After meeting in class, see 'Titanic,' go bowling, then break up on the Diag

In Class

When you're thinking about CRISPing, class times are not the only thing to take into account. You might also want to consider how many, and what kinds, of attractive people will be in the class. Just a suggestion.

LOUIS BROWN/Daily The Arb is a great place for dates - or to play fetch, as Pharmacology graduate student Alisa Stetzer and her dog Bentley have discovered.

Best Pickup Line:

"Nice shoes. Let's fuck."

These days no one likes to play games. So why beat around the bush? If you're going to go down that road eventually, you might as well get out your plans from the jump!

Best Rejection Line: "No."

Again, as no one likes to play games, rejections these days are blunt, quick and to the point. Yet they linger in the ego for hours or days, depending on how drunk one is at the time.

Best Place for a First

Date:

The Arb

The best dates are the ones that cost the least amount of money, but give the best effect. The Arb offers the best of both worlds: It's free and romantic, and the natural suroundings bring out the animal instincts in us all.

Best Secret Rendezvous:

The Arb

Do you belong on Jerry Springer? If you don't want your significant other to know you're cheating, set up a secret meeting in the Arb.

Best Place to Break Up:

The Diag

Planning on dumping someone? Do it somewhere with a lot of people around - that way yelling is kept to a minimum. And the Diag is certain to have several passersby at all hours of the day and night.

Best Unusual Date Idea:

Bowling/Ice-Skating (tie)

If the Arb is too romantic, try bowling. Or if that's too sexual, try ice-skating. Don't forget to pretend-fall on your date.

Best Date Movie:

"Titanic"

This movie already has enough praise. But Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio are bound to get everyone in the mood for love or lust, whatever your intent may be.
