I never realize how interesting I am until I talk to a stranger.

The Date.
Me: So, do you engage in any hobbies other than soccer?
Him: No, that's basically my life.
Me: Oh.
Him: What television are you into?
Me: I don't have a tv.
Him: Oh.
Me: Have you read anything of merit lately?
Him: What?
Me: Who's your favorite author?
Him: I don't like to read.
Me: Oh.
What a relief my enjoyment of life has no direct correlation to my dating status; goodness! I should have played the "Did I mention I'm bisexual" card. I'll bet that would have enlivened the conversation.
