Also, when someone says "What?" when you ask them if they'd like to go paddle boating, you don't take say "It's like a cross between a boat an a bicycle."
The first time I asked a girl out, a quiet hallway suddenly filled with people trying to find their room. (It was a newly constructed hall and people were still a little lost.) Needless to say, epic flub. Laugh and move on.
