There's this garbage book I haven't read on account of how much it blows called "I Don't Care About Your Band: What I Learned from Indie Rockers, Trust Funders, Pornographers, Felons, Faux-Sensitive Hipsters, and Other Guys I've Dated." Note firstly that I predicted such titles. When at first I saw the title of this book, I thought to myself, "That sounds like a funny book." Then I thought, "I bet she learned that she has poor taste in guys."
Then I got pissed off because this woman's job was basically to date losers. She's making money, isn't she? I get the feeling, vaguely from life and specifically from this book, that an uncomfortable number of young women only date guys who they can picture breaking up with.
The title is "I Don't Care About Your Band: What I Learned from Indie Rockers..." But let me ask you a little question: did she meet the indie rocker she mentioned at the library? Or at the aquarium? Or did she meet him at one of his performances? Number three is the answer. This fellow could respond to her statement, naturally with some surprise, "You don't care about my band? Why did you come to all my shows, then?"
Consider another title. "I Don't Care About Your Pornography: What I Learned From Pornographers." That sounds like something she could probably have figured out without the use of dating.
Or, "I Don't Care About The Clown Makeup In Your Bathroom Or The Secret In Your Basement: What I Learned from Felons."
Overall it sounds like she's wasting her time on purpose. And it sounds like a lot of girls, when they talk about their last relationships, are doing the same thing. For some reason too many girls I come in contact with are more interested in having relationships with the sorts of people they openly loathe than ANY other sort of person.
Whatever happened to dating people you're interested in? If you're trying to make a career out of giving losers things they don't deserve, eunuch-like misdemeanants like me are wondering whether becoming felonious pornographers would actually benefit them. And you know what, judging by this book, IT WOULD! Right off the bat, here are two things we have to gain by being more horrible:
First, we could date a writer,
Second, the writer would celebrate our behavior by including us in her book.
You know, if you're thinking about embarking on a string of unhealthy relationships to get a book out, perhaps consider fiction. Unless you're too busy being unhappy at your boyfriend's concert to make up stories in your head.
I guess I'm saying why do girls date jerks.
Then I guess I'm saying because jerks are more fun to write about, but that it's still stupid because jerks bug everybody.
Also you can make up fake jerks.
