A few years ago, I was at a bar and being introduced to a semi-famous actress, by a mutual friend. The woman and I had noticed each other in the neighborhood before, and this seemed to be the moment we were to finally exchange words.

She was sitting in a booth, as the mutual friend and I approached.

She offered her hand to me, after greeting our friend.

In a perfect moment that lasted 4 seconds, and an eternity, I extended my hand and knocked the entire table of drinks onto her, and the floor.

Glasses smashed, the music stopped.

She looked back at me, her face a mixture of disgust and disbelief.

Others in the bar shook their heads, tsk'ing in variation.

"You make me make moves.."

Read: Might even move all these drinks to the ground

"I break through, to get to you.."

Read: I am not against sacrificing a pint glass to make a good impression

Eventually the music came back on, and I never saw her in another film again.
