I'm 47-soon to be 48 next month
-
I am 44 years old
-
I drive for a ride-share company
-
and I'm a nanny to my nephews
-
I do usability assessments for websites,
-
which basically means that I test them
-
to see if they're accessible
for people with disabilities
-
I consider myself fairly fun
-
I would describe myself as fun
-
and funny
-
Interesting
-
Compassionate
-
Creative
-
I have some smarts
-
My perfect partner would be somebody who
is, I think, first intelligent
-
(skipping tape noise)
-
I have some smarts (laughs)
-
I love good brains
-
I wanna have a good conversation with
somebody
-
and I have no other expectations besides
that
-
-(Chad) Hey, are you Cat?
-Yeah
-
-Cat, I'm Chad
-Hi Chad
-
-Nice to meet you
-Holy crap
-
-Can I take a seat?
-Yeah, here
-
Thank you
-
Woah
-
-Don't fall
-No, I won't, I promise
-
-It's a true blind date
-It is a true blind date
-
You don't look blind
-
I was diagnosed when I was a teenager
-
Oh, ok
-
and I went through a blindness
rehabilitation program
-
-(laughs) You did?
-Yup
-
Oh, I'm sorry, that sounded like rehab
for blind people
-
I know, yeah, it pretty much is
-
8 hours a day, 5 days a week, I did it for
6 months
-
They teach you cane travel and braille and
all the technology and stuff like that
-
so I like to say it becomes a minor
-
-nuisance at best
-Right
-
-I'm not blind (laughs)
-Ok, good to know, ok, you didn't mention
-
that on the call, so I'm glad
-
And you're not deaf
-
-I'm not deaf
-Right
-
-You have a book here
-I do
-
Ok
-
If I really wanted to read it, I have a
way to do that
-
Really?
-
Yeah there's a device in my phone where I
can just take a picture of the page and it
-
reads it
-
-That's so awesome
-Yeah
-
-Ok, can we do it?
-Sure, you wanna check it out?
-
(Cat) Yeah (laughs) 'cause I want you to
read the title 'cause that's really funny
-
(Waiter) And there you go
Thanks
-
-(Waiter) This is the menu
-Ok great
-
(Waiter) so you can go ahead and check
it out
-
Here we go
-
(Phone) "The Guide to Infinite Sexual
Possibilities"
-
-Sexual what? What is that? Sexual Possi-
-Possibilities
-
-Nice, ok
-"The Ethical Slut, a Guide to Infinite
-
-Sexual Possibilities"
-Interesting. And this is casual reading
-
-for you, during your blind dates
-(Cat laughing) Yeah, yeah
-
Ok
-
So you brought it because you wanted to
have me read something or?
-
No I actually- I just got here early and I
just had it with me so
-
-Oh gotcha
-Em
-
-Ok
-I shouldn't have shared
-
It's a little embarrassing
-
So I'm gonna ha- Well you'll have to read
the menu with your... your-
-
-Oh yes
-little thing and I can help you, though,
-
-of course, 'cause I know how to read
-Yes
-
-(Waiter) Matcha green tea. Here we are
-(Cat) Oooo! Thank you
-
(Waiter) Alright, I'll be right back for
you guys
-
-Ok
-Alright, thank you
-
Well what do you do?
-
-I drive for Lift
-Ok
-
-I know it's not really exciting but
-I just took a Lift here
-
You did? Yay! You drove Lift and not Uber?
-
I mean, you know, kinda given my
situation, right, I can't drive
-
(Cat laughs)
-
It's like the one thing blind guys cannot
do under any circum-
-
There's not an app for that?
-
There is not an app for that yet
-
-I mean, yeah
-Do you know what I like about you being
-
-blind?
-What?
-
-You're not staring at my boobs
-Oh, well, that's true. That's true,
-
(Cat laughing)
I'm staring at- I'm staring at your mouth
-
(Cat, still laughing and stammering too)
I'm sorry
-
-I get nervous on dates, I'll admit
-Do you?
-
Yes, I'm a puss
-
Do you need to... see my face?
