judgement) only to have him pull back after about a minute to lecture me on how kissing in the cinemas is rude because it makes the people around us uncomfortable. We both walked out... half way through the movie...separately.
ReplyDelete"I don't want your greasy butter lips all up in my grill when I'm trying trying to use my Droid to wikipedia someone's name while watching Midnight in Paris to see if I actually got the joke."
ReplyDeleteI actually laughed out loud.
I haven't laughed so hard in a very LONG time!!! Yes! Love this post! You're hilarious. And keep the advice coming. Although I'd have to stand up for my lady friends and say that not all girls are complicated and dramatic. Grant it, I love drama as much as any other girl (don't lie ladies, we love it!!) but never enough to hurt a guy.
