Case in Point

okay. my head is bumping right now because i drank a whole lot last night, so i'll make it quick.

my friend Alex, a wise old sage, presents the theory that "the ratio of how dumb you are and how many girls you get is very closely linked." and this is true. Girls don't want the guy that is being a normal person at the party, they want the guy that's wearing the dumbass hat or the guy who is proving that he can shotgun 100 beers in a row. girls are, for whatever reason, infatuated with the silly and absurd. The reason being, and you can not blame them, is because they are seeking someone "exciting." yeah, okay. i can see that. you don't want to waste your time with someone boring, but why does it always come to be such a surprise to girls when the same guy running around the party tazing other dudes in the nuts turned out to be a douche bag? it is the inevitable. a boring guy like myself watches this happen all the time. there is nothing to really do about it but acknowledge the issue.

girls date these losers with the notion that he is good-looking, fun, interesting, and a bad boy, because after all he goes against the grain of society. a bad boy is the key in all of this. a bad boy represents something that they can not have or possess, and it is human nature to need to have what cannot be had. so for girls, this is a symbol of their status. being the girl that tamed the bad boy means a lot.

but at the end of the day, we know she is pretending the entire time. we know that she pretends that he isn't a dick. her happiness is completely compromised for her to wear bad-boy status symbol on her arm. every time he does something douchey, she rolls her eyes and says "boys will be boys," but you and i know that people will be people, and douches will be douches. generally speaking if your guy's friends are douches, then so is he. just because he is better looking that them, doesn't make him exempt from being a douche.

if you are a girl, don't fall into the scheme of dating a douche bag. i would suggest that you assess every guy and his friends, and think to yourself for a second "is he a douche?" before dating him ...it's not like i have a vendetta against douchebags or something, i'm sure someone out there thinks that i am one. anyway, the point being, girls need to start evaluating their potential partners better. they should hold out for something better.
