Judgment Day

As a single woman, I have a tendency to see more people coupled off than not. And it's these "couples" that I see that make me react in a certain way.

What way is that?

Why in the "what the fuck is she/he doing with him/her?" way, of course.

I know. Not cool. But some things cannot be helped.

For example...

Example #1:
1. Tall, dorky white guy with short, big-haired Mexican woman.

The first part of that is the tall guy - short chick combo. What the hell is up with that? Why is it that the short chicks (and by "short" I'm referring to 5'2" or shorter) get the tall ones? I mean, hello?? Where does that leave all the tall girls (and by "tall" I mean 5'10" or taller)? Screwed.

And then there's the whole dork/party girl combination. Can you honestly tell me that the woman, who probably had her first child at 15, is seriously attracted to the uber dork standing (I mean, towering) over her? Doubtful. Must be some serious money involved. Or maybe he's good in bed. Yes. That must be it. Which in that case - what the hell? That's still messed up!

2. Chubby guy with skinny, pretty woman.

Again? What the fuuuUUuuuck?!? It boggles the mind. Not because someone loves the chubby guy, but reverse that scenario... and tell me how many times you've seen a chubby girl with a skinny, hot guy. And pregnant or married chicks don't count.

3. Older guy with younger woman.

This really just breaks my heart. I mean - I've seen "Something's Gotta Give" too many times to accept this scenario. Come on fella's. Give the older ladies a shot. Chances are it's a better match AND you don't have to worry about using Viagra as much.

4. Preppy (hell, normal) chick with hood rat.

I REALLY don't get it. I mean, I suppose this could be a version of the "bad guy/good girl" situation. But...come...on! What the hell?! Is it the little rat tail pony tail he has? Maybe it's the fact that he could live in his own pants. Or perhaps it's the fact that he has a few babies mammas laying around.

I'm sure I could go on - and I probably will, later - but I did want to conclude by saying that I don't want y'all to think I don't (double negative, nice!) appreciate the differences among us. Because I do. In fact, I embrace our differences.

It's just that I can't help but get upset when I see these particular couples out in public. If someone could explain them to me, then maybe I'd understand just a little bit better; but until then, I have my judgments and I'm stickin' to 'em.

(Above said blog must be taken tongue in cheek... actually 90% of my blogs must be. Just FYI.)
