Would you let your mom set you up on a blind date?

No.

The closest thing to this that I have done is let a woman I met set me up on a blind date with her daughter. I was impressed that a mother would recommend me to her daughter so I thought it would be worth a shot.

Date went well. Daughter was very cool to talk to and seemed like a decent person. Unfortunately, she smoked, had facial piercings, had purple hair, was chubby, and didn't have mom's good looks. I TRIED to like her because she seemed like a cool person but there had to be some physical attraction and there wasn't. 🙁

That was my BEST blind date experience. I no longer accept blind dates.

meh, prob won't hurt, but a blind date from a friend of your mother, that's not too far from like, a friend of a friend of a friend. In all likelyhood, you won't end up marrying her even if you do start off together; unless you have something better to do though, I'd go for it.

Ah Hummers aren't so tuff. They are stoppable, even if they can do 0 to 60 in under 6 sec. Which at 700 hp and that much torque i still think is pathetic.

Woops. Totally wrong thread. See what happens when you have multiple anandtech tabs open.
