Love Smart: Period 2, Week 8

[suit-of-awesome.livejournal.com]

Barney was waiting in the classroom when students arrived, dressed immaculately as ever. "I'd like to begin with a description of a great way to pick up chicks (or bros, I guess) for limited time interactions. I call it, The Just Visiting Method." He grinned, and let the name sink in before continuing.

"If you can stomach walking around dressed like someone’s dad, pretending to be a tourist in your own hometown is a great way to score chicks. All you need is a map, a fanny pack, and a brand new identity. I can’t help with the first two, but I can certainly help you create a believable back-story that promises to turn your waning local love life into a fiery, no-strings attached romp. Sorry! No time to stick around - you’ve got a flight to catch."

"All you have to do is fill in this script and you're virtually guaranteed a good weekend lay. Barney clicked his projecter remote and a copy of this cloze-type activity appeared.


Hi, I’m (real first name) __________ (bird of prey) ___________. I’m from (compass direction) _________ (biblical locale) ___________, (Midwestern or rectangular state) ___________. Go fightin’ (woodland creatures) ____________! Yep, it’s a great place to grow up. Walking down Main Street at (time of day) _________, and dropping in at (3-letter male name) _____________’s for some homemade (diabetic dessert) __________, well it makes my eyes water and my tummy grumble just thinking about it, yes siree. From time to time I like to check in on ol’ Mrs. (tree species) _________, bless her heart, and her prize winning (color) __________ (vegetable) __________s. My high school sweetheart (flower type) ____________ and I used to neck up on (dangerous animal) _____________ (body of water) _________ Point. Thought we’d get married but the good Lord had other plans for her in the form of a (American sedan) __________ losing control ‘round (American president) ________’s Curve. After she passed, I took up (piece of furniture) ____________ whittling to ease the pain, but golly, I sure don’t meet many ladies in that line of work, ‘specially not ones as pretty as you. Gosh, you’re prettier than a (barnyard animal) ___________ on a (season) _________ day glistening in the (celestial body) __________ shine.

"Now, with that information in mind, it's time for the practical portion of today's lesson, kiddos. You are going to pretend you've cheated on your SO. You get to choose how, with whom, all that jazz. Then you'll meet with a partner and practice lying about where you were last night. Sounds easy enough, right?"

He's completely serious, yes.

Zack wasn't so much boggling, as waiting for Barney to notice he looked a little different to usual.

Barney did notice, and was quite impressed. He paused by Zack and commented, "Nice haircut, Addy. Turning over a new leaf?"

Hoshi did not boggle. She was taking rather extensive notes. This just visiting-thing no-strings-attached thing may come in handy one day when she was serving on a starship, hitting a different port of call every week.

Molly had a comic book in her notebook and was not looking at the empty desk where Karal usually sat.

Jamie was pretty much ignoring Barney and now trying to peak over Molly's shoulder to look at her comic book.

Annette's forehead hit her desk.

Hermione never got used to this sort of thing. She was listening, as it was a class, but her jaw was dropped and she was wondering if maybe Barney wasn't evil.

Dawn stared at Barney, unable to believe some woman hadn't killed him yet.

Tell me lies [11/2]

[suit-of-awesome.livejournal.com]

Tell me sweet little lies! Partner up and see who can get the other to break first! Yes, one (or both) of you must pretend you cheated and lie to cover up where you were last night.

Re: Tell me lies [11/2]

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

Hoshi waited to see who she could lie to.

Re: Tell me lies [11/2]

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

This... might suck.

Re: Tell me lies [11/2]

Molly looked over at Annette and decided to just jump into it. "So, I tried calling you last night. I thought you said you were going to be home."

Dawn glanced over at Sam if he was there. Otherwise, she just doodled in her notebook. Hadn't she and Sam just done this?

Hoshi was there. She had delicious banana nut muffins that she claimed to have picked up at J,GOB. It was a lie, of course.
