I think whoever wrote this has seen 1 too many movies... Or somehow went back in time and lives in the 50's.
1. Wear real clothes. I'd be willing to bet that more people go to work in Jeans than dress pants. Yes, you shouldn't dress like a bum, but the condescending tone of this is already pretty unattractive.
2. Stop constantly swearing. I've never met anyone who didn't swear and thought to myself "This person is awesome!" Any mildly entertaining or funny guy is gonna swear. It just shouldn't be overdone, but the same can be said of pretty much everything.
3. Wear a watch. I would break down this (agian) condescending mess sentence by sentence, but reading them all again would probably make me think awful thoughts about whoever wrote this. Men can't be late, but women are supposed to? Who the hell needs a watch? It's just dumb to spend money on one when they're effing everywhere now.
4. Find an intelligent, strong woman with class. This actually made sense. Yay! Except for the part where she said we. You are not classy, miss anon. I wouldn't expect the author of this to be at a college party, but that's because I expect her to be alone.
5. Grow up and get out. Please be dead now. I know this was only written a few hours ago, but a man can dream, right?

Everything but #4 would have an entire truck of production folks roar in laughter. While saying Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack Quack.
Edit to flesh this out: I would like to not ruin my clothes as I sweat, have to get down on my knees to work faster and mic people. Very few tables happen on a shoot. Cursing? We are an angry crotchety bunch -- even the ladies. Watches get caught on shiz and break, as well as making one hand heavier. 4. No problem with strong women. haha you can't get out if you have 5 12hr days in a row -- and we all drink like fish so, does that count?

Aside from the whole "Grow up and Get out" thing, I could work with the rest if I had to. Granted, he'd probably not be looking for me if he read and took this letter to heart--class is not my strongest attribute...
As someone living at home and attending Law School next semester, I was happy to accept: "The only exception to this is still being in school – which means you’re becoming a doctor, a PhD candidate or maybe a lawyer."
However, this: "You shouldn’t STILL be in school by 28 just because you don’t want to grow up" is ludicrous. There's no better time than the present to finish your education. If that means living with mom and dad for a few years at 28, so be it.
EDIT: I would date a girl if the right one came along, just saying.
aww so much hate for this from everyone! I get the intent, but perhaps it was lacking a bit in execution.
I also wonder where the elusive adult male of the species can be found sometimes, and have considered that I may in fact be single forever. I have fairly (but not impossibly) high standards, but I don't think I should have to lower them... right? is it too much to expect an ability to hold an articulate conversation of some depth, personal ambition (in what area is irrelevant, but be motivated about something!), and integrity? sigh.
edit: plus an accent.. so, basically I am holding out for this:
She makes me sad too! I had to log in just to say that. Um, I haven't been on here and everything is so different and scary here. It asked me questions and stuff...like my birthday
Chico! Are you ready to see me next month? I want special Chicago pizza...and beer and liquor...but NOT RED STATE!! We're staying at Hotel Sax.
EAP I saw your post on FB I can't keep my eyes off that train wreck. Those nude photos cracked me up...but really all I could think is "why is her bathroom so small and ugly?"
We can have BLUE STATE!! And of course we'll need to get BlackAmy over here for some librarian parties.
No State. Drunken State
How bout we steer clear of cheap whiskey all together?
Hi BlackAmy!
This Inforoo is so different. I need to go learn some new Inforoo skills. It's making me feel old.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

I went to my friend's last night to pick up my camping stuff since he wasn't going to roo with me. While I was there, I put on his gumby costume and danced on his front steps. A group of ten or so people walked by laughing and said something about "just another Thursday." I think it was his "how the fuck could I think of missing bonnaroo with this fool" moment. He said he will likely buy his ticket this week.
I left my phone at home. Initially, I thought it would be ok because I'm not crazy phone obsessed and I have my computer... but I am going through snapchat withdrawals.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

PHEW! Was freaking out all morning, but I totally just found it underneath my grapefruit...

I was always a techno geek (guess I still am) but a year ago I gave up my cell phone. I do have a house phone, but no cell at all. I find it refreshing ... cr****
