Here is the thread where you list cultural choices that revealed themselves to be date-mistakes.

Or here's where we blame Blockbuster for our lack of charm and swarth.

I've put on such albums BECAUSE I didn't want to sleep with X and just wanted to go to bed. Awesome.

― Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 15:41 (twenty-two years ago)

which albums would those be?

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 15:42 (twenty-two years ago)

"Radio Days", my date angrily demanded to be taken home about a third of the way into it.

Anything by Godspeed.

I took my now-wife to see the Bothers Quay's "Institute Benjementa" early in our relationship. I fucking loved it. she nearly packed me in.

"Happiness" is unlikely to get you laid, unless both you and the person you are watching it with are unbelievably creepy. (Which is not to say it isn't a good movie. Or that creepy people shouldn't get laid occasionally.)

Took a girl to see Kids in what? 95, 96?
Long, quiet walk home.

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 16:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Trainspotting? Full Metal Jacket? How about making a potential sex partner sit through Yes's Tales From Topographic Oceans (even though there is of course some really sexy music contained within it)?

Top 10 bad date movies:

I Spit on Your Grave
Salo
SS Experiment Camp
In a Glass Cage
The New York Ripper
Last House on the Left
Forced Entry
Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS
Cannibal Holocaust
Faces of Death

Although if any girlfriend of mine found Adam Sandler even the least bit funny then she wouldn't be around for much longer. "The Waterboy" has got to be one of the worst films ever made.

― C-Man (C-Man), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 16:07 (twenty-two years ago)

I agree Salo is not a pleasant experience, and would end up being one of those episodes both will regret, and never speak of again.

Elephant.

― TEH ONE AN ONLEY DEANN GULBAREY (deangulberry), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 19:03 (twenty-two years ago)

i wasn't allowed to have music....

When I went to see Jackass: The Movie I was surprised to see so many teenage couples there. I'm betting they didn't go home and do it after that.

― Prude (Prude), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 20:44 (twenty-two years ago)

when I went to see Jackass, during the final hot wheels bit, this dude leaps up in a huff and drags his two under-10 kids out of the theatre.
I was like, w the f?
1. why did you bring your kids to this movie in the first place? did you think it was about that lovable donkey from Shrek?
2. nothing before that hinted that you shouldn't have brought your kids?
3. THE KIDS HAVE ALREADY SEEN THE X-Ray!

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 20:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Go, Go Second Time Virgin

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 20:49 (twenty-two years ago)

search: everything i've listened to and watched over the last two months apparently

― mark p (Mark P), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 21:28 (twenty-two years ago)

audition, apparently.

― mike bott, Tuesday, 30 December 2003 23:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I Love Institute Benjamenta too!

― jed (jed_e_3), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 23:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Werckmeister harmonies wasnt the best choice for me but i didnt really like the guy much anyway.

― jed (jed_e_3), Tuesday, 30 December 2003 23:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Top 10 bad date movies:

Runner-up: A Clockwork Orange.

― j.lu (j.lu), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 01:52 (twenty-two years ago)

none of them will ever get you laid.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 01:54 (twenty-two years ago)

Ah, remember this strip from Bloom County?

(Bobbi and Steve are sitting in Steve's Jeep)
Bobbi: Charming. A gold Jeep with a license plate that spells out "HORNY."
Steve: Yeah. Say, how 'bout a flick?
Bobbi: Okay. How about "Ordinary People"?
Steve: How 'bout "He Spits Upon Your Grave."
Bobbi: You're kidding.
Steve: Nope. Sounds great.
Bobbi: How does this stupid door open?
Steve: Here's one: "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre."

― Ernest P. (ernestp), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 04:04 (twenty-two years ago)

CONTEMPT!!!

― s1utsky (slutsky), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 05:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Steve is supposed to be the one character that's right in that Bloom strip, right? Because any world in which Ordinary People is better than Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a bad world.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 06:35 (twenty-two years ago)

And I can't think of a less hornifying movie lately than How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 06:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Travis Bickle learned this the hard way:
Music: Kris Kristofferson (so far, so good)
Movie: Sometime Sweet Susan and Swedish Marriage Manual (man, you blew it!)

And, she had that Kris K. album already. Dang!!

― Ernest P. (ernestp), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 07:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Anything recommended on ILM, by definition.

― Markelby (Mark C), Wednesday, 31 December 2003 11:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Spinktor, this is the NOT get you laid thread.

― TOMBOT, Wednesday, 31 December 2003 20:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Being taken to see in Liverpool the film 'Who Dares Wins'. At the time I was a militant socialist and yet I allowed this man to seduce me into watching this shite.
