I just don't get itPoor Semiret, he's foreign and has no idea if he "should laugh about the whole 'only playing music when they are out of ice cream' thing or not." There's also a Far Side cartoon that has had him stumped for almost 20 years.
What don't you understand? What have you politely gone along with whilst internally going WTF?

Not seeming too keenDid I miss something? Are we still a nation of Victorian era prudes for whom showing emotion is a faux pas on the same level as paedophilia? Why is it that, after having bade farewell to a young lovely after an evening's fun, the social imperative is to act like an awkward teenager?!
Christ, an average courtship used to be "Boy meets Girl". Now, it's "Boy goes out for a weekend's worth of merriment; Boy meets up with Girl; Boy is attracted to this Girl; this Girl is attracted to Boy;Boy and Girl spend entire evening together; Boy gets back and fizzes around with excitement at having met Girl whom he really likes; Boy makes enquiries of mutual Boys to find out what Girl thought of Boy, Boy finds out that Girl was equally as besotted; Boy forces self not to ring, text, email, or contact Girl in any way ; Girl sends non-committal message via text/email (because Boy won't answer the phone in case it's Girl, and Girl has to be non-committal as Girl must also be sure "Not To Seem Too Keen"); Boy gets utterly disheartened at non-committal nature of message and writes off all hope of relationship with Girl; Boy does not reply to Girl; Girl assumes Boy is not interested; Repeat from start."
Frankly, it makes me want to spend all day playing World of Warcraft, before having a whore delivered for an Emptying session.
