Knock knock

Oh hi, how's it going? It's me! Every girl ever. I'm really looking forward to this date. I'm not nearly as attractive as you remember me being because when we met the bar was dark and you were drunk. Come on in.

Let's start off with the unavoidable tour of my incredibly typical post-college-girl apartment.

You'll notice that I went ahead and purchased everything that Ikea and Pier 1 have ever produced. There's my decorative birdcage over there even though I don't have a bird, and there's my gay wicker basket with bamboo poles in it. I don't know what the hell that's thing's all about, but I bought it.

Hey check it out, I have more candles in here than a Roman Catholic Church. Doesn't it smell like Hazelnut!? If I were to light all of my candles at once you could see my apartment from space! I ****ing love candles!

Come on into the living room.

Oh, I see you met my cat there. That's "Freddy Paws Jr." Why don't you pet him and act like you like cats even though you hate cats? There you go. Oh, he took a little swing at your eye there huh? Yeah, he'll do that. Hey, let's check out the kitchen.

Hey look at my refrigerator. There are pictures all over it! Look at all these pictures of me and my equally vacuous friends from college! We were so crazy! You can tell we're really good friends because our faces are all pressed up against each other like that.

And check it out, we're holding up alcoholic beverages to the camera in every single picture. That's to prove that we were partying. College was so fun! But of course I don't talk to any of these girls anymore because now they're all bitches.

Let's go back into the hallway!

Hey, before we leave I'm going to go in the bathroom for ten minutes for some mysterious reason. Why don't you sit awkwardly in my big, stupid, round papizan chair over there while you wait for me. It's like you're sitting in a hug! Be right back...

Sorry that took a half an hour, I don't know what the hell I was doing in there. Let's go!

Rest of it's kinda "eh", but I found that bit particularly dead on.

I find this to be extermely funny seeing as NONE of it fits me...at all....

Well I really don't go to bars so number 1 is off.. I don't have anything from Ikea or Pier one...try target and possibly walmart...I hate having so many candles out if any at all...Don't have a cat(roomie has a dog). We don't have pictures on the fridge. We have menus on the fridge to order out. We don't have much alcohol if any at all usually. Ugh! I hate ugly stupid chairs!! Please we have normal chairs :) And I've never had many female friends to begin with for reasons I won't discuss with anyone but my best buddy.

Our house is pretty cool I think, my roomie has a good sense of decorating(unlike me, cause it'd be posters or anime scrolls or something up...) we have some kick ass stuff thanks to her, Big screen tv, nice leather couch, awesome kitchen ware.

Hate to say it but the apartment I had a few years after college was nothing like that. Well except the cat. But he didn't think he was a cat till he saw himself in the mirror for the first time. I had trained him to use a toilet and flush.

My apartment looked like a cross between DnD gamer geek and SCA arsonal. Yes I had weapons on the walls and shields. Plus tapestries. IN the corner was an armour stand with a full set of hand built armour Had a normal couch and tv. Bed was a futon that folded into a couch.

Place had a cd rack, about six book cases filled to bursting and a couple gothic candle holders that were never in use in the house. Much as I love candles I prefer to burn them outdoors for atmosphere. The book cases by the way were the standard planks and cinderblocks from Home Depot.

We had normal chairs, tables, coffee table. My room mate at the time decorated his room in a couple family pictures. Mine on the other hand had Jim Lee posters (Wild CATS, X-Men), and some other comics posters plus my long boxes in a corner. Oh and I kept a rapier and dagger under the pillows on the bed. My room mate worked nights and we were a groundfloor apartment.

Current townhouse has one description. Mess. :D

Cause you two girls don't really fit the stereotype that the article is parodying.

Remember ladies, if you're talking to a guy through instant message, we LOVE IT when in the middle of the conversation you type "brb", and then NEVER COME BACK.

Hell yeah! It's the best part, because it taunts us with hope you may come back and talk to us more.

That's usually a sign that she's not interested. :P

I kinda got the hint after she walked past me quickly while glancing at me from the corner of her eye to check if I noticed her. (another thing guys absolutely adore)
