CNN, which is trying to become the US Weekly of television, has put up a new article online listing all the ways women (or, really, men) blow their chances at a second date. Obviously, none of them were written by the man pictured above, a CNN employee who should have no problem getting a second chance, even after violating every one of these rules...
HOW NOT TO GET A SECOND DATE
"Forget" your wallet.
Cry.
Inappropriate disclosure of the personal kind. [Apparently, CNN has never heard of the term "TMI," which would have made this sentence far less awkward, uncomfortable, awkward, and redundant. - Ed.)
Inappropriate disclosure of the medical kind.
Perplexing Puppetry. [Huh? Guys, have you ever actually had someone do the hand puppets or "talk to the hand" thing on a date?!]
EXcessive EX Talk.
Still Smitten.
or worse...
Still Smiting (as in, "that bastard Anderson... why did he have to turn out to like the other sex?")
All these faux pas are somehow attributed to women by the CNN writer, but why don't the same apply to men? We've heard horror stories of "men" forgetting their wallets... or worse, using Entertainment Coupons.
Anyway... you can read the rest of this nonsense, along with tiresome explanations, at CNN.com. Instead, how about listing some more (i.e. "better") reasons a guy or gal won't be able to land a second date... in the comments...
