How I love Hollywood tabloid journalism

So, I just read an article today which mentioned that Hollywood hunk Ryan Gosling is set to propose to Hollwyood babe Eva Mendes. It also suggested that Ms. Mendes isn't too warm with the idea. No, I couldn't care less about this or any other Hollywood relationship, but I do find it kind of funny.


So, Mendes is bound to be quite surprised when Gosling proposes to her, considering she likely read this article regarding it. Then again, reading that Mendes isn't really interested in marriage may alter Gosling's mind some, which may prevent him from asking the big question.

Oh, how wonderful it'd be to, instead of proposing to someone with an element of surprise, be able to just point to an article about it and say, "So, do you want to...and stuff?" Yes, that's romance right there!

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i...
