Rebound guy wanted – 30
Here’s the plan… you’ll take me out and I’ll be half distracted most of the night. I will obsessively check my cell phone to see if he has called or texted me. No matter what the topic of conversation is, I’ll manage to refocus it onto my ex-boyfriend. I’ll hyper analyze the entire relationship and ask your opinion on What Went Wrong. It won’t matter how awesome you are, how caring, or mature, you will never live up to Him. Even though he lied to me, used me, and brutally broke my heart…I will go on and on with different schemes for possibly getting him back. When I’m not talking about him, I will make blanket statements about how all men are assholes.
At the end of the night, I will grudge fuck you and then immediately burst into tears. You will have to console me while I sob about how much I miss him.
If you are a glutton for punishment… send me an email.

I’m sure this guy will be “Joe-Plumbered” and outed as a transplant from the South.

A 12 MP Nikon for only $47? Needless to say, I had my credit card whipped out and ready… Until I switched over to the merchant page…

Just a flash card! Too bad they’re just a review site. I would’ve held them to it.
A man faces felony charges for selling counterfeit cocaine to an undercover sheriff’s deputy in December…
…When lawmen tested the substance, it came back negative for cocaine.
Am I the only one who sees the irony in this? A felony charge for NOT selling an illegal substance?
A woman (MIT student no less) walks into Logan International Airport with a computer circuit board and Play-Doh strapped to her chest.
And, no, she’s not wearing the toe tag she so desperately wants and deserves.
The first line of the story reads: “A British performance artist has eaten a dog to protest the British royal family’s treatment of animals.”
That’s like someone using a bullwhip on a (pick your minority) to protest racism.

A man staying in a California hotel was set on fire from his cell phone according to assistant fire chief Kurt Henke. Luis Picaso, 59, was unlucky enough to be wearing highly flammable polyester clothing when his cell phone apparently malfunctioned and set his attire ablaze. Mr. Picaso suffered second and third degree burns over much of his body. The sprinkler system kicked in and kept the flames down after a plastic chair caught fire. Fire chief Henke declined to mention the vendor of Mr. Picaso’s phone.
Lesson One: Invest a few bucks in a clip to wear your phone *instead* of keeping it in your pocket.
Lesson Two: If you see someone yacking on a cell phone while pumping gas – Run!
Note To Self: Push to bring polyester back in style.
When Susan Kuhnhausen returned home from work one day earlier this month, she encountered an intruder wielding a claw hammer. After a struggle, the 51-year-old nurse fended off her attacker by strangling him with her bare hands…
…after an investigation, police now say the intruder Kuhnhausen strangled was apparently a hit man hired by her estranged husband — Michael James Kuhnhausen Sr. — to kill her.
I guess the husband couldn’t afford to upgrade to the basic firearm package.
