The Dilemma and the Solution

[A halfway intelligent man]

-would contact you in some manner and express-

-interest in taking you out to dinner-

-sometime-

[soon.]

(---)

[A fully intelligent yet idiotically presumptuous and over-thinking man]

-would do the same but believe that in these-

-modern new-fangled days that some women-

-don’t WANT to be taken out dinner and-

-approach the-

[situation from a different angle.]

.(---).

[A crafty fucker,]

-one who daily laments the fact that no one appreciates his craftiness-

-which is, in reality, nothing-

-more than highly calculated stupidity,-

-would know what a fully intelligent man knows-

-and come up with something like a fake contest-

-and inform you that you have WON a free meal-

-with said fellow who happens to be on the board that-

-picks the winner of said-

[contest AND is the one who chooses what the prize is, which is dinner.]

-(---)-

[A complete and utter chickenshit of a child]

-would ignore the hankering to ask you out-

-to dinner and just tell you that,-

-actually, he is a liar and in fact DOES think that-

-Eddie Money-

is the best songwriter of the last 70 years,-

[then stay at home and read a Miranda July book, alone, for the next 8 months.]

OK then… “The Shared Patio.”
