Date Machine: How Date Machine Bloggers Date

Funny Ikea Ad The Perfect Mom - Watch more free videos

This morning, I dropped the kids at school and made my way over to Ikea. Or the Mothership as I like to call it.
It's such a useful store, that I had in my mind that it must surely open at 8am for people with an urgent need for more white towels (me) or shoddy furniture (anyone >30)
In reality, turns out it opens at 10am.

BUT, all was not lost as the restaurant was open. And this is where the magic started.
A reasonably tasty breakfast of scrambled eggs, home fries and bacon plus a really decent cup of coffee was procured for $1.07
How ridiculous is that?

I ate my breakfast surrounded - and I am not exaggerating when I say surrounded - by Red Hook hipsters, Red Hook teamsters and sundry construction workers.
Now there's been a few people lamenting about the cost of dating of late, both on Date Machine and Hooksexup Confessions, so it struck me that breakfast at Ikea was a perfect first date solution. Ludicrously cheap food, views of the river and Manhattan, clean bathrooms. What more could one wish for?

Then it occurred to me that said daters could sneak off into the cordoned off store to extend their date in private.
And that's how I came up with today's feature:

How the Date Machine Bloggers Date at Ikea.

Amboabe would take his date to the nearest leather sofa. Wait, make that a chaise longue. He would remove his yellow shoes (or was it yellow socks? I forget), lace his fingers and rest them gently on his chest and proceed to dissect his dating life. His date would be a slim brunette in black rimmed glasses, her hair thrown up in a pony tail. She would be wearing a black blouse with a bow at the neck, a pencil skirt and red high heels. Good girl with naughty potential in other words. She would take notes.

Spjv840 would bring 6 young men on her date and, at $1.07 a pop, she would treat them all to breakfast. Once satiated, she would lead them into the still closed store, grabbing one of Ikea's handy paper rulers and diminutive pencils as she did so. She would take them to the office section where she would invite them to line up along the edge of a draftsman's table - crotch height. They would then be instructed to drop their pants and drawers and wallop their manhood onto the shiny white surface. Using the tiny pencil, she'd draw a line where each knob ended, then she'd make a note of it for prosperity in her moleskin "Knob Size" notebook. The lucky owner of the biggest penis would be tied to the nearest sturdy workstation and ridden mercilessly. (I have visions of spjv with one arm held high, rodeo style, a big ol grin on her face)

Zeitgeisty would take his date to the nearest bathroom installation. His date would lie in the tub whilst Z sat on the toilet with his trousers around his ankles. (Dear reader, please imagine running water and an adequate soil pipe. Work with me here a little).  Z would sit with this elbows resting on his knees and his chin in his cupped hands, contemplating the ebbs and flows of his life experience whilst squeezing out hard turds. (Sorry 'bout that. Can't help where my imagination takes me). His date's ample breasts would bob up and down as she undulated her hands under the water. Z's nose would just be visible as it protruded from the frosted glass screen and she would gaze at it lovingly.

Me? Well I'd just get me white towels.

I'm blushing. To be honest though, I would probably be the one studiously taking notes after having lured my date into talking and talking and talking :)

I find it really hot that you didn't write "chaise lounge."

White towels stain too easily.  Dark colors are better for post-sex mop up.

OK you guys? You're writing for each other now, and I'm b-o-r-e-d. If there's any justice in this world you're not getting paid much.

This is really funny, date in Ikea with $1.07 breakfast and white paper towels handy. So daters got all in one package, no talking, no learning body language, just go get some privacy.

Zeit - err, yep it's entirely possible that I have given how much time I spend there. Today I saw a women in the playground that looked familiar - sure enough, I saw her at Ikea.

acamil - European advertisements are SO MUCH MORE AMUSING than American ones. As you know.

amb - good. I live to make young men blush.

xcalibur - duct work, sump pump, load bearing partition... just trying to put you over the edge. Dare I tell you that my soil pipes are cast iron??

prof - If I used the term chaise lounge I would shrivel up and die. Ditto cra-ssant (that would be croissant in case you hadn't figured) or au bon pain to rhyme with plane etc etc. My people make a total abortion of Spanish, but we generally can speak some French.

And white towels bleach my darling. Any manner of body fluid can be removed with bleach. Even the blood from the time I hacked up a bad lover.

spjv - I am APPALLED that you don't have one already. What on earth is wrong with the youth of today?? Get thee to a stationers immediately.

PO - I tend to read your name as BO which makes me want to pronounce it poo. Don't worry, it's me not you. So sorry you are bored and much more sorry that you are delusional. Clearly there is no justice in the world given that Bush is president. I'll stop now because no doubt you are bored of my reply, you jaded little hipster you.

zeit - "airhead" now is it? Hadn't you started calling me AHG because we're besties? I guess it's frenemies after all. And no, not so you'd notice. "The check is in the mail" is about as reliable as "don't worry, I'll pull out".

(joking. Don't fire me beautiful Hooksexup!)

relations - I will have you know that the paper towels are brown! They're recycled fachrissakes.

Ahg, ahg, ahg, ahg ahg!!!....

AHHHHRRRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
