Definitely not a movie night, you don’t get much of a chance to really know the other person from that, and if either one of you decides that the other is crazy it makes it a little harder to dip out.
Ideally something simple that’s good for getting to know the other person while being able to leave at any time. Coffee, shaved ice, frozen yogurt, etc. Then a walk through a park or along a beach, or just sit down/people watch, and discuss your interests to see if either of you are interested in a second date.
I’m married now, but I was always a fan of the cheesy stuff, like going bowling or mini golfing. Some of my more memorable dates were extremely simple, like sitting in a car with the seats laid back listening to music and just talking
Married as well… I still try to date my wife. But yeah it’s the simple (and often cheap) things received the best. A picnic to add to the list

lol. 1 in hex?? what do that mean?
Ideal date - the beginning of time. I’m partial to Jan 1st 1970. All my homies love integer dates since the epoch.
Coffee is nice. My favorite is the one where we go no where in particular on my motorcycle.
So like Tron?
I like to pretend, yes.
“Wow it’s been a minute since I saw an aerobie!”
Impromptu joining me on something I was already doing
I would say going out for lunch somewhere nice. It’s a common activity that can go on for as long as you need, whether that be a long time or a short one. You get to talk to one another, and the focus can just be on you and your meals.
The second date would be home cooking and a terrible movie. Like, Birdemic levels of bad. Something we can watch and have fun with, but can talk over it or start doing other stuff without missing anything good.
Tbh. just breaking the ice quickly and having fun afterwards, and getting to know the person in the process
I really don’t know. I’ve never dated in my life.
