I know it’s a stretch but how do I shorten the distance of distrust?
Personally, I’d recommend therapy.
Remember to tilt your head down, way down, until your neck strains.
Then look them in the eye… and ask them to speak up when they answer.
by asking them to make you a mechanical device
First you need to take a bath. They can’t respond to your date request if they can’t breathe
Just like any other person, really. You confidently approach them, compliment their gizmos and ask if they have anything else to show you. Oh and drinks help too, I guess.
Edit: Not sure how I accidentally quoted you. Maybe I need less of the drinks.
Lift the Gnome up so the Gnome can pick the date off the tree.
Grumbles says it’s something involving cookies.
But he seems somewhat singularly focused.
You don’t!
This is very simple…
First you must learn calculus and advanced thermodynamics. Afterwards build a very complicated contraption which exists as a solution to an everyday issue that doesn’t actually; in other words, make a life hack.
Next, and this is the most important part, you must provide me with a pound of maple glazed sausage paddies for half a week. Once that’s done you’re ready to ask out your pint-sized pretty. Simply approach with your crappy life hack and present it to her then recite at least ten digits of pi; bonus points for each additional one. Finally regale her with the anti-life equation recited backwards and pose a theoretical query about social science; for example, is it ethical to give random people advice on things you actually know nothing about while trying to make it seem like you’re an expert by dragging your answer on as long as you possibly can with instructions you’re actively pulling out of your butt in the very moment? Mind that is, as I’ve stated before, a mere example and entirely hypothetical.
Also don’t try to physically pick her up unless asked. To do anything else is a bad omen, I guess maybe. You can trust me on all of this, I’m totally and completely trustworthy and knowledgeable on the subject as far as you know.
Addendum:
I forgot to mention that you also get bonus points for reciting the lyrics to any song by a 90’s pop band while playing the riff to Legend’s The Destroyer.
presents gnome with cookie bouquet I’d crumble for you!
Might I recommend some severed human male paladin heads? That should help start the courtship process
…
What?
Yes? Stormwind Guard?
This is the thread right here!
With words.
Come now, there’s no challenge in that.
…Also that solution doesn’t entail me getting sausage paddies.
i do it with money
That’s illegal in most states.
Well as a gnome fancier I would suggest starting with a gift. Most Gnomes make it easy to tell what they are into - it’s in the name.
It’s no small task to win the favor of a gnome. I might suggest you bring them a gift.
