"Guy on a date" reminds me of a funny bus incident from a few years ago.
I was riding on a suburban line through West Vancouver on my way into town (BTW, West Van. is one of, if not *the* wealthiest neighbourhood in Canada) and four teenagers get on the bus, two males and two females. It's immediately apparent it is a first-date/double-date situation from the awkward body language. The girls sat down in the single seats near the middle of the bus on the drivers side. Boy #1 sits down sideways in the seat across the isle, facing his girl. Boy #2 goes to do the same. Unfortunately boy #2 is paying too much attention to his girl and not enough to where he is sitting. You see (because he didn't), his girl was sitting opposite the door. Boy #2 fell backwards into the stairwell and got his head stuck in the door. The bus had to stop so that boy #1 could step on the top stair to open the door so boy #2 can get his head back inside the bus. You've never heard so much laughter on a bus. One fellow commented that if someone had only video-taped the incident they would surely get the $10,000 prize on "America's Funniest Home Videos".
And for the rest of the ride into town, about half an hour, individuals on the bus would spontaneously burst into giggles recalling the stuation.

I still wonder how the rest of the date went.
