Describe your ideal match
Intelligent, savvy conversationalist; knows enough about movies to put up with the fact that I invariably go on too long about them (though arguments are okay); prefers culture and crashing with a good flick to things like roller rinks and dancing (though karaoke is negotiable); hates when the music is too loud to talk; probably short (NB: I'm 5'6")

Name one thing a date could do that would make you go crazy (in a good way).
Utter the line, "No kidding! I went through *my* Hitchcock phase when I was seven."
