    Ok...since this is the Cuckoos Nest, can't possibly take this question seriously (it's against the Cuckoos nest law)...but maybe some of the following will inspire you:

    1. In the summer time, have your lunch in a trendy park like Stephens Green (or the equivalent wherever you live), seek out all the trendy suit types/hippie types (i.e. whatever ure into) , sit near someone you think you'ld like, then start chatting about the price of sandwiches, the book you're reading, or where they got their tie, as you have to buy one for your brother/father/ cousin!

    2. Go to a good cafe, sidle over to your 'target', and spill your milk/coffee (but not too hot) coke etc over them...then insist on paying for their dry cleaning bill/lunch bill/ mortgage and ask for their contact details

    3. Take a train journey at the right time of day- not too busy so that its packed, not too quiet that means ure sitting on ure own- ID target,,,,sit ureself down, and either spill coffee, or talk sandwiches !

    4. Go to a museum- ID target- bring mini lap top to research on artist they have just looked at and looked interested in..read up pertinent information, then say something profound out loud about the painting that only a real artist fan would know...job done!!

    5. Go to a play----at the break, stand near the bar with a dramatic pose...look really interested in the programme...someones bound to strike up a conversation with you. ..not saying you'll like them though!

    If none of the above work, I'm sure there's a few available guys here in the Cuckoos nest...but it IS the CUCKOOS nest..!:D

    Well you say you're looking for "Someone Special". Thing about that is, you have to find hi first.

    Trying to force a spare between you and any Joe-Soap would defeat the whole purpose ya know?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭Lana80


    And plays the flute.Very funny pic Rhyme


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭Lana80


    Sorry Mr Stuffins .what do you mean?

    If you do want "Someone Special" then no amount of tips we give will make a guy you go on a date with be that special guy.

    Hope i'm making sense!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 156 ✭✭Lana80

    What the f*ck is wrong with you people, are you blind? Read the damn charter. MrStuffins, you're on your last warning. Any more logic or sound advice and you're out of here.


    OP, show your target the shrine you made out of the samples of hair you collected off them while they slept. Men love flattery.

    When you spot a suitable mate, fling a heavy spanner at the back of his head. When he turns around to see what the **** was that, tell him you are so sorry, that you thought he was someone else. Conversation and romance should follow. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    Nice. Don't worry about flinging it too hard, either, it just means you can skip the conversation :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,255 ✭✭✭James T Kirk


    And if he turns her down, she can bludgeon him to a bloody pulp with the spanner. :cool:

    Men of Ireland beware of spanners hitting your heads.
    Seriously am great and getting other people together but dont go for it if I really like a guy,so spanner it is


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 44,501 ✭✭✭✭Deki


    and reusable to keep him in line...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,257 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    Most guys ARE spanners so be careful, you might just be adding to his mass just like Robert Patrick in Terminator 2!

    Cover him in nicotine patches while he sleeps and remove them before he wakes up. He'll equate the terrible withdrawal with you not being around. Repeat a few more times and bingo, he's yours for life.
