I love bumper stickers. For some reason I get great joy when somebody pulls up behind me at a stop light and I can read their lips as they say “Andrew Peterson is my friend. Who is Andrew Peterson?”

So Wednesday on the way home, I saw a bumper sticker that said “MyReallyBadDate.com.” That’s it. Well, being the sick and twisted person that I am, I thought to myself, “Oh how cool. A web site where you can submit stories about how bad some date was. That would be fairly entertaining.” Knowing that I would forget to go look at the site, I quickly wrote down the URL on the back of a gas receipt.

Last night I finally got a chance to go look at the site. At first glance, it appeared to be what I expected. And it had video testimonials. Oh how cool…I get to watch some girl talking about a miserable experience with some guy. Digging a little deeper into the site, I found out what it’s really about: it’s a Bible study group! I literally laughed out loud. Their concept (as I’m able to understand it) is that if you are having lots of bad dates, maybe the problem is you. It’s about time somebody figured that out. Their weekly Bible study claims it teaches you how to have better dates.

Since I’m not exactly a part of Atlanta’s dating scene, this isn’t for me. (And I should add that I know nothing about the folks at North Point Community Church, so if they end up being snake-handling psyco freaks and you get bit by a copperhead, don’t blame me.) But I’ve got to give kudos to them for such a clever marketing angle on their Bible study group. So if you’re looking for a way to have better dates, or if you want to find out if they have any copperheads on hand, check out MyReallyBadDate.com.