-
No, no it's ok
(Cat cackling)
-
-I never do that on the first date
-Good call
-
Yeah, it's a little- a little weird
-
(upbeat electronic music overlay)
-
I could look like a complete slob and
stuff this in my face
-
Do it. I won't tell
-
(stammering) Oh here we go. Do you need a-
Here's a spoon for you
-
Oh thank you
-
I'll just- I wont judge the slurping, I
promise
-
Aren't you supposed to slurp? Isn't that
supposed to be like a cultural thing that
-
-says that you enjoy the food
-I would assume there's some cultures that
-
do that
-
(Cat) I'm gonna try it
-
Let's assume it's this one
-
I want you to know I'm picking my teeth in
front of you and you can't tell
-
Not Synced
Ok. Go for it
-
Not Synced
(upbeat instrumental music overlay)
-
Not Synced
I could flash you and you wouldn't even
appreciate it
-
Not Synced
That's happened
-
Not Synced
-My buddy's girlfriend did that
-Yeah?
-
Not Synced
-And he got really mad at her
-I guess we're in a restaurant full of
-
Not Synced
-kids too so
-Yeah there are laws against that. So far
-
Not Synced
One last potsticker. It's in front of you.
You gotta eat it
-
Not Synced
You know, you could have told me that
there was none left and I would've totally
-
Not Synced
believed you
-
Not Synced
-There's one left, just for you
-Really?
-
Not Synced
-Yes
-Alright, I'll eat it
-
Not Synced
-Oh you're close, you're close
-I'm gonna- I'm doing it with my finger
-
Not Synced
-Feel for it
-I'm going all in
-
Not Synced
I might even double-dip
-
Not Synced
I believe in double-dipping anyways,
fuck it
-
Not Synced
-You do?
-
Not Synced
Well, I could totally double-dip with you,
you wouldn't even notice
-
Not Synced
Yes. (Cat laughs) You totally could
-
Not Synced
That would be so rude, and awesome, and
I'd probably do it
-
Not Synced
Well, it was really great meeting you here
-
Not Synced
Same here
-
Not Synced
I'd like to see you again, so maybe-
(laughs) Get it?
-
Not Synced
I put it in quotes, but you couldn't see
it
-
Not Synced
Ohh, yeah, I get it. Well, I'd have to ask
my wife, yeah, sorry
-
Not Synced
-Ok... Wow, get the fuck out of here, man
-Yeah
-
Not Synced
-Sorry
-(Stuttering) Hope you enjoyed your ramen
-
Not Synced
It was good. I'll buy dinner
-
Not Synced
I hope so, yeah. I was expecting you to-
What the hell
-
Not Synced
My dating partner was frickin blind
-
Not Synced
i thought Cat was great
-
Not Synced
I didn't know it was, like, literally a
blind date
-
Not Synced
She doesn't like spicy food, so that
might be a problem
-
Not Synced
I had a literal blind date
-
Not Synced
We kinda talked about the blindness thing
for a little while, you know, a little
-
Not Synced
too long
-
Not Synced
I wouldn't have gone to Ross last night
and bought this new outfit
-
Not Synced
Best advice I would give Cat is: "Ask if
they are married first"
-
Not Synced
How about you let someone know that you're
married before you go on a fuckin date
-
Not Synced
Yeah, I'd date her again if my wife was
cool with it
-
Not Synced
Would I date him again?
-
Not Synced
He seemed very nice and cordial and
respectful except for that lack of respect
-
Not Synced
for not telling me he was married
-
Not Synced
I did not even see that coming
-
Not Synced
(upbeat electronic music)
-
Not Synced
(Honks horns) Lift
-
Not Synced
Are you my Lift driver?
-
Not Synced
-Fucking hell
-(Chad) Cat?
-
Not Synced
Get in
-
Not Synced
(Chad) Ha alright
(Cat) Mm great
-
Not Synced
(Chad) Do you wanna meet my wife?
-
Not Synced
She cute? I like blondes
-
Not Synced
(Chad) She's not bad. Redhead
-
Not Synced
Mm, second choice
