Jesse just passed along THIS LINK to me. it's worth a read. it's a report on an experiment a guy did, in which he proves that women LOVE total assholes.
although it shouldn't be taken seriously as a real scientific experiment, i think it really speaks volumes about the world we live in, and begins to confirm the truism that "nice guys finish last."
i mean, just watch those reality dating shows (e.g, "Fifth Wheel," "Elimidate," etc.) and observe how the guy you're rooting for, the guy who doesn't act like a total cock, will invariably be the first one to be voted off.
still, i'd like to see the same experiment done by an UGLY guy. the guy who did it was probably reasonably good looking, and i think the results might be different if the guy looked like, say, me. but i'm sure as hell not going to do it.
well, in other news, i worked three shifts today and i'm sort of pooped. and it's starting to look like this weekend will be a real dud. it's a shame, as it is the last weekend of summer.
i had another trainee today on East Campus Shuttle. can you believe it? i've had three trainees in as many weeks. i really enjoy educating people... sometimes the very very most optimistic part of me entertains the fleeting whim that i should apply for a trainer position at Cambus, but then the most logical part of me remembers that it's a lot of paperwork and plus i'm not exactly the most model driver either.
