Help me find a date in two days
Okay, I know the title sounds strange, but it's actually quite amusing if you think about it. I'm sure hundreds of ladies out there are looking for decent guys to go out with, and here I am, going to a wedding with no date. Allow me to explain.
(circa February 2008)
Bride: Have I told you I'm getting married on April 12? Can you make it?
Philos: You haven't told me, because if you had, you'd know that I wouldn't miss it for the world. (I know, blech! I'm that cheesy... can't help it. Plus, she's a really good friend of mine. Does that absolve me now?)
B: Okay, great! You bringing anyone?
P: Nope, nothing's changed.
B: I'll be saving you two seats anyway just in case you find someone.
(a couple of days ago)
B: Are you bringing anyone? I'm finalizing the seating arrangement.
P: It's not that I don't want to bring anyone. I just don't have anyone to bring....
B: Yet. Anyway, I'm still saving you two seats. See ya!
So here I am with a wedding to go to and two seats under my name, but no one to go with. I mentioned this to Joyfulchicken today, and, being the supportive friend that he is, he bet me a burger that there's no way in hell I can find a date in two days. I want to prove him wrong, so the wager is on.
Now I need your help. Can anyone here set me up with a date for this Saturday? If you know someone (women only... no dudes) interested in a free meal and willing to dress up for the occasion, just email the name and contact info (and maybe a Friendster link) to philos@chickenmafia.com before Saturday.
The wedding will start at 10 AM on April 12, 2008 at the Don Bosco Church in Makati. Reception will follow at Hotel Intercon.
Appendix A: Benefits of going on a date with Philos
1. You'll get a delicious free lunch at a nice hotel.
2. It will be fun because I'm a fun and friendly guy. And I won't be creepy, I promise. I'll be a gentleman.
3. You'll be free by early afternoon, which leaves you with enough time to find an evening date in case things don't go well (highly unlikely).
4. Who knows? I might just turn out to be Prince William in secret (or Harry, whoever is the good looking one--I mix them up all the time).
5. Did I mention the delicious free food?
So set me up please. And hurry... I only have two days.
Just grab Tiffy
For crying out loud.

Trying to be witty today huh :-P
It's your second wordplay of the day.
If he does
he learned from the best
I briefly remembered
some of your previous attempts at being witty, and... I'm scared :-P
Huh?
Refresh my memory :-)

No!
Let's bury the trauma.
Weird
I honestly don't remember anything :-|

Well,
good for you :-P
Uwah
Two straight entries on dates...
Haha I can just imagine JC saying it :P
To be fair,
his last entry wasn't really about dating... or was it?
I thought the last entry
he went there to find someone, forcibly?
Forcibly?
More like feebly :-D
Haha you're right
feebly is a better word :P
Well...
The first entry wasn't straight at all, hitting on a dude in a skirt and all :-P

Hahaha
Ouch :-D
carny's right
just ask tiffy? and hey, once u get there, just mingle with the crowd, but be careful, because, u dont know how ppl are connected (unless of course if already knew every1), u dont want to crap where u eat, just make sure u know wat u getting in to before u get into it? and good luck & be ur smooth charming self! =)
Smooth and charming?
Spoken like a true fan :-P
Why's everyone pimping Tiff
That was my first thought too >:)
Oi Tiff, care to drop a comment here? :-P
Violent reaction from Tiffy
in 5, 4, 3....
Nah. She visits this site once a month. We're safe.
Sorry I know :c
My bad.
I'd like to ask the same thing
Why is everyone pimping me? :/
I'm a kid!
She just looks like a kid
She's actually 47 years old.
I think
you guys should've raised the steaks a lot higher than just a burger. It would have definitely made things more interesting, given the time frame and all.
I'm cheap
Also, if the stakes are too high, Philos can easily win by hiring an escort :-D
I thought Jigs was being witty
with the 'steak'. No?
Hmm, yeah :-D
I missed it. Good one.
No age limits? =p
No age limits? =p
Portraying Philos as child molestor would be priceless.
Tiffy looks like a kid though, so it's covered anyway.

WTF Carney
What's with you? *bashes your head in*
Yay!
Violence!
25 new comments
and I thought Philos got replies from candidates :P
LOL @ Tiffy.
Yeah, so many comments
and still no date for Philos? Hehe.
What makes you think there'd be any takers?
Hmm... but wouldn't you take the offer if you were here?
Well, Chicky told me to visit this entry
And so I did :b
Philos proposed to you. What say you?
why do u need a go-between?
just go up to a girl you like and ask. sheesh, it's not rocket science.
Yeah, but I'm sure
Philos sucks at rocket science too :-D
Hahaha!
Ouch!

Truth be told
I'm not looking for a date, I'm just covering the bases--making sure I can say that I tried to find somebody to go with me and failed. That said, I'm closing the contest 22 minutes before 12mn. If you waited the last minute to submit an entry, I'm sorry, it's over.
Yay!
Burger!
So...it's April 13 now...
What happened?
I won >:)
Yay!
Simple
I dressed up, and went there by myself. I even manage to strike up a conversation with the ladies in my table. Not bad if I do say so myself. :)
Ladies IN your table?
Um, not bad indeed :-P
They put ladies in the tables these days?
Hmmm, I thought putting them in a cake was weird enough already.

Hmm
Soylent Green cakes?
Can you share
any of the Friendster links from any hot chick who e-mailed you?
I won the bet,
so I guess no hot chicks emailed him, hehehe.
Chinesemafia
at his best.
