what now???

so, alas, i'm back in jersey. it's been a long but fun week: 3 days in the car, interspersed with a day in indy with tammy and a day in toledo with alliswan, both of which were great visits.

while driving on the indiana toll road on wednesday though, i was listening to the radio, and heard the following:
36 percent of men on online dating websites are looking for a woman who......

(can you guess it?... scroll for answer....)












































...makes more money than he does.

reaction: what the heck?

i can totally understand not wanting to date a gold-digger, or whatever have you, but whether you're the guy or the girl, i find seriously looking for more money than you have as a top dating priority atrocious. it's nice to have means to do things, but... whatever happened to pride in work, and valuing what you've earned? and just because you find someone with more money than you (regardless of gender) doesn't mean it's yours to spend. heck, i'm a grad student, i make close to zero money, so just about everyone makes more than me, but i don't expect anyone to support me but me.

people never cease to amaze me.

am i alone on this? are the statistics people crazy? what's your reaction?

the end.
