Episode 16 Winner

Congrats to Jenny for the best answer to Episode 16’s question: How do you know when you’re in love?

You know you are in love when every time you start to think about the one you love, butterflies start flying in your stomach.

You know you are in love when you find yourself shopping with that person and you feel like everything is right in the world.

You know you are in love when you can’t stop touching that person.

You know you are in love when you feel miserable when you are away from that person.

You know you are in love when you start planning a future in your head.

You know you are in love when you can’t stop smiling every time you see that person.

I could go on with more examples. For me, being in love is wonderful and yet painful. The man I love doesn’t know that I love him. He is my friend and for now that is all he wants because he is about to be deployed. Because I love him I am going to wait. Love is worth any pain and wait.

When you find yourself ignoring your own feelings and focusing on how someone else is feeling, you’re in love. I find myself now looking at maps, tracing the distance between where he is and where I am. I now pray each and every night for him to come back safely to me.

Thanks again for all who participated.

Episode 15 Winner

Congrats to Saya Elizabeth for the best answer to Episode 15’s question: How do you cover up a fart in public?

Well you have a number of options. I’ll list the top 10:

Option 1:

Blame it on the person nearest to you. This works best when blaming small children because they’re not as credible.

Option 2:

Blame it on the seating. “Geeeez these leather seats SURE are NOISY” (wink, wink). Just hope that you’re not a) sitting on a wooden or metal chair or b) standing up.

Option 3:

Slowly sidestep out of the “zone” that you farted in.

Option 4:

Pretend that the person who smelled or heard it is crazy. “I didn’t fart. You’re hallucinating.”

Option 5:

The classic “whoever smelt it dealt it” line. We’re all really 7-years-old in our hearts anyway….

Option 6:

Come up with a freak explanation for why the noise occurred. “It was a sonic boom!”

Option 7:

Blame it on an animal. “It was the dog” is classic. You can get creative with it, though. “It was that passing squirrel” will work just as well. Would the guy standing next to you REALLY know how squirrel flatulence works? No, I think not.

Option 8:

Confuse the person next to you by coming up with random excuses as to who did it. (also see “blame it on somebody else.”) ie: “It was the letter E” or “Francis Scott Key did it.”

Option 9:

Pretend to be so utterly disgusted that nobody will suspect it’s you. “Oh dear LORD. Do you guys smell that? That is so DISGUSTING. Why? WHY WOULD SOMEBODY DO THAT?”

Option 10:

Let it out as slowly and quietly as you can while disguising it with other noises. I won’t get too into it, but this is why you should always carry an air horn and one of those wooden whistles that mimic the sound of a choo-choo train.

Episode 14 Winner

Congrats to Farah Marra for the best answer to Episode 14’s question: What do you do if you can’t remember a friend’s name?

If you’re on your own, it’s a little sneaky, but you say, “I’m sorry, but what’s your name again?” When he is shocked and says “Dave,” you say straight back to him, “Silly — of course I knew your name was Dave. I meant your SURNAME. Someone I work with thinks he knows you, I mentioned how much of a great guy you were last week.” TADA! Works every time! If you are with a friend then just get them to ask!

Episode 13 Winner

Congrats to Jewel for the best answer to Episode 13’s question: What’s the best pickup line you’ve heard?

Guy walks up and asks me for a piece of ice from my glass, throws it at the floor and says “Well, now that I broke the ice can I buy you your next drink”. It made me laugh. I thought it was clever.

Other Pickup Lines

See my friends over there? They bet me $100 I wouldn’t be able to have a conversation with the most beautiful girl in the room. So what do you want to do with the money?

-Tania

I was so taken by your beauty that I ran into that door over there. Now I’ll need your name and number for insurance purposes.

- Hello, I’m Awesome

This one guy said “You dropped your name tag” and handed me a sugar packet that said “sugar” on it. Even though I think pickup lines are cheesy I still remark about it to my friends.

- Person

Guy: “Hey.”
Girl: “Hi.”
Guy: “Do you have any raisins?”
Girl: “Uhh, no?”
Guy: “How about a date?”

- Studmuffin

“Wanna go out?”
“I have a boyfriend”
“I have a fish”
“What?”
“Oh, I thought we were talking about things that didn’t matter”

-Kr!ssy

At a bar beside a woman. “Hey… who invited all these other people? I thought it was just going to be you and me.”

– Jason D

Haha I told this to about 5 girls and they laughed. So I suppose It’s good?
Me: “Hey.. my pen is out of ink.”
Girl: “Really? Are you sure?”
Me: “Yeah, here” -hands pen- “try.” -takes out a piece of paper “just write your number right here …”

– Danny Menshire
