5 First Great Date Ideas

We are old enough now to figure out that dinner and movie doesn’t work for a 1st date. Talk for an hour at dinner and then not talk for 2 hours at a movie. No good.

Here are some quick ideas for a first date:

1) Play video games – PS3, Wii, Xbox 360, it doesn’t matter. If your date is into video games, it might be time for some Street Fighter Turbo or some Wii Boxing.

2) Visit a new restaurant – New restaurants pop up all the time. Take 5-10 new restaurants put them in a hat and pick one out and go to it. It’s a gamble but worth the shot.

3) Eat in at your/her place- Ask before doing it but if she clears it, just order in.

4) The Aquarium/Zoo- Who doesn’t like the zoo? I am scared of snakes, but they are locked away. Show interest in all the animals.

5)Meet up for a drink- Harmless. If it doesn’t work out, you can leave it there and just move on.Who knows, she might stay around for dinner.

5 Rules of Bar Etiquette

So after the @dapswebsite party Friday night I realized some people do not know how to get served at a bar. I guess its one of those things that you have to learn yourself but I’m here to tell you before you act like a fool.

1) The bartenders see you: I know all of us can’t wait to get served but just have patience or leave. Some bars only operate 1 or 2 bartenders on a busy night so just wait to get served and when you do get served have manners like “Thank You”.

2) Know What You’re Drinking: You just ordered 16 shots and 8 drinks for the cast of Jersey Shore and the bartender had it to you in less than 5 minutes. Have your money out when the bartender gets back. Even if you don’t know how much you’re going to spend take out a 50 dollar bill.

P.S. Run a tab. It’s fast and easy and you only have to figure out the tip once

3) Don’t Fight: If you have to take it outside.

4) Don’t Complain About Prices: At most bars the cover/door charge goes to the band. The bar does not make any money off of that. When I go see the @Avonjunkies play I know that they bust their ass and deserve to get paid.

5) Don’t Expect Free Drinks. EVER: Some bartenders will buy you a drink/shot. Some won’t. Get over the fact if you didn’t get a free beer for the night. My cousins a restaurant/bar manager in D.C. and under no circumstances are they allowed to give out free drinks. They even have a systems that measure how much alcohol was poured for each shot. So relax cowboy.

Bonus 6) ALWAYS TIP

Budget Drinking

OK, it’s Friday night and you want to get drunk, but you don’t have a lot of cash. This used to be a problem, but not anymore because today we are going to learn how to get shit-faced without spending a lot of money.

Step 1 is to pre-game. We all know it, we’ve all done it, now it’s time to practice it regularly. You know how this works, pound a couple of drinks before you leave the house and I suggest to go as far as mixing up a coffee cup for the road. Just don’t go nuts, you want to be able to walk when you get to the bar. You’re about to leave your house and there is just one thing left to take care of, flasks. If you have them, fill ‘em, as many as you can conceal. If you don’t, your fucked, maybe next time. Let’s go out.

Looking Wealthier Than You Are

Before we begin, let’s take a moment to talk about a few things we know. First off, we know that the majority of us, especially in this economy, don’t have a lot of extra cash to throw around. That being said, we also know that 99% of women are evil, money hungry leaches who want nothing to do with you unless your loaded. Now, I’m not talking about all women, but this type of woman, is more than likely the type you will run into if you are trying to pick them up at a bar or a club. So if you as the average-Joe are going to have any chance of obtaining what’s more than likely the one thing these women are good for, she’s gonna have to think your rich. This may seem impossible, but I assure you it isn’t.

Talking to Women

What up bitches? I’m back. I hope you enjoyed Carlo’s edition of The Bachelor’s Guide. He gave some pretty sound advice on first dates. But as helpful as it was, the truth is, you’ve got to learn to crawl before you can run. So, that’s why this week, we are going to discuss the meat and potato’s of bachelor’s life. And that is, knowing how to talk to women.
