20. MEME UP!
"Have you met Ted?"
the meme
THE SCENE
So you're at a bar. Or a club. Or a Starbucks. Or the post office. You get my point.
Anyway, you're just minding your own business when all of a sudden, this blonde guy in a (well-pressed, expertly tailored) suit comes up to you and announces that he's gonna be your wingman. Without waiting for a response, he finds the closest (moderately attractive) nearby citizen and says to them,
"Hi! Have you met Ted?"
Except it's not Ted. It's you. How in the world does this dude know your name? Unfortunately, you don't get to find out, because--wait, where did that guy go, anyway?
Great. Now you're faced with the more pressing matter of smalltalk with the unwitting target. You can always walk away, or... or maybe you can believe in the divine cosmic powers of Barney Stinson.
Who knows? This night could be legen -- wait for it -- dary.
THE MEME
STEP ONE
Leave a comment with your character's name and fandom in the subject title.
STEP TWO
Assume your "wingman" has come and gone, leaving you to chat it up with the person who responds to your thread.
STEP THREE
???
STEP FOUR
Stop being sad. START BEING AWESOME.
Oh, and by the way? You've been suited up.
