Modern Man's Hustle

I made a mix CD for a girl.

Recommended Posts

It featured "Hello Again" by Neil Diamond, "Jealous Guy" and "Oh My Love" by John Lennon, a couple of Jack Johnson songs, and even "I'll Never Smile Again" by Frank Sinatra.

 

The funny part? It actually worked. I suppose when you're as much of a man as I am, no matter what kind of music you put on you can get some. Told you, Patrick.

I can also testify to this.

Making mix tapes is just more shit to bitch about you not doing anymore. When you don't do anything but tell her she looks good and from time to time have sex with her out of nowhere (like she is getting her hair ready to go to the store inthe bathroom) you have nothing to worry about, because you can always do that shit.

 

Buying flowers, making mixtapes, dressing nicer than you usually do, working out(if you don't do it already...if you do you have to keep doing it)...all that shit is stuff that will later turn to "How come you never make me mixtapes anymore? How come you never buy me flowers anymore? How come you don't dress nice for me anymore?"

 

If you keep shit like this for special occasions, then you don't have to worry about that later.

 

Ripper - ain't making a mixtape until he is broke around a meaninless "first time we met" anniversary, or if she is really mad at me since....well...the date thing wouldn't really work here....so...um.....THAT'S MY MAMMA!!!!

Well, that can be said of some women, but me ex was great. I made her another mix tape on our one-year anniversary of being together, although I had already used up most of the good songs on the first tape.

 

And I guess dressing nice is in the eye of the beholder. Back then I wore stuff like jerseys and windbreakers. She did not like it, but I told her it was me.

It was that same girl. We got into a drunken argument one night, the kind where all you do is say mean and hurtful things to the other person. I tried for like three days to get a hold of her, she wouldn't return my calls, all that nonsense, so finally I resorted to this. And it worked.

Yes yes yes yes. It's called setting the bar low. This way you can avoid that dumb shit Ripper's talking about here. For example: You buy her roses on her birthday, so what do you do for your anniversary? Gotta buy something nicer since that means more. What about Christmas? Gotta spend more money. Now guess what? Her birthday is coming up soon, do you think she forgot what you gave her last year? HELL NO and you better top it this year. By the way, your anniversary is coming up, etc, etc, etc. By doing the things Ripper said, telling her she looks hot in an outfit, jumping into the shower with her and sticking it to her out of the blue, etc, you end up saving a ton of money and plenty of grief in the long run.

it's funny, ever since I got married, my wife just buys her own shit for birthdays, christmas and anniversaries like a month in advance and informs me it's her present for that occassion...I just sit back and go "Uh okay, honey"...then when that occassion does actually hit, if I fail to buy a card or a rose or even write a little note, I'm fucked!

Wait, people actually make mix tapes still? I just finished reading a book in which the characters make each other mix tapes, but it was

a) set in the early 90s

and

b) set in a high school environment

 

so it kind of made sense.

 

But I actually thought to myself how glad I was that I never got into the whole mix tape thing. And how glad I am that people don't do that anymore. Lo and behold I was only half-right.

I'd rather listen to a mix CD than most of the CDs that I own. I have a 10 disc changer in my car and all 10 discs are mix CDs. It's the only thing I listen to while driving since Sports Talk sucks these days and music is just horrid.

It's a new craze sweeping the nation, I swear.
