Thursday sounds great!

What if you said "yes" to every schmuck who asked you out on a date (cue doom music). Luckily, we don't have to engage in that ghastly social experiment--you'd have to drug me--because Ms. Maria Dahvana Headley did it for us.

Increasingly frustrated by her dating life, Headley decided to
spend one year responding positively to all flirting and saying yes to literally anyone who asked her out. The ensuing 150 dates included a homeless man, several non-English speakers, 10 taxi drivers, two lesbians and a mime.
And she documented her whole year of hellish (and not so hellish) dates in a book.

Thanks to Dave for the story.
