Sometimes I wish it were socially appropriate to say things like this:
Hey, guy studying at the Exposé. You see me, and I see you. Yes, it's true that I find your eyebrow ring distasteful, and I'm sure there are things about me you find unsavory--my skinniness perhaps? or maybe the sound of my voice is a little grating?--but I'm tired of making and subsequently averting eye contact. Let's just address this elephant and get it over with. I think we should get some coffee some time or go on some other kind of outing. I'm willing to try you on, to ignore that eyebrow ring and the fact that you sometimes look a little angry. The number of gays out there is limited, and at this point, I feel like I'm steadily moving through them. So let's give this a go. I'm Sam, by the way. What's your name?
Admittedly, I could probably get away with just saying those last two sentences, but I feel like the whole rant would just make everything much easier.
