Monday Kickstart: Honest Beginnings

I don't date anymore, and watching this was a both painful and vindicating reminder of why.

Monday Kickstart: Back to School

Back when I was in college, the most mature insult I—and the others in whatever circle of friends or like-minded fellow 20-somethings happened to be gathered—could throw at a collection of individuals is to say it was "like a high school." Our small liberal arts college's proclivity for gossip? So high school. The way people bickered over petty bullshit in my family? What were they, freshmen in high school?

And the internet? With its rumors, unsolicited opinions, and unsubstantiated accusations? The internet acts just like a big high school.



You have to watch that about 10 times to pick up on all of the websites and references they throw into it. Well done, Cracked. Though, unless I overlooked it, I notice that they didn't put themselves into it, which feels a little catty. A little immature. A little...high school.

This week we turn to Ms. Ruby Palm for inspiration, for two reasons: (1.) she's a proud L.A. gal; (2.) she's got more curves than Highway 1:

Facts and Figures

I haven't cared about a girlfriend's "number" since I was 25. Granted, there are some women I know today who I wouldn't touch, simply because I know how insane their hoeing was back in college. But those are cases of quality, not quantity. Nevertheless, this is pretty funny.

From Buzzfeed:

The people over at Elite Daily brought together some couples and asked them that age-old uncomfortable question: How many people have you slept with?

Monday Kickstart: Take this Job and...

Job interviews are the worst. We all talk shit about people who get hired solely because they're related to the CEO or their aunt was sorority sisters with the VP of Sales; but the truth of the matter is we'd all gladly go that route if we had the opportunity. No one wants to sit through a forced interaction with a complete stranger for an hour, trying make them believe you're actually worth paying money to every couple of weeks.



Something tells me, though, that this week's inspiration, Miss Lindy Elyse, could charm the corner office out of any prospective employer:

Let's go.

It's the Weekend

Time to wrap that shit up...
