I'm a very busy man, man. I don't have time for anything but bullet points. (This is patently untrue, but I think today's modern pretty lady enjoys an "infographics" approach to dating.)

Here is a series of lists:


Top influences on my views toward relationships and romance (no particular order)


- Jon Cusack movies
- Mountain Goats lyrics
- the writings of Joey Comeau and Randall Munroe
- the small amount of economic and game theory that I've bothered to learn
- the complete failure of the above to teach me anything useful


My best dates (no particular order)


- Bloody Marys at the laundromat
- Beers, then watching Die Hard
- Attempted blind date, then realizing we both knew some of the same people, who were at the bar, and abandoning our table to sit with them.
- Liquor store, wal-mart, infomercials


Things in common among the majority of girls I have dated (no particular order)


- Glasses
- Experience in the handing-people-coffee industry
- Cigarettes (often menthols)
- Ex-boyfriends in bands
- Preference for brown liquor


Several more things (in alphabetical order)


- Arby's is always a disappointment
- The Doors were never very good
- Google should probably start its own Facebook
- People should drink less vodka
- Vanity license plates almost always make me like people less


Hi. I'm Dan. I'm probably free this Friday.
