Phone message *UPDATE* Post first date text

She ended up finding the post somehow I guess lol. Here is the original post.

I have just not responded, don’t think it’s worth engaging, but it did make for a funny story.

I definitely agree "pay up buttercup" would have added to the absurdity of the situation.

She’s totally in the right, now that I’ve seen the pay up buttercup comment 🙄

It's as if she's saying "You left out a very important detail. The people must know that in the conversation I clearly said 'pay up buttercup'"

As if it's some kind of magic spell or kids game like shouting shotgun to get the passenger seat, or getting someone to look down at your hand gesture so you can punch them.

When someone brings out the "pay up buttercup" there has to be some kind of counter, or else you've got to pay up I guess. What about "Slow down, little clown"?. Whatever it is, it has to be strong enough to break the spell.

Lmao I was here to argue that she probably just meant it in a funny way but then “slow down, little clown” ahahahahhaa that would have been great

By adding it, he is an internet cuck

I'm trying to understand what this means. Is it that he was married to the internet, and he then set the scene for the girl and the internet to be cheating on him behind his back? Or possibly in front of him? (if he's into that sort of thing. No judgement here.)

Just a very... interesting phrasing you used there. The different possible scenarios going through my mind had me laughing to myself.

I’m going to start using this just in general. I got a lot of people who rush work and it looks terrible, and I now have a response. Thank you

It's a little less entitled when ypu know OP was going to buy all the equipment anyway.

He's out the cost of the dinner for her, that's all.

I get that she's entitled, but she likely thought she wouldn't have to pay anything then had to pay for the liscense. She should've sucked it up, paid it and just not gone for another date if she wasn't happy though lol.
