REVISED POLL
Jul. 20th, 2007 03:31 pmOK, I meant to get rid of that "Negotiate on a case-by-case basis" because I knew that would be a cop-out, and certainly if someone decides to state their terms, that can take precedence over habit.
But, suppose it doesn't come up in conversation. Certainly you won't ask whether you're allowed to see anyone else after the first date, at the very least. I'm trying to get a feel for what you think the social norm is, in your own social circles.
Don't be shy; results are viewable only to me; your girlfriend or wife won't find out if you saw someone else between your first and second dates.

Simpsons at 7-Eleven.
Jul. 20th, 2007 11:44 pmThe 7-Eleven by my house is perpetually out of Simpsons schwag. Apparently I'm not the only one who thinks it'd be neat to have some Buzz Cola lying around, even if Buzz Cola is barely ever mentioned on the show.
No Duff beer has made it into the third dimension, because the movie's PG-13. BOO! But if the rumors about Bart's wang are true, this means that America's chief taboo has officially shifted from nudity to substances. With smoking bans being passed in many states, and DUI crackdowns, it looks like it's headed that direction.
You know what they had plenty of left? Donuts with pink frosting and sprinkles. I don't remember seeing them before, and they matched the promotional graphics, but I guess either nobody recognized them as being from the Simpsons universe, or I showed up right after the following morning's supply of "fresh" donuts came in. It was 11pm.
I did not make the clerk say "Thank you, come again," even though he had the accent.
