Don’t ask me how I came up with this revelation this morning, but I did.
I remember Philipp asking me about ‘dating’ in the North American context. What is dating? What is going out? What is being with a person? I’m sure we’ll go more in depth on this issue in his biography (as it is a fascinating subject), but I think I realized where my first introduction to dating stemmed from.
Archie comics!
It always confused me how Archie would be either with Betty or Veronica. It took me many years to realize that if you go out on a date with a person, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t go date other people. That always threw me for a loop. “Archie, how the heck can you be with Veronica if you’re with Betty?”
Ha ha, that is the most random thought I’ve had in awhile but I just wanted to point out that everything we all know about dating stems from actions of others…namely Archie and the gang (well, at least in my case.)

One reply on “Archie, you thief.”
oh Archie comics, aren’t they the best? Speaking about Archies, don’t you find that Zack’s (restaurant in the market) looks just like Pop’s (restaurant in the Archie comics) ? I’m sure I’m not the only one that realised that, but it’s awesome! Love that place, mmmm those milkshakes!
