The first time I ever picked up a date on my own, I was a scared 16 year-old driving on my own for the 4th time. I probably weighed 110 lbs soaking wet, and her dad answered the door carrying what I now know is a gurkha knife. It was about 12" long, and he proceded to sharpen it while talking to me very pleasantly. Needless to say, it made a great impression.
I never asked her out again, specifically because I was afraid of her father.
