new date ideas that i should try out some time

1. Watch movies. But ones I like.
America's Funniest Home Videos, MST3K
Videos like that.

2. Talk about religion and politics.
Get an unbiased third party to moderate.

3. This one might be fun and involves a bed and pajamas!
Each of you get a book that you want to read. If you wear contacts, take them out and put on glasses. Also, brush your teeth and take off any and all make-up (applies to the fellow too). Then sit under the covers side-by-side but not touching. Then read your book silently without talking to the other person. This type of date is more for people who think they can take it to the next level.

4. Journal switch.
Get a spiral notebook. Person A writes a themed story. The next time Person A meets their date, Person B, they give the notebook to Person B. Person B writes a themed story related to Person A's story. THEN THIS IS WHERE IT GETS CRAZY. Person B writes a new themed story. And then they give the notebook back to Person A. And the cycle repeats.
Best Case Scenario: Words are said when you switch the journal, like "Here, now your turn." Also, the journal cover is decorated with Sharpie and sequins and/or glitter.
The stories can range from stories like "What I Did Over The Summer" or "Top 10 Reasons Angelina Aint Got Nuthin' On Me" or "Chick Flicks Make Me Feel Good Inside Because ... "
Dating like this is optimal for people who stutter and their heart races when in the presence of the opposite sex. Also good for gossipy teens.

5. Snobbalicious.
This date specifically should be held at The MoMA (If you dont know what that is, I scoff). However, if that cannot be arranged, then The High or your local attempt at an art museum might suffice.
What you do: Go to the museum with your date. See paint splatter and scoff. Find out it is a Jackson Pollock and say, "Oh, dahling this must have been his earlier works." Then your eye should catch some purple piece of deliciously molded clay and you and your date exclaim "GENIUS!" After finding out it is a piece of gum you face each other and do a pursed lip laugh and pretend you were being completely sarcastic. Or you find the child that left that there and offer him $10k for his work of art if he'll only sign the bottom right hand corner of it. For he will surely be famous in a few years.
Then Tango dance in the parking deck.
Good idea, no?

6. Mariah Carey night.
I supply the iPod. You make sure my hair continuously blows as I head roll, hand wave, and lip sync her sweet sweet tunes.

7. Instead of Dinner and a movie try ...
Movie and a dinner.

Or Netflix movie night on Ashley's mattress.

8. Flying object concoction from my trunk.
I have 3 tennis raquets that were strung over 3 years ago. A Frisbee. And thats it. Surely there's a new game in there somewhere.

9. The Silent Date
[you cant hear me talking about this date because it's a silent date. Oh, and also because I'm not talking but typing].

There's nothing like a list that ends at 9.
