It’s Amazing I Haven’t Settled Yet

10

I was thinking of this loser I used to date. He thought minivans were cool. I am not joking. We got into a massive argument about it once.

The reason I was thinking of him was because of this hole balloon boy incident. You know, where the kid’s family wanted to be on reality tv so they caused an entire city/country/earth to freak out? I was thinking…these people are just nuts. They have no concept of reality or not.

And this guy that I dated would probably have been all it. He was that stupid. He one time tried to convince me that if we went to a completely moneyless society (not just cashless and still using debit and credit cards, but no money/currency), that everyone would work for the sake of society, and the world would essentially not change. I should let you know that at the time, he had no job and was living off my student loans, which I still pay faithfully every month. I asked him who would pick up the garbage? Certainly if there was no financial reward, no one would do it. He said the same people would, because that was their place in society.

That was an actual conversation.

I think about that guy, and I think about how pretty much everyone I meet now is WAY better than that. It’s amazing that I never grabbed up the next, normal, non-minivan-loving man and married him.

    Wow. There are hippie communists… and then there’s this guy. And minivans? I’ll have an SUV towing another SUV before I buy a minivan.

  3. Doll Says:

    I cant believe you of all people would consider ’settling’!

  4. Darryl Says:

    That guy in the picture is clearly settling.

  5. Darcie Says:

    @Desire, sadly, I can’t claim even that. He’s one of the biggest mysteries of my life. What was I thinking?

    @Mark, agreed. But it would have to be a hybrid SUV

    @Doll, clearly my lack of any potential suitor is eveidence that I have not settled.

    @Darryl, you would think that.

  6. Marty McFly Says:

    Not to worry Darcie, give it a few more years of looking…if not..there’s always Teenwolf.

  7. Darcie Says:

    I don’t think I could settle THAT low.

  8. Marty McFly Says:

    Yea, i figured…I’m just checking to see if he’s still alive…?

  9. Darcie Says:

    Maybe someone shot him with a silver bullet.

  10. Darryl Says:

    @Darcie Sarcasm, my dear, sarcasm.

    Where’d you get that picture from anyway, Hot Chicks With Douchebags?
