Better ideas for chance encounters than a bar or coffee shop:

• A storm is delaying our flight home and I’m afraid of thunder, please talk to me while we wait.
  
• We’re both in small claims court and i got into a huge fight with the person suing me but you stepped in to hold me back before security got there.
• I drove two hours to the closest video rental store that’s still operating and you were checking out the only copy of the movie i was after.
• i hit you with my car but luckily you’re okay, but we should still exchange information i guess
• our friends that we came here with went off together and now we’re making awkward small talk
• i was worried about buying something off of someone creepy from craigslist but oh no you’re hot
• my friend talked me into playing a drunken game of spin the bottle even though we’re all adults and now we have to make out
• we both decided to take a [yoga/fencing/cooking etc] class and we’re the only two assholes not taking it seriously and everyone else is giving us dirty looks but we keep grinning over at each other
• my date just made a scene in public and got arrested and now i’m stranded in a city without a ride home
• sharing a cab together
• you’re trying to get me to sign a petition and i have no idea what you’re talking about
• you’re drunk at this festival and dancing on the table and when you eventually fell i caught you
• i tried to get a part time job at this place right by my house but they hired you instead and i have to see you every day when i go there now
• blind date!
• my roommate is your ex, and your roommate is my ex, and i caught them sleeping together and told you so now we’re pissed off and going on a date to get away from them even though we didn’t really know each other before now
