The Philosophy of Dating
I recently had a talk with a friend of mine about the perceptions of dating. Tell me, what would you answer him? Were he and "Bob" out on a date?
him: for instance, if I went out with Bob here, and bob thought it was a date and I did not
him: would YOU consider that a date
me: it's a pefect example.
me: i would say bob was on a date, but you were not.
him: but then bob was on a date with me.
me: yes, but you werent on a date with him.
me: two people can be in the same place and process it as a different experience.
me: bob experienced a date, you experienced an outing.
him: right, but from the perspective of waiter...are we on a
date?
me: the waiter doesn't have enough information to determine what it was, lest he knew your intentions.
him: right, he is completely independent.
me: right, he doesn't have enough information to assess what
the event was.
him: so if someone asked him at gunpoint "are those 2 on a date". the honest answer woudl be?
me: he could assume, but he could never know.
me: or, he may have a different definition of date
him: hrm...interesting
me: maybe two people sharing a meal is a date, regardless of their intentions.
him: that is true...I find the definition swings wildly
me: it does.

i got nothing.
No, really, stop reading now. I have nothing of interest to report, comment on or rant about.
I don't know how I've done on my Biology test.
I don't know if I am able to switch my art class.
I don't know what school I am going to next semester, if I will going in the day of the evening or what I will be doing for money.
I do not know when I am getting married.
I certainly do not know if I am having kids, never mind when.
Please, get off the BPC and the MPC, and if you don't know what these are, don't ask.
I haven't finished my song,
My cats scream at night and I don't know why.
Really, drive through.
