Intro to 21st Century American Culture - Monday - Fifth Period

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

Lorelai smiled at the students once they'd all entered and taken their seats.

"Morning everyone! Today we're going to learn about dating. It's an important part of the modern high school experience for a lot of students and with Homecoming coming up in a few weeks, I want to give you all the information you'll need to have a wonderful time."

She launched into a short lecture on old-fashioned courtship rituals and how they evolved into modern dating. She also gave out a packet of handouts on Homecoming, Prom, Dating, and Safe Sex.

"Now, I'm going to pair you up and I want you to try asking each other out on dates. In this day and age, it's perfectly acceptable for a girl to ask someone out, so I want both of you to take a turn doing the asking. Marty, Jaye and I will be around to answer any questions you might have."

"No," she says slowly. "Further away than that."

Well, now, obviously this girl was making things up to make him look like a fool. "Uh-huh. Right. Anyway, would you do me the pleasure of accompanying me on one of these date things that the instructor is tellin' us about?"

Hey, look, he got the assignment done. Go him!

"I can't because I have a boyfriend, but you did the assignment very well," she assures him.

"Huh. Okay." Pete twiddled his thumbs for a moment. "Thank you."
