Listen ... all the data we have here suggests that the "nightmare date" phenomenon highly correlates to having two "X" chromosomes (I'd estimate an R-squared of about 95%). I would never go so far as to suggest that there is a causative relationship :teeth: , but it sure seems pretty highly correlative, wouldn't you say?

Well, it is for sure that the Dos Equis are gonna TALK the "nightmare date" about more than the we Equis i Griegas are. Equis i Griegas just say, money down the drain again, move on, have a beer.

Correction! I'll grant the men have had the worst dates. But, I need to point out that not all the worst dates were with women, i.e. the she was really a he. Since a man was the worst date, I think wenchie's point is proved.

So there! :o (rasberry noises)

I have to call "Statistical Outlier" on this one, and furthermore one could argue that the date in question was a disaster because the person was trying to be a woman and was therefore attempting to mimic all the attributes of said womanhood.

Been a while since a post, but have one or two stories from my younger, wilder days of youth (all of 5 years ago).

Not exactly a WORST DATE story, but how bout a worst stalker....

The worst of the worst can only be shared in face to face conversation over beer and tequila when swapping most embarrassing stories....

a close second though, was I met a young woman whilst playing darts and partaking of cold adult beverages in a bar called SHERLOCKS of Houston on Westheimer (our Houston friends know this bar, I am sure). Within days things started magically appearing in my apartment, most particularly the bathroom and bedroom areas. Fortunately for me it was near July 4th and my used to be annual trek to Cozumel. Upon return from said trip I was greeted with dismay and anger at various scratches on my back. Getting slightly perturbed, I asked the young lady to remove her and belongings from my apartment post haste or they would be removed for her. Later in the week, after getting barraged with calls on the mobile, the home and at the office, I had gone to bed pondering my future and trying to figure out how to solve my personal issue..... At around 2 or 3 I awoke with a severe jolt and felt the pang of fear course through my veins as I realized someone was standing beside my bed. As I was reaching for my shotgun.....the light was turned on and, you guessed it...the young lady was standing beside my bed, and to add another twist.....was devoid of all clothes. Stunned by the intrusion it was all I could do to keep from killing her and informed her that it was about time that I got a restraining order, etc.. She left, in tears and one would have thought..... It still took several months to completely shake her. Fortunately I changed places of employment so at least I was completely free there, but I still had to tolerate my car getting keyed, calls to my apartment with love songs being left on my answering machine....

suffice to say that that was one "relationship" that I don't look back on a smile....
