The Problem with Everything is Girls Having Sex

Recently, I read an amazing editorial questioning whether or not the arrested development of this generation's males is caused by girls' willingness to have sex with them.

Here's the logic. Men want women, and do what it takes to get them. They dress nice, improve their grooming habits and obtain a marketable education to secure a high-paying job.

But, this only works in a competitive market. If girls are willing to sleep with guys regardless of merit - if expectations have lessened to the point where girls have sex without any prerequisites whatsoever - then a key evolutionary driver for the male species has been destroyed.

They're not lazy. They're simply getting what they want without the work.

The Playoffs Have Me Regretting Canceling Cable

Remember to comment on my post from Tuesday about figuring out what kind of intelligence I should be seeking, and where I should move to find it.

Tonight, the Bulls have their last chance to keep their hopes alive in the Eastern Conference Finals against the superstar-laden Miami Heat.

I have yet to watch a playoff game. This because I gave up cable. And while I love my Netflix and Hulu Plus via Roku, the Bulls games are only shown on TNT, not on local channels. This sucks.

If the Bulls happen to make the finals, I will get to watch the series on ABC. Until then, TNT has effectively monopolized the playoffs. At least during this series, they have been displaying the games online via TNT.tv. But, you are stuck watching a 4-camera angle (all of them bad) view of the game on your laptop. It's awful.

Can I call a Marx foul here? Should sports only be accessible by the wealthy? Won't someone think of the poor? Or at least the well off who thought they were being clever?
