"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

This is a leading dichotomy. Balance is best. If one had to choose you go with the spiritual, but no one's holding a gun to anyone's head.

Sex is listed twice on Maslow's Hierarchy chart for a reason.
