Relationships: How To Do It The Right Way - Monday - Period Three
Marshall had handwavily asked the students to meet him at the Danger Shop today. It looked like a normal classroom for the moment.
“Okay guys, today we’re going to cover where a good place to meet future girl/boyfriends is. I am not going to say that these rules are set in stone. Love is a very mysterious thing and can strike anywhere,” Marshall said. “You could meet your future husband or wife in a ball pit at McDonald’s. Just make sure they had an okay reason for being in the ball pit in the first place. There are some sick weirdos out there...”
“So, let’s start with bars. Bars...great place to meet people, yes. Great place to meet potential boy or girlfriends? Not so much. Most people at bars are looking for, well, you know what they’re looking for,” Marshall said. “Not that is a bad thing. But this class is about relationships, not one night stands. Weddings and funerals? Also not good. It’s just wrong to pick up people at funerals. Weddings seem like a good idea but single women are usually emotional wrecks during weddings and the men are most likely drunk. Any number you get from weddings should be dialed with caution.”
“Good places to meet people: schools, the park, places with karaoke, laser tag, grocery stores…pretty much any place where you are doing normal everyday things. It’s less pressure to be cool for everyone involved,” Marshall said. He paused. “Okay, laser tag and karaoke aren’t really normal but if you find somebody interested in either then they are definitely a keeper.”
“So you’re at laser tag, the grocery store, whatever and you find somebody you’re interested in. That’s only half the battle. You’ve got to actually start on a conversation and ask for a date,” Marshall smiled. “Which is what we’ll be doing today.”
“I’ve assigned you all a partner and a place. One of you will have the job of asking the other person out on a date,” Marshall said. “Good luck.”
[OCD up!]

Well, probably not sudden nudity since this was class. But he couldn't be positive.

Wow. Way to go, Anemone.

"You know what? This is stupid." She shoved the pretzels towards the bar and favored him with a sudden grin. "I don't suppose I can convince you to cut the rest of class with me, and get pizza instead of stuttering at each other like idiots in a fake bar?"
"Well, so I don't have to stutter at you like an idiot, but still."

Re: A Bar – Anemone/Dick
The thought that Pizza Planet might be closed gave her pause, but not for long. "No idea, but it's close enough to lunch time that if they aren't, then Fina is, and we can eat all their cheesecake."
