What It's All About

Well, I chose the Naked Dating Club as a blog title before I knew there really was one. However, it is all about the spirit of the thing. Wouldn't it be nice to go somewhere where the people are genuine and they say what they mean? A lot of a person's day is spent sorting out the truth.

People speak like Shakespeare wrote; there is about three layers. Take, for example, the answer to Susie Somebody's question. Her question is, "Bobby Bonehead, my new boyfriend, wouldn't answer my phone calls last night. And then I heard that Brenda Brrrittzsky, known for her big boobs, was talking to him at the football game last night. Did you see her talking to him??!?!"

And the person she asks is thinking, Gosh. Look at all those question marks and exclamation points. Yeah, I saw Brenda Brrrritzsky talking to Bonehead, but Suzie is a real pain and even though we are in tenth grade I am still hurting from that time she embarrassed me in eighth grade band camp during lunch in front of those hot guys. I don't want to get involved really because this is stupid. So I'll answer like this: "Um. I saw her talk to him for like, two minutes or so. I think she was asking him for directions to Darin's party. But then Bobby hung out with his friends and threw popcorn at the little kids. So, did you get your biology done?"

So now we put the reply through the Shakespeare filter, and this is what we get: "I saw her talk to him for, like, two minutes" really means I only saw two minutes of it, but rumor says he was talking to her for at least half the game. "I think she was asking him for directions to Darin's party" - True Dat. She did ask him directions. But Brenda Brrrittzsky lives on Darin's street. "Bobby hung out with his friends and threw popcorn at the little kids" - well, one little kid, really. It was Bobby's ten-year-old cousin who was annoying Bobby and his friends as they got ready to leave, so he dumped a bag of popcorn over his head.

Okay, so that said, back to the point. The Naked Dating Club is all about being as real as we can get. With our clothes on.
