I used to play this with my friends back when. There was a trick to twisting the doorknob and, if you knew it, you could get the dream date every time!
That sounds kind of icky, doesn’t it!

A game that involves a girl winning by wearing clothes that attract the attention of dim-witted fraternity boys and school athletes – what could go wrong?

It’s not that teen girls might do this, it’s the stereotype that that’s WHAT they ALL do that’s a problem. Teen girls, are, surprisingly, multifaceted individuals who have varied interests and shouldn’t be imagined to be so one-dimensional.

You think that’s creepy? Well, I have it on very good authority that Colonel Mustard did it in the library with the candlestick.

I had that in the 60s. I kind of liked the “dud” best, although we never really played the game, just took turns twisting the door knob and guessing which one would come up. To this day I still get the song stuck in my head.

You know what I wouldn’t give a kid today?
Ah, fuck it. Sure I would, I never burnt myself that badly.

Yeah, but that’s yet another stereotype about many women - we’re all just gold diggers out to sell our vaginas to the highest bidder…
Some of us, of course, are dweebs ourselves!

I was referring to myself. Only I was joking because I am not really funny. Which is ok, my mom says looks aren’t everything.
Well of course not all, but some. And not just women. I’d do it, but let’s be honest, no one pays for tripe if they can afford Fillet Mignon

Well, I thought it was funny, because I kind of thought you were referring to yourself.

This one was better than a chemistry set, not only did you work with melting plastic fire hazard, but you could easily smash your fingers

We had one of those, too. We never put anything together, we just liked melting the plastic. Now this was my favorite, I wish I still had it.
