Hey, hey, I may be ugly and hate-filled, but I… um, what was the third thing you said?
Of all the characters I could have become, I never thought I’d be Moe.
Last night, in Springfield, Moe met a beautiful woman through the internet, but his inability to stop being a troll of a man ended the relationship.
I’m on the road to being a Moe. Why couldn’t I be a Lenny or a Lionel Hutz or an Apu? No, I gotta be a Moe. I’ve been working so hard not to become a Comic Book Guy or a Principal Skinner that I didn’t see this coming.
D’OH!
Sorry about the disappointing first go. Better luck next time.
Good news is, its Monday! That’s good because now you have all week to not think about girls.
Trust me, I plan on not thinking about girls all week too.

Do you normally think about girls?
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 6, 2009 @ 11:16 am
Only in terms of what they’re wearing or how they did their hair. LOL
Comment by Rachel — July 7, 2009 @ 1:14 pm
Like the hair… down there…

At least your not Homer. Wait, he’s married. It’s not too late to change! Moe’s got a few years of bitterness on you…

I got quite a few years of bitterness myself, you know.
Also got lots of needyness and clingyness.

You can’t be Moe unless you are willing to screw over your best friend/customer by stealing his drink recipe, or sending him to jail so you can get a girl. And you don’t seem like that type so you’re not Moe.
The nice thing about internet-dating is that there is usually a “next!” after one doesn’t work out, so you can just happily focus on someone new.
Oh and at least you don’t have to fear winding up a Ms. Hoover or a crazy cat lady. The former is my fear, the latter is my mother’s.

You better watch out, I think you’re headed down to road to Eleanor Abernathy.
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 6, 2009 @ 11:17 am
It appears you were talking about Moe from the Simpsons, which radically changes the context, because I assumed you were talking about Moe Howard — slapper, eye-poker, and general alpha and omega to brothers Larry, Curly, and Shemp.
I never suggest you take the road less skeeved so you could find the Yeti of your dreams — I suggested it for this very reason. Yeah, things don’t always work out the way you might like them too, but in the end being out there swinging and learning what you want (and how your behaviour can sometimes contribute to the issue) is far better than sitting at home wondering what the problem is.
ps — Be a Moe Howard. Dude rocked.
Comment by Hex — July 6, 2009 @ 10:17 am
I wish I was Moe Howard. Even do my hair like his from time to time.
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 6, 2009 @ 11:18 am
At least Moe owned a bar!
That being said move onto the next person…this could take all year by the way to find someone you click with.

I’m still trying, not giving up. But last night I noticed way too msny similarities.
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 6, 2009 @ 11:18 am
Moe? I can see that.
Comment by Bob at York — July 6, 2009 @ 11:09 am
Oh damn. It’s that obvious, isn’t it? I guess it’s suicide for me again.
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 6, 2009 @ 11:19 am
I’m totally Marge. :-\
Could it just be your perception, or did she actually say “You’re a troll”?
Comment by Sherri — July 6, 2009 @ 12:59 pm
Hair up or down?
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 6, 2009 @ 3:56 pm
At least Moe is in charge . . . you could be Shemp. Pity that thought. And getting discouraged will only lead to a vicious cycle. It’s a law of averages at some point.
Comment by BDS — July 6, 2009 @ 1:04 pm
Rather be Shemp than Joe Besser.
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 6, 2009 @ 3:57 pm
I’ll toss my hat in with the others; I think you could’ve been a lot worse off than Moe. And I don’t think you’re headed that way. I think you’ll be able to shuck this one off and move onto the next one; the ‘Net’s full of ‘em, bud, just loaded down with ‘em.
It’ll get better.

Only time will tell.
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 6, 2009 @ 3:57 pm
*sigh* You’re not Moe. You’re not Comic Book Guy or Skinner either.

You’re a great catch who just hasn’t found the right lady yet.
Comment by DarcsFalcon — July 6, 2009 @ 6:38 pm
Didn’t Moe date a midget? Maybe that’s your thing.
Comment by wiwille — July 7, 2009 @ 11:05 am
I got nothing against midgets, or little people or whatever they’re called these days.
My problem is that I’d be too tempted to, you know, toss ‘em.
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 7, 2009 @ 11:15 am
why would you try to toss them? Also what makes you think you could lift another person.
Comment by Bob at York — July 7, 2009 @ 11:24 am
ever heard of dwarf tossing?
Comment by whatigotsofar — July 7, 2009 @ 2:18 pm
Yes, but I don’t understand why you would participate in such an activity.
Comment by Bob at York — July 7, 2009 @ 2:22 pm
I saw that show. You’re not Moe. You don’t have hate lines. And you don’t go to the library to use the internet.
Comment by Sparklingred — July 7, 2009 @ 2:06 pm
I do so have hate lines.
