Looking for love in all the wrong places.

FILE UNDER: A Moment of Clarity/Why you wanna trip on me?


Here we go again. [Sorry, y'all.]


Boy likes Britney Spears. Boy gets pumped for the premiere of her new video during and/or following a new episode of The Hills. Boy goes to MTV, excitedly waiting for the moment to arrive, and, of course, it doesn’t. This is his story:


Me at the top of the show: “Ugh, I can’t believe I have to actually watch this just to see Britney’s video. Ugh.”

Me as soon as the show started and the boxer/trainer chimes in with his two cents that just sounded so well read: “Nope. Can’t do it. Putting it on mute.”

Me following the theme song: “Okay, Heidi and Spencer are on television, this could be entertaining in a “accident on the side of the road kind of way.”

Me as soon as they start talking: “Nope. Can’t do it. Putting it on mute.”

Me, shortly following Lauren’s and the sister of Spencer’s reconnection on the “quad” of FIDM(?) in which the conversation ends in them just staring blankly at nothing in particular into space. [Yeah, this is a common occurrence and nothing new, but it still gets me every. time. I see it. Like, really? Who does that IN EVERY SINGLE GODDAMN CONVERSATION THEY HOLD WITH PEOPLE? It’s like, talk, talk, talk, contemplate, contemplate, contemplate, stare!]: “Nope. Can’t do it. Not only am I leaving this on mute, but I’m not gonna even look at the screen. Purely background material. Tap me on the shoulder when Britney’s video premieres.”

Me during the credits: “Okay, here it comes, here it comes!”

Me following the credits:
“Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Who is that in the tiara? What is this? Exiled? Is this the Divo episode? Cause that shit was jokes. Nope? Fuck this shit, I’m out!”

So in conclusion, you messed with my emotions MTV. Not a good look. Not a good look at all.
