Prius Dating Service

Dave- nice. 3 weeks before my wedding I had a guy ask me out (while I was at work, and the guy was older than my DAD, no less) and I told him \"Thanks, but I'm kinda busy lately planning my wedding.\" I have never seen a guy walk away that fast...  

And my then-fiancee and now-husband got a real kick out of it when I went home and told him.[/b]

That's awesome...I know what you mean...the lady was just speechless and had a look on her face like I just slapped her mother. It was one of those situations where it just popped out. I didn't plan on saying that, but the timing just worked out too perfect. I don't think I could ever be that witty on the spot ever again, once in lifetime thing I guess, the kind of stuff you only see on sitcoms :P And with me being an accountant, the odds of having a sense of humor are stacked against me merely based on my profession :P My wife tells me I was never meant to be an accountant, but I don't hear her complaining on paydays, LOL.

Dave.

I would happily join such a service, but I really don't need it. For some reason, my Prius is a Chick Magnet. It really draws them in.[/b]

A Prius as a Chick Magnet? I thought all you needed was a cute little puppy or kitten to attractive those cute,attractive females,

[Godiva]

You have a puppy?

I'm looking for a puppy for my parents, in case anyone in the San Diego area has one or knows of one.

Mom prefers a female but any dog will do.

Dad prefers a BIG dog and doesn't care what sex.

The people who were going to give them a yellow lab backed out and there are very depressed. They were all ready for the new baby. Like an adoption that falls through.

If my Dad had his way he'd have a Great Dane. If my Mom had her way she'd have a King Charles Spaniel.

You think I'll be able to find a Great Dane/ KCSpaniel mix?

Rick:

Yep, a Prius is pretty much all I need to Close Escrow. Works like a charm and *way* less work than a puppy or kitty.

Since most women adore cats, I also have the cat back at my condo. Just to prove I'm a "sensitive" guy too.

The lady I am seeing gets lots of attention from her service dog. But the guys really want to go out with the dog! One guy actually said that.
Her thoughts? Hey, there is a person at the other end of that leash!

Dan:

Geez that's creepy!

It's kinda sad where our society has gone when guys don't even hit on the correct species. BRRRRRrrrrrrr

[rick57]

I would agree Jay. People like that are not right if they want the dog over the owner, . Should come as a pair. You like the dog, you should like the owner too!

[DanMan32]

OK, I knew you all would go there. I don't think by wanting to go out with the dog, it was meant in the same sense as going out with a lady.

But I agree, they are a pair, and I love them both. The dog loves me too. I spoil him too much with petting. I'd throw a ball around for him too, but chasing thrown objects is not his thing.
She likes me too, but she just got out of a serious relationship, so I am giving her space.

My wife drives a Toyota Echo, "one-half a Prius" (at least the same ICE). Otherwise, our Prius is always the vehicle of choice. The Echo earns about 40 mpg, while the Prius earns 49 mpg (winter) and 60 mpg (summer).

I thought someone dredged this thread up for daniel. Now it's being hijacked for Echo MPG. Yikes!
