Awww...it's jack's broken heart.

So I'm in the middle of listening to this guy sing this song... I dearly love the song, because I've been there before, who hasn't??? But, like every song with a guy pining after some girl, I just get annoyed. My favorite song in this category is this one by Eliot Yamin. (Please notice favorite is italicized. That means I really hate it...it's only fair that I inform you of my sarcastic techniques.) I mean even cute little Jesse McCartney has this song. So I start to think, why does this annoy me so??? Maybe you think it makes me mad because, as far as I know, no guy has gotten hung up on me. And, maybe just a tiny little bit. But, no not really.......





....p o n d e r i n g....





Okay, I think I have a handle on it. Have you seen Forgetting Sarah Marshall? In it, Jason Segal gets dumped by his girlfriend. [Sidenote: As far as she's concerned, I go against popular opinion. I feel bad for her because she does everything she can to make it work with him, she loves him, but really just wants him to grow up! We've all been there too! Sure, she should have loved him for him and not cheated, but I can still see her side.] Anyway, he can't get over it. He goes to clubs, sleeps with girls, cries himself silly, talks to anyone who will listen...he can barely cope in Hawaii, PARADISE. Finally, he's talking with one of the resort workers, Kemo, who says to him, "....I heard about it from everybody. You gotta stop talking about it. It's like "the Sopranos." It's *over*. Find a new show." That bold part has become one of my new favorite things to say. You know why? Because I've had to deal with so many guys who play this sad sack role, the OMG, my girlfriend left me, or I dumped her, but I totally regret it, or I was a total jerk and didn't treat her right, but I'm SO SORRY for acting that way...and I just want her back!!! Right now! The whine is similar to a child crying for candy. And maybe it's the girls I choose to be friends with, but very rarely do I have to hear them cry and sob over love lost. So I just don't get it. I guess what really pisses me off is that most guys have this I'll do what I want, be who I want, screw who I want, when I want, you can't tell me nothing mentality, but then, suddenly the "love of their life" is gone and they can't exist. GIVE ME A F***ING BREAK. GROW UP and GET OVER IT.
