Thoughts on Those of the Male Persuasion.

Ingrid, ShoSho, Pterodactyl and I are in the A Cappella Club here at BYU. One Tuesday evening, we were walking back to our dorm after a club meeting when we passed a group of guys. Suddenly, one of the guys says, "Hey ladies, look how fast I can run," and takes off running. And we all burst out laughing, and proceeded to discuss all the way home how that was just a particularly blatant example of what ALL MALES DO.

It's true.

Men just crave attention from women. It doesn't matter whether they like the women, or would ever date the women, or find the women remotely attractive. They just want their existences validated and so they attempt to gain praise by being ridiculous show-offs.

So now, whenever we notice a guy showing off in some manner or other, we say "Ladies, look how fast I can run" and collapse in a fit of immature giggles, much to the confusion of the poor male who has just failed in his attempt to impress us with whatever (getting a concussion, being able to hit a low B flat, knowing pi to 500 places, etc.). All of the previous examples, by the way, actually happened.

So yes. Boys are ridiculous.

In other news, you should get on YouTube RIGHT NOW and watch the movie "Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging." The book is better, but the movie is still basically the funniest thing ever.

Hugs and Kisses,
