I brung Nancy to the dance but she runt off with George. Will I ever learn?

[Philosoraptor]

I'd always heard that you have to dance with them that brung ya, but I found out the hard way that it don't always work out that a way. I brung my bestest girl Nancy to the dance last fall, I was so dang proud of her and all the guys was real jealous too. But like a fool I was over gittin' punch and talkin' to old buddys and I looked up and she was dancin' with George, who I really hate a lot.

Well I got plum fed up and started over to let that George have a piece o' my mind and my buddys held me back and said to not git all excited just cause Nancy danced with George cause after all, we was at a dance, and then I looked up and they was both GONE! Runt off!

I guess I should just face the facts, Nancy could've never gone out with a loser like me, I got no fancy car and lots o' dough like George does the lucky bastard. I guess I'll just crawl back home and sulk a while and then maybe I'll look up ol' Judy or Lurlene, they ain't the best lookin' girls in town, but they don't put on no airs, and they always laugh at my jokes.

But just in case, I'm keepin' Nancy's number for when George fucks her over and dumps her in the alley.

1. Are you stupid or what?

2. Not familiar with Philosoraptor ?

The 'raptor is one of our DU treasures and is definitely not in the stupid category, so that would be "or what". But we drug this out long enough.

5. Exactly. Same shit, different day.

6. Ouch.

I'm telling mom.

3. I just wanna hit him, but that won't do.

I know how ya feel. I thought Nancy was my best friend, or at least she didn't laugh at me and make fun of me like the other girls. She even let me sit at her table in the cafeteria, because she said it was a big table with plenty of room at it for all kinds of people. So when the time came to vote for Homecoming Queen, I voted for her, and for all her friends to be part of her court. And they won.

But then the next time I tried to sit at her table, she said one thing I would have to understand was that impeachment was off it. I don't know, I just thought that if I voted for her and her friends, maybe there'd be half a chance of seeing some impeachment on that table. But no way. Instead, I find that she's moved over to George's table, and is now giggling and laughing behind her hand at something while I sit here at the table we used to sit at, and watch. I get the feeling it's me she's laughing at.

When I go up to her and ask her why she doesn't seem to want to sit with our old table anymore, she just shakes her head and says "It didn't have enough votes."

4. The woman is fickle, for sure

Here I was over dancing with Henry Waxman, who's got to be the ugliest boy in school, but sure is smart, and that other Nancy switched sides!

She gave being a Nancy a bad name!

And, "Right on, Brother!"
