Comment preview: 80s song: ["Don't You Want Me Baby"](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPudE8nDog0) by The Human League. Everybody knows the chorus ("don't you want me baby, don't you want me, ohhhh oh-oh-oh"), but the song is actually really dark. It's about a guy who can ....
Comment preview: A guy I was really into said he wanted to "treat me to dinner". I agreed. I ordered the cheapest things on the menu, and he ordered the priciest drinks and entree. I'm a broke college student and had like $10 left to my name at the time. We got the bill, ....
