absurdity

i'm depressed because i can't get a girlfriend.

my friends are extra supportive...
-"seriously, R, I don't get it, you're not that ugly (wow, thanks, i feel great now) and you're not that unpleasant (jeez, wow, I really feel good about myself now). I think you're just too demanding"

-"too demanding, really? how? too demanding as in I want girls who are not that ugly nor that unpleasant??"

-"exactly, you need to drop all those ridicilousm society-imposed-unattainable-standards!!"
