JACK DID IT: What About YOU?

I took part in a series of "leadership seminars" in college... brainchild of the dean of student life... not a great idea, or at least not all that well-executed. Anyway one of them was led by a prof from the philosophy department -- in fact the head of the dept. I don't remember exactly but I think we were discussing the "philosophical ramifications" of being in a position of hiring and firing employees. There was some dead horse being beaten -- and in my opinion an irrelevant, moot horse. I said I thought it was "pointless" to discuss such-and-such further. Yes, I had grown impatient and bored, and perhaps it was sourpussy or wet-blankety of me.
Instead of saying something like "well, the majority of the group think it merits further discussion" or "this is just the sort of thing you might have to endure in a boardroom someday, missy, so get used to it!" or any number of things, even sharp-tongued things, he simply said something like "Well, maybe it is pointless, so I guess this discussion is over." In stunned silence, we watched him pack up his things and leave, twenty minutes into a fifty-minute session. Two people said things like "don't worry about it -- he's done this kind of thing before" or "it's not your fault." That helped. Still, it made me feel like an awful, awful person. I know I'm not awful; I know I'm compassionate and civil. So I had a little death of those beliefs. No, they fell into a coma and awoke eventually.

I think I would have burst into tears right then and there! How did it go the next time you saw him?

Worst flirting that was ever tried on me:
I was sitting alone in a West Hollywood bar, as I so often did. I was around 21. I was approached by a guy approxiamately 20 years my senior. He was pudgy and not at all my type.
"Hi," he said, shaking my hand. His voice and general bearing gave the impression that the phrase "Dirty old man" had been invented for him, regardless of the fact that no, he wasn't old (don't get sensitive, anyone). I didn't want to be unneighborly so we continued shaking hands during the following interchange.
"Uh, hi."
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"Uh..."
"Are you available for dating?"
"Uh..."
"I've got 10 inches. You like 10 inches?"
It was at this point that I let go of his hand. What was most humorous was how surprised he was that I wasn't interested in knowing more about his 10 inches because, after all, who doesn't like 10 inches?
I have a friend in town whom I've often refered to as my favortie sexual partner of all time. We never dated, we were just that kind of friends. Sex was something he was. Look up sex in the dictionary, there he is. He had a pickup line that worked for him that I doubt would work for anyone else. He would meet a potential Mr. Right Now and at some point during the conversation he would say, "So, would you like to get together for pizza and a fuck? Or don't you like pizza?"
Yes indeed. Not for everyone.

LOL..that brought up an old memory...
I once had a guy say to me, "Only two things to do in Maine: fishing and fucking. And in the winter, there ain't a whole helluva lot of fishing going on."
I wasn't quite sure how to take this since he said it to me in the summer....

I wouldn't have been surprised if my father had actually used one of his favorite introductions as a pickup line long before he met Mom.
I never heard him say it to a person who was in his age group; but, he did say to younger fellows, even to my friends when they had not been introduced, while extending his hand, "Howdy, M' name's Merle. "Spose y' know yores."
Front-Ranger:
I went back and read your post again, Scott. Great pickup line! I will have to remember that about sexual tension (how could I forget!)
And Barb, I need you to come to my defense about men liking to be ignored. It worked for you, according to your story about meeting your hubby. I don't know why men like women who won't dance with them, to paraphrase...
