Work Posts!

So I'm posting at work, which I have previously abstained from... since I don't want to get fired, but let's be honest- I spend a lot of time on other sites and have made it this far. Let's hope the boss doesn't google "the great kali llama" and finds this little piece of evidence!

But I have an issue with something: anything that reaffirms why a girl doesn't have a boyfriend.

I'm talking about all those "bumper stickers" and "flair" on facebook, all the avatars and signatures people have in forums. I have pulled a small sampling for you, then we shall move on to my rant.

Small Sampling:
Rant: Honestly hon? I think it's you. I think they see this and mark you as crazy and move on to an uncrazy girl. All this is, is an excuse as to why you are still single.
"Hey desperate girl, why don't you have a boyfriend?" "Oh, it's not me, it's their stupid boy penises." or "Oh, they think they aren't good enough for me."

Right, all the boys on the planet got together and decided you were SOOO amazing that they would form a club to honor you instead. I bet this is why you don't get any flowers either.

Thankfully, some girls like to clarify their desperation with this:

Ahh, now I understand. A nice, man of God won't do. Noooo- you want the sexy ones. Hon, I seriously doubt that the Chip-n-Dale dancers are too religious.

Friends, I know you. I know why you are still single. I have one friend who isn't dating right now as she gets her life and career in place- good for her. She doesn't blame it on not yet finding that sexy man of God who also thinks he's good enough for you.

Conclusion: When you have these types of things littering your online profiles, you are saying "I'm single and I don't know why! Maybe someone will believe this sticker! There, THAT shows THEM!"

Unless you and we as the collective public are as delusional as she is thinking that sash really hides her hips and thunder thighs, then no. We don't believe you. Wash that desperation off and start again.

These same girls are also the ones at HU who had "Girl's Night Out," like every weekend. I guess by re-labeling it a "GNO" they could avoid facing up to the more accurate label of "Nobody Asked Us Out...Again."

On a related note, one of my pet peeves was the counterpart to these girls. The guys who had "Guy's Night" a.k.a "We're Too Spineless To Ask Girls Out" a.k.a "We Think That Smoking Cigars Makes Us BAMFs" a.k.a "TNT/Gamma Sigs."

hahaha, sam if you are interested I would love for you to write the counterpart to my post.

Haha, you make me laugh.

Wise words Kali -- This cracked me up, as usual!!!

I also hate the "I'm not dating cause I'm waiting for my fictional vampire and/or Mr. Darcy" flair. Lame.

oh that STUPID fictional vampire... at least mr. darcy was spawned from actual literature. that would mean they at least read real books- which is a start.

You don't think Edward from Twilight counts as real literature (I got on Wikipedia...I didn't actually know the name)?!?

It's hard to walk the fine line between "engaged freshman year" and "no guy is good enough for me." I'm so glad I have you to show me the way!

Unknown said...

It's confusing when Amber Ramsey and I both post on the same one!

Sevahn said...

HAHAHAHA! Amen, sister! Yet another reminder of why we are friends and why I love you so! Sam's comment was hilarious too!
