My Cage "Classic" 07/09/2008
Added 2022-01-05 12:45:00 +0000 UTCThis used to happen all the time to one of the people Maureen is based on. One time, right after going to court for a ticket, the cop who gave her the ticket asked her out.

2022-01-17 17:23:56 +0000 UTCI have a friend who had looks like this for a couple decades. It's kind of like having a lot of money--it's hard to tell what people's motivations are for liking you. I saw it a lot. And while a lot of college was unrequited crushes for me, I was always relieved that I wasn't handed the same scope for making mistakes--guys who were assholes didn't hesitate to be assholes around a average-to-cute nerdy girl. It was off-putting to see them on their best behavior around her and other girls. . . I guess I'll just say "at her level", and to wonder if I'd be able to see them for what they were if it were always concealed around me. Cartoonist Kate Beaton once said something to her strikingly beautiful older sister that sums it up perfectly: "I hate those hot-shit meatheads who are always buzzing around you. I don't think they even see a person in there."
