Jerry "that guy" Boy-man

Walking into the classroom with the washed out jeans, holes in the knees. Wearing the blazer that covers the tee-shirt; hair styled with gel, and the aviator sunglasses, he believes that he controls the world. Speaking with an over-the-top pompous style, he acts as if he is above it all.

Women swoon over him, adding to the air bubble that is his inflated ego. He walks with his shoulders squared, oozing his air of supremacy. He enters late, expects extensions on his work, and acts as if he is entitled to all these treats for breathing.

His smile, as he knows, can make a girls breathing hitch, and he uses this knowledge every chance he gets. He’s “that guy.” Jerry is proud of being “that guy,” he likes what it gets him.

Jerry made his vital mistake one day, when he opened his mouth and his vile, uneducated views flooded out of his lips. “I’m not dating a woman who’s past her prime,” he suavely says. “The varicose veins are enough to keep me away. I will not date a woman older than 40.”

In a class room is a. Not the place to share info about your love life, past, present, or future, and b. Not the place to piss off your 15 some odd female peers. But Jerry has balls, he doesn’t care. He said what he said, and has the confidence to back it up. The teacher gets us back on focus. Jerry seems unscathed. But when he is old and grey, I hope he realized that body appearance isn’t everything. The imperfection is where perfection really lies.

“That guy” is the reason women hold themselves to such impossible standards. He is the reason that girls stave themselves to unhealthy level, the reason that a curvy girl doesn’t appreciate their bodies. Why when a lady reaches a certain age she believes her love life is over. Why women of a certain age, waits for the day her husband leaves her, trading her in for a newer model. “That guy” is a sickness; to bad our own cowardice prevents us from gaining the cure.

First Blog

Hello Readers.

First and Foremost, Welcome.

Secondly, this blog is going to be extremely short stories, based on everything. My random thoughts, things that I see in life, things I've experienced, people that piss me off and whatnot. A place to put thoughts down about everything. Also to stretch my creative legs, so to speak.

Third and finally.
This blog is a third blog for me. I have my personal blog, http://221825926.livejournal.com/profile
my political blog (using the world political very loosely), justiceview.wordpress.com
and now this blog. Feel free to check out the other two. I have a different voice on each....

Other random points of fact.
I know my writing is not perfect, as I am a creature of imperfection. I miss words, change them, or order them in a way that only my brain can decode. But please hop on my crazy train and ride along.
Wednesdays are my blog days. Sometime I'll be so enraged, that I will post at other times.

now....the welcome ....
