First date with a girl: I open the car door for her when I pick her up. As she gets in, she hooks a hoop earing on the corner of the door and rips it out of her ear. The next 6 hours are getting her through ER to get stitched up.

Funny enough, I did get a second date and we hung out for about a year after that.

It’s a terrible date but I can see how it creates a bond.

As a guy who does woodwork, and other DIY stuff, I'd be terrified of wearing large earings if I were a girl. Heck I'm already terrified of wearing a ring.

Heck, I don't wear gloves around the drill press, even if the metal I'm working on is hot and sharp. I've seen what happens there.

I never wear any sort of thick gloves, excluding gardening. I find that thick woven gloves only get your hands sucked into worse circumstances.

I’m cracking up

At first glance I thought the girl hooked the earring on the door and tore her ear to guilt you into paying the medical expenses on purpose, lol.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

Well, medical expenses aren't a thing where I'm from, so probably not.
