I pulled these off of MSN & thought they were at least mildly humorous!

A tax(i)ing evening
“I called a cab one day to take me home from work, and after I got in, the driver and I started talking about relationships. He asked if I had a boyfriend, and when I said no, he told me he recently picked up a good-looking Wall Street big shot who lives in my town and is single. He said he had the guy’s email address and wanted to set me up, so I thought, ‘What the heck?’ and I gave him my number to pass along to the guy. Well, he called me a few weeks later, and we talked a few times on the phone. His voice was so sexy that I convinced myself he was my future husband, and we made a date. A week later, he picked me up and, well, let me put it this way: The sexy voice did not match the sexy guy I had imagined. Still, though, I decided to keep an open mind. Over dinner, our conversation was bad; 80 percent of it detailed his partying habits at the Jersey shore and all the women he had been with! He even went so far as to tell me he had caught an STD, but ‘everything’s cleared up now!’ I knew I needed to end things early, and I got out of there fast. It was certainly not a match made in cab heaven, but hey, you have to take some chances when you’re single!”

You booze, you lose
“I once had a blind date show up to pick me up two hours late! I had already figured he was standing me up, so I got into my pajamas and was watching a movie in bed. When he showed up drunk at my door, I was pretty annoyed, to say the least. He was barely apologetic, saying he was out with friends drinking and had lost track of time, which didn’t exactly qualify as a good reason, in my opinion. He even had the gall to suggest we begin our date right then and there since ‘(you are) already in bed and that’s probably where we’d end up anyway!’ Um, no thanks!”

I'll post more later but how about some comments on these.
Has anyone had similar experiences?
