We've gotten some good laughs out of a trending Twitter hashtag this week:

#FiveWordstoRuinADate.

People offer a five word example of something that would be a mood killer for them on a date. The popularity of the hashtag shows that, for all Twitter's much-discussed ability to convey breaking news, it's as much a tool for entertainment.

But why keep the fun locked up in the virtual world? It turns out people in the living flesh also have a few ideas about what can ruin a date -- and how ruinous dates can be. Paste BN's Trevor Hughes reports from Denver's 16th Street Mall.
