LUCKY DIp<br />

29<br />

LUCKY DIP is CANTA’s brand new, totally not stolen blind date feature.<br />

This is a chance <strong>for</strong> UC students to find love, lust, and more importantly free Italian food.<br />

HOW IT WORKS: Two strangers, free dinner and drinks at Spags, and a written summary<br />

from each person that we broadcast to the world.<br />

ONE SIDE<br />

The evening began with a few cheeky wines out on the<br />

front deck with the gals, I knew it was a bit of a stitch up but<br />

sometimes you’ve just got to put yourself out there.<br />

Being the only single member of the family mum was thrilled<br />

that her eldest daughter was finally now on the quest <strong>for</strong> love,<br />

but if she had seen the drunken mess I was tripping out of<br />

the car and arriving fifteen minutes late to the restaurant she<br />

would not have been a happy lady.<br />

My date screamed ‘lad’ from the get go, ordering the spiciest<br />

food on the menu like he had a point to prove whilst spinning<br />

some ridiculous yarn about how he only likes red wine, he was<br />

oh so cultured. His ef<strong>for</strong>t at playing catch up was incredibly<br />

subpar on the alcohol front and on hearing that<br />

he was part of the intimate College House circle,<br />

this did not surprise me at all. He managed<br />

to slip in the conversation that he was 6 ft. 2<br />

which not going to lie is a big point scorer <strong>for</strong><br />

me, however because words such as lit, fam,<br />

breather and the phrase “stay scarfie” were<br />

tossed around so much it almost wiped half a<br />

foot off of his height.<br />

There wasn’t a quiet moment as it seemed we were both<br />

gifted with the ability to talk a ridiculous amount of shit,<br />

and I was extremely impressed as it’s not often I come across<br />

someone who talks more than I do. But then again, fuckboiz are<br />

generally blessed with the gift of the gab. All in all was a laugh,<br />

even though there are some patches I struggle to remember.<br />

Just some sneaky parting words to the man of the evening.<br />

Stay Humble x Cheers Canta!<br />

THE OTHER SIDE<br />

After a long hard day of getting swoll in the gym and tanning<br />

my rig to perfection, I chucked on my best pair of stubbies to<br />

see what this lovely broad had in store <strong>for</strong> me. After deleting a<br />

significant amount of piss pre-date, I was sufficiently lubricated<br />

and ready to give this a go.<br />

Like the gentleman I am, I delivered myself to the restaurant<br />

15 minutes early, just to make sure she wouldn’t have to wait<br />

on her own (boyfriend material). The lass turned up around<br />

10 minutes later, moist and ready <strong>for</strong> a night of activities. We<br />

ordered a great feed, and I was thoroughly impressed by the<br />

sheer amount of food she could consume, I was really starting<br />

to get into this girl. However she wouldn’t budge. I used all my<br />

best one liners including “you don’t look too shit tonight” and<br />

“you can fit a lot in that mouth can’t you”, but<br />

none of them helped me get to the next base.<br />

In a moment of desperateness, I went to the<br />

bathroom,<br />

quickly got on tinder, swiped right to every<br />

man and his dog, and effectively chatted some<br />

fresher-to-be to pick me up. In a swift attempt<br />

to avoid being seen, I popped out the back door,<br />

left her the bill and continued to top the night off how every<br />

lad dreams off - vomiting in the car and being told to piss off<br />

you pervert. They say chivalry is dead, but I just think girls<br />

need to lower their standards.<br />

Submit yourself,<br />

or some other<br />

obsessive Tinderer<br />

CANTA CUPID SAYS:<br />

Yeah, something isn’t adding up here. We<br />

know <strong>for</strong> a fact the date was paid <strong>for</strong>, and<br />

the guy was pushing 5’8 on a good day...<br />

Maybe we’ll leave these two on their own<br />

path to love, pre-loading and Italian food.<br />

Keep swiping right, I guess!<br />
