7. Oh, are you going on a blind date?
Don't worry, most guys on the dating scene aren't harvesting organs for the creation of abominations before god and man, and secretly growing 'Triffids' in their garden and feeding them bits of puppies and kittens and sunshine and unicorns.
Only a few are.

11. If he wears a lab coat, his hear is disheveled and he frequently says
'the fools! i'll show them all!' and he takes measurements of the size of your 'brain pan,' then i'd worry.

31. Huh... never noticed that
I'll hafta pay closer attention next time it's on Cinema Insomnia With Mr. Lobo.



Man, that sucker would make a great double bill with "X — The Man With the X-Ray Eyes." :D

32. I caught it on MST3K
Only sane way to watch it is with 2 robots and a guy making fun of it.

33. I'd tend to agree
though I've never seen MST3K. By the time I was aware of what it is, it wasn't on any stations I can get. :(



When you watch it on Cinema Insomnia, though, just before the car wreck, Mr. Lobo breaks in and says, "Put on your Blood-O-Vision Glasses now."

9. I think the key is to have no expectations whatsoever...
that just sets you up for disappointment. It is going to be just as awkward for him as well, break the ice, try to have a good time, and for all that is good in the world, get lucky! ;)

:D

12. at the risk of sounding like a self-fulfilling prophecy...
I truly do doubt those words.
