Don’t use any verbs during the entire meal.

Feed imaginary friends, or toy dolls you’ve brought along.

Fill your pockets with sugar packets, as well as salt and pepper shakers, silverware, floral arrangements… i.e anything on the table that isn’t bolted down.

Lick your plate. Offer to lick theirs.

Make funny faces at other patrons, then sneer at their reactions.

Make odd allusions to dangerous religious cults.

Order a bucket of lard.

Order beef tongue. Make lewd comparisons or comments.

Order for your date. Order something nasty.

Stand up every five minutes, circle your table with your arms outstretched, and make airplane sounds.

Stare at your date’s neck, and grind your teeth audibly.

Take a break, and go into the restroom. When you return to the table, throw a spare pair of underwear on the back of one of the chairs. Insist that they just need airing out.
