I enjoy XKCD, and every so often the strips hit fairly close to home. For fellow nerds like me, this has happened fairly often. The whole nice guy angle. I’ve been there, done that… and sometimes it takes years to get through the paces in what seems like seconds in the above strip. And a good number of the times, when you do reach that moment of weakness and some how get together, you find out that the two of you were better off as friends. And if the friendship is strong enough, you get to remain friends and just have fun little stories.
Most of the time, it’s just easier to be the asshole douchebag and if someone is willing to wade through all that bullshit to get to the soft chewy center and discover the douchy nice guy; you’ve successfully filtered out a sea of dirty whores. Not to say dirty whore’s aren’t fun and that you won’t have a good time with a filthy ho; sometimes you just want something with more depth and less baggage.
Here’s a tampon, quite crying….
Hmm.. so your wife must have got tired of you using hers for your own sick little happy fun times, and is finally letting you buy your own now eh? :P
Married people don’t count; plus I don’t expect you to have the intelligence to understand the depth of the message :D
Ah, so true.
I prefer the one where you compare close friendships with girls who don’t “like you that way” as a sort of job interview.
it’s like the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we’re not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we’re going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn’t work out, we’ll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired.
oh thats right i forgot that a marriage license comes with a mandatory labotomy…..drool….
