[QUOTE=Pascall;34377581]So I went to the library saw a cute guy there who was shelving books tried to think of ways to talk to him Ended up asking him where a particular Andy Warhol book went because I wanted to put it back he took it and smiled but then I went back to looking and forgot what I was doing initially but when I turned around to ask if he worked there or if he was just volunteering, he disappeared. I spent another ten minutes walking around, looking for random books while trying to find him again but he was GONE I am UPSET not really but it kind of sucked lol[/QUOTE] I honestly wouldn't try picking someone up at the library. Not because it is lame or anything like that, it is just that people there are not in the mindset to really talk, hell the basic rule of a library is quietness. The library will have people who are either frantically trying to study under stress or simply as Johnnymo said, focusing on something expecting peace and quiet. It would be like me walking up to someone in a grocery store and asking "so do you come here often?" Which also has a non-intentional fat joke that I would pretty much end up with a fist to my face.

[/QUOTE] well that was like 93% me being a loser nerde

Well he was either volunteering or working there, since he was shelving books, not sitting and reading. So I figured it wouldn't be too big a deal. I wouldn't try and talk to someone who is just there to read. That would be rude.

That would be like me going to the grocery store the next day after the earlier incident and trying to hold a conversation with one of the shelf packers. "hey baby, I would totally pack your shelf." This time I would be maced. edit- What I am trying to say is that the library isn't the best place to hook up, though you do have the right mindset since youre hunting the mature type.

Well I wasn't going to pull him aside for a deep in-depth conversation about every aspect of his life. I mostly just wanted to know if he worked there or not.

You could try retirement homes though, theyre mature and you wouldn't have to worry about long term commitments.

he could be shy

[QUOTE=Mon;34379059]he could be shy[/QUOTE] Or intimidated. "Oh shit it is a facepunch mod, act cool, act cool, oh man she is going to talk to me!" "hey...where would this andy warhol book go?" "SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

[QUOTE=thisispain;34379056]this sounds like an early scene from one of those romantic comedies. don't worry pascall you'll end up sleeping with him once you realize that through the power of true love one can overcome anything.[/QUOTE] I prefer the disney lesson that if you see a girl and she's cute you should definitely marry her immediately after your first kiss after a tense life-threatening moment because those relationships always last and dating is for chumps

[QUOTE=1chains1;34379119]Or intimidated. "Oh shit it is a facepunch mod, act cool, act cool, oh man she is going to talk to me!" "hey...where would this andy warhol book go?" "SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"[/QUOTE] Chains. I'm dying.

[QUOTE=Makol;34379128]Chains. I'm dying.[/QUOTE] That's good! Women for some reason find dying really romantic. Hell, if you budget your time before you kick the bucket you could get some pretty decent action.

I met greenbandit at a Sony store at the mall the other day he was like "are you pascall" and I was like "um yeah" and he was all "i'm greenbandit hi" and I was just all casual like "oh hey that's really weird that I see you here! hi!" and then he walked off after a moment of odd silence It was very weird.

what nerdes [editline]24th January 2012[/editline] if I saw a facepuncher in real life I would punch them in the face that is how we are meant to greet each other

I tried to keep it not awkward because I had a friend with me but it was kind of inavoidable, the way GB carried on, being fidgety while he was talking.

he goes on facepunch you can't expect him to be brad pitt

Also that is one of the reasons why I don't think I will ever go hang with someone in my area from facepunch, it would just be me wasting gas to sit awkwardly with them for 2 hours or so. The possibility of both people ending up hating the others' guts is also an option I like to avoid.

facepunchers would probably throw eggs at me in public i tend to have that effect over the internet i'm not supposed to use facebook for exactly that reason

[QUOTE=thisispain;34379717]facepunchers would probably throw eggs at me in public i tend to have that effect over the internet i'm not supposed to use facebook for exactly that reason[/QUOTE] I wouldn't. If you were chill and didnt act like an asshat I would probably cook you eggs instead of throwing them at you. I always make it a point to cook my friends food when they hang out.

ohohoho man i would love to pie thisispain

I'm never really awkward with new people unless THEY make it awkward. If I met someone from Facepunch, I'd act just the same as if it were a new person from anywhere else. Unless they creep me out over the internet. Then that'd probably transfer over.

uh i mean uh make a pie for uh thisispain

I could be such a creeper that even I don't know it and am doomed to mouth breathe heavily while standing over peoples' shoulders for the rest of my life. edit- what a twist!

[QUOTE=1chains1;34379803]I am honestly surprised by the fact that I haven't seen a single creeper on this site stalking any of the lady facepunchers. [/QUOTE] ahem, OIFY. there's a collection of female FP pictures

[QUOTE=thisispain;34379816]ahem, OIFY. there's a collection of female FP pictures[/QUOTE] I am not a "GLOD" member so I was unaware. It makes me wonder though if in another dimension facepunch was populated by mostly girls and they had a creepy thread of guy FP pictures, if I would considered hot enough to be in it? Such thoughts will never be answered, alas!

[QUOTE=1chains1;34379848]I am not a "GLOD" member so I was unaware. [/QUOTE] OIFY has nothing to do with gold member. oify is where all the freaks hang/hung out

[QUOTE=thisispain;34379864]OIFY has nothing to do with gold member. oify is where all the freaks hang/hung out[/QUOTE] I always avoided it, but assumed you had to be a gold member to enter it. I am kind of tempted to find the chillest people on facepunch, get them together at a huge party then behind their backs invite the creepiest people I can find on this site. Film the results.

One of them apparently went to high school with me :l

[QUOTE=Makol;34380148]I know of two people who stalked female facepunchers (aka pascall). One of them apparently went to high school with me :l[/QUOTE] I wish I had stalkers, I think that would be a pretty good confidence boost.

i'd go on a pub crawl with you guys, sure
