It took me 5 minutes to get that shot right. Then I gave my penguin blanket as dachshunds must burrow under blankets in order to sleep/feel safe, and it had "my scent" on it. Frankie (his name) will pull down a blanket with all 14.5 lbs of his might just to have it.

Personally, I blame Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert for making funny look like something anyone could pull off.

I completely agree!

HEY! People who are the same age as me. Stop making cool apps and things. I find your entrepreneurial spirit very annoying.

Yeah, if I was still dating I might give this a try. And in answer to your real questions:

She is, it's a big part of her schtick. She acts confused, like her common-sense outlook just can't comprehend what those danged "libs" are saying. It's simplistic jabbering for her simplistic fans.

Yep, that sounds like a perfect idea! If only I had some!

I've been doing the same all weekend, and last weekend too. I don't have advice for you, but I certainly can commiserate. I hope we both feel better soon.

Fuck it. Sometimes you just have to say "Today sucked. I'll try again tomorrow."

I love how often women say "I don't think x is funny" or "y behavior makes me really uncomfortable" and men say "no, you're wrong!" Not like, "well *I* think x is funny" or "well y doesn't make *me* uncomfortable and I don't care about your comfort." Just, "no, you don't actually have the opinion you think you have!…

Sometimes I'll get several like that in a short period of time and start panicking, but then I have days like today where I am weirdly energetic & productive. Just thought I'd share and let you know you sound normal to me. :) Hang…

darlingdalia - you're correct. I owe Mary an apology. I did a total tl;dr on her comment and went for it without reading it thoroughly. I could say her wording was a bit confusing - but that's probably 'cause I shouldn't read when I'm high on high-fructose corn syrup and american cheese. Thanks for pointing this out. …

I was feeling despondent today so I went out for a walk. It gave me some temporary relief. Walks are good <3

Didn't we learn from Dennis Miller about what happens when Republicans try to be funny?

Whenever I feel trapped with my feelings, I take off on foot. (I bring a bottle of water, a cell phone, and my keys. Maybe some money for snackies.) But I just take off.

Is this serious? Is that how your dating/personal life has been so far? This is really sad, and you're walking down a dangerous line of thinking, reminds of Elliott Rodger honestly.

However, I do urge you to keep posting, because this shit is comedy gold.

"Each and every one is proving my conviction that men and women simply aren't meant to spend much time together."

Correction: nobody, male or female, is meant to spend any time WITH YOU.
