Ok, how come we don't have Smiths speed dating in Salt Lake City?! New York does it, I don't know why we don't do it. It's a well-known fact that Utahns love 80s music; I think Smiths speed dating could be a huge success here.
This idea is absolutely brilliant: speed dating to Smiths songs. One song equals one date. So you start talking to someone when "Panic" starts, and then switch tables when "How Soon Is Now" takes its place (praying, I would imagine, that your next date isn't a total dork, because "How Soon Is Now" clocks in at about six minutes). Would I go to a Smiths speed dating event? Absolutely. Even though Smiths/Morrissey fans abound online, I have yet to meet a true fan in real life. To be quite honest, I'd like to meet one. And if it was a non-mutant guy who wanted to get all sarcastic and go to Morrissey shows we me, so much the better!

2 Feel free to agree with me:
I happen to love speed dating because it gives me a good opportunity to brush up on my ability to lie. I've gotten pretty good at it.
My attitude: Ask me a stupid question, and you will get a total BS answer. It seems fair.
I agree, Taradise. I'd be interested to see the success rates of speed dating (specifically the percentage of people who go on to get married after meeting while speed dating).
Speed dating seems a bit desperate to me, but we Smiths/Morrissey fans are a desperate lot. :)
