re: the most embarrassed you’ve ever been

Back in the a/s/l days of AOL, I was fooled by the devil that is the angled picture.

I arranged to meet this girl in Starkville and she was gross fat. I still don't know how she fooled me that bad - was it an old picture? Had she put on 100 lbs. in a year?

We were going to eat at a certain place, and I came up with a bullshite excuse that there was too many people - I knew a guy that worked there and I called him to see how crowded it was (I didn't know anyone that worked there) and just sort of hung her out to dry.

The same night, I called a girl that I had gotten her number in real life. We go out and we are heading home and she says she needs to go check on her roommate - some a-hole just left her hanging earlier in the night.

I did what anyone would have done. I dropped the class I had with her and never saw her again.
