I got this off of jhgpy's blog...it totally reminds me of something someone could have written for Spradley's satire pamphlet....It's absurdly funny....so brace yourself (well i know all the females out there will be laughing...and guys...never reject some good advice =P) I only posted a few...the ones I thought were the funniest.

Prom Tips (for guys)
7. What to wear?
You must look formal. Not semi-formal, but full formal. You need some sleek shirt, and nice formal pants. Black pants require black shoes. You can wear the jacket if you want. But if you accessorize with a cane and hat, you've gone too far. For males, dressing formally is quite simple. This is because we all lack any sort of fashion sense. The key is to look almost exactly like every other guy that you see at the prom. That way, your date may discard and replace you at any time she feels the urge. Nobody will be able to tell the difference. However, that does not excuse you from forgetting about hygiene. Brush your teeth, clean your ears, shave, and please, take a shower.
8. Dinner
Let her pick the dinner location if she requests it. If she does not request or suggest anything, it is assumed that you are selecting the site. First of all, do not go to any restaurant whose name includes the word "buffet". Prom dinner is not an eating contest. Think classy. Class above satisfaction. Do not go to a place that shows you your meat alive before you eat it. Unless it's aquatic. If you are selecting which cow to slaughter, you're in the wrong place. Also, anywhere that has drive-thru is a no-no. Your prom dinner must not be eaten while driving. Do not order anything that comes with fries or onion rings. Try to go somewhere that you can leave from without any food stains. Do not eat with your hands. This may only be done in extreme situations, or if she is in the bathroom. Taking home leftovers is not a mark of shame. Do not stuff yourself too much. She does not want to dance with a bloated pig. Unless she insists otherwise, you will pay for the dinner. Don't pay with all coins, and tip the waiter, unless he was hitting on your date.
9. The dance
Obviously, you are expected to dance at the dance. You can't just stand there doing nothing. She is not a stripper and you are not her pole. If you don't know how to dance, try anyways. Slow dancing is simple. The two of you basically sway together, usually creating a circle or oval on the dance floor. For the music of a faster pace, you're usually on your own. If you have no moves, follow these simple dancing procedures: start with feet about shoulder's width apart, continually bend and unbend knees slightly, have arms in a relaxed fighting stance, let body and arms bounce with the bending of the knees, move feet every few seconds, move arms and head with the music. If nothing else, she'll laugh and think you're cute.
