The funniest thing, DZ, was the absolutely sky-high interest she had in me. Sure I may as well explain the whole incident...
This happened when I was standing at a bar in a club in Dublin, talking to a guy from NYC. We were talking about travel - he'd been to 41 states of the US, I've been to 26. Anyways he was a cool guy and natural DJ. I tipped him off on some cool places to hang out and he bought me a drink.
This chick was standing behind us and had heard the entire talk, including that I was a programmer working for XYZ Inc.
I don't know how it worked, but when the guy left me to try his own sarge I was standing and finishing this drink. She comes up to me and asks straight out if I'll buy her a drink. I said "No, sorry, I don't do that".
Then she says that she knows that a) I just got a free drink, and b) I'm a professional earning more than her (she's a student). I still said "No, I'm sorry, but it's against my principles" (she was a little annoyed).
Then she used that line I gave earlier - "I'll give you a dance if you buy me a drink". And you know the rest.
The amazing thing was that she demanded my number, and left me a voice-mail the next afternoon (I was spending quality time with the girl I actually picked up the previous night so didn't answer)
Man, I love this site.
