About This Quote

The record for most time spent on a date without an insult was 99 minutes and 21 seconds. It happened in 1964 when Eric and Peggy Knudsen went on a date to a movie. Below is what they were thinking during the almost hour long conversation. Peggy: "Do I look fat in this dress?" Eric: "Yes." Peggy: "I never get the right shoes. I keep having to walk around in my heels at work." Eric: "You can't wear your tennis shoes to work." Peksh: "But you like my tennis shoes." Eric: "I like your legs and your feet and everything else, but if you wore tennis shoes, we would have to end this date." Peksh: “Can we start over?” Eric: “Alright, how about if we try not to say anything insulting for a while?” Peksh: “Thirty seconds! We almost made it to thirty seconds without an insult!” Eric: “We did make it 30 seconds without an insult, didn't we?” Peksh: "This is the longest we've ever been on a date without saying something insulting." Eric: “Yeah, that’s true.”
