Woman Live-Tweets Awkward First Date Conversation From Cafe
Canadian blogger Anne Thériault was minding her own business in a Toronto coffee shop when she heard a date dipped in so much douchebaggery, she actually LIVE-TWEETED the spectacle.
Using her smartphone, Thériault documented the 30-minute date in which the guy showed no apparent interest in the girl he was with. In addition to asking her whether she’d “ever dated a writer” (hint; that was his job), he also confessed to looking “like James Franco”, and told her his Puttanesca pasta sauce was even better than his friend’s… who, incidentally, is a chef. What a surprise, no?
Unsurprisringly, the girl had “a look of mild panic” and came up with one of the best excuses to get out of out of what was possibly the dullest half hour of her life.
Think you’ve had Tinder nightmares? Spare a thought for this girl who had a real one!

I've met lots of guys (and girls) like this one. I was a full-time working musician for 38 years (with a degree in music so not a wannabe rock star), also a part-time PUBLISHED writer. Narcissistic attention-seekers like this one approached me all the time, trying desperately to insinuate themselves in my life. Most are living off their parents or a significant other and claiming to be 'artists looking for their big break' so they don't have to get a job. They always believe they're more talented, intelligent, and sensitive than everyone else. And it's amazing how many of them claim to be screen-writers—it's because they want to steal a little glitter from Hollywood as well. This girl didn't run fast enough! BTW, music and writing aren't all that glamorous or high-paying in the real world lol.
I just went back and re-read that whole thing in Brian's voice. Makes much more sense now.
