  • V-day trolling?

    Sort of considering booking a table for one in a restaurant on the evening of the 14th Feb and eating alone. Maybe sobbing gently into my drink or looking mournful.

    Perhaps book a table for two?

    Just wondering what peoples' reactions would be.

    Thoughts?

      Both great ideas, although I'm leaning toward the two-top. It wouldn't actually take any more away from the waitron (unless you have one-tops in GB?) and is much more woeful. Maybe you could bring along a nice bouquet for the other chair?

        Raps, you are so twisted!!!
        Too tired of living and too tired to end it. What a conundrum.

          Ocasionally whisper "Why?" in amongst the sobs. Just to make everyone around you that much more uncomfortable and confused.

            Considering the date, I could just sit there and eat by myself and keep a peripheral eye out for those staring at me with pity. I'm pretty sure it would happen.

            Of course, there's the whole extra expense for a special day cost, but it might be worth it.

                It's so I can get ideas out of my head, I decided to put it in a blog in case people are bored or are curious as to the (many) things in progress.

                  Book a table for two, and at the other seat, prop up a framed picture of your right hand. Bonus points if you put a single rose in front of the picture.

                    I did consider a framed picture. Wasn't thinking of right hand, but am now.

                      I was thinking this, too.

                          Bonus points if you get the waitstaff in on it. And if anyone asks them about you, "Oh... oh, my... No, we don't talk about it..."

                            Make sure you get a couple of friends to book another nearby table, with a video camera...

                              Ok, this has gone from a simple joke (single guy in a restaurant, acting depressed) to involving props (photographs and flowers), waitstaff, and now additional 3rd parties to record it.

                              I'm just wondering how far this is going to go.
