Deal of No Deal?

Not much on the go. Just my job, that is still making me live in McSucky-ville. But we push on yea.

In case you were wondering what the highlight of my day was yesterday (apart from locking lips with one super cute editor boy)???.....

as i settled down into my daily routine, two of my South African bosses entered the conference room (which is ryt next to my desk)...
(Just a side note, the conference room walls are mayjah thin and because of my close proximity to the conference room-where my boss holds 90% of his crucial meetings, i can often here a LOT of the stuff that goes on in there, and let me tell you...some serious shit goes down in there!)
So, I'm happily sitting at my desk drinking my red bull, and my female lawyer boss from SA (Lawyer with killer Rack) walks by, into the conference room. A few minutes later, her colleague from SA (Lawyer with the killer Eyes) walks in, and the following conversation ensues:
Lawyer with the killer Rack: Good morning lawyer with the killer eyes
Lawyer with the killer Eyes: Hey there, Gosh, Nigerian men are hot aren't they?
LWTKR: you bet, i had to literally peel my eyes from that one dude from company A yesterday.
LWTKE: I know, bet he's not that good in bed, like tiny shlong, thats always the case.
LWTKR: What?
LWTKE: seriously, you're better off with the ones who are average lookers. Lucky for you, your husband is average, so he must be killer in bed..
At this point i have to give kudos to lawyer with the killer rack, she is all sorts of graceful and classy because i would have opened up a can of whoop-ass on that bitch. What is that about?
Anywho..
So, i had dinner with the girls last nyt, and as is always the case, the conversation always ends up being about sex, boys, boys, and shoes. So, the discussion quickly turned to boys, and dating. And then we started to talk about dating deal breakers. You know, the little (or huge and sometimes totally shallow) things that you would not be able to get past if you discovered you date possessed or did on the first date or very early on in the relationship.
The sort of shit that came out people's mouths was unbelievable. It really is tough for guys out there. Among other things, these are the mayjah (mostly shallow) deal breakers from the girls. They would never date anyone who:
  1. Is a vegan
  2. Studies every line of a receipt as if it was the night before his chemistry A-Level
  3. Has anything by Kenny G, Barbra Streisand, or Dixie Chicks in his iTunes
  4. Names any part of his anatomy
  5. Can't stop talking about his wife
  6. Wears sunglasses indoors

Now, i don't know about you, but these are all right up my allie. Seriously, especially in the case of number 6. Eish, i cannot get past that. We laughed our asses off...and now, shamelessly, here are my super shallow (don't judge yo) deal breakers (most of these have actually happened mind you):

  1. White Socks with ANYTHING.
  2. Dirty Nails/Long Nails..
  3. Careless use of Fork and Knife
  4. Chewing and/or talking with food in the mouth
  5. Asking if i wanted to "do a line" (read: do you want some cocaine on our first date)
  6. A guy who eats off my plate without asking.
  7. Repeatedly calling me by his ex-girlfriends name and then lying that its his siter's name.
  8. Calls his friend to report about the date--in front of me
  9. Calls his wife to tell her he wont be eating at home tonight--in front of me
  10. Reads Cosmo to find out how to get laid.
  11. I once went on a date and the guy was really sweet and opened the car door and ordered for me and everything, until it came to desert and he not only burped the loudest burp ever, he also called the waiter a wanker.. and i never saw him again.

I love dating. (not)
