Our Love's in Jeopardy

Okay I have a bit of thing for game shows. I always have loved them and probably always will. The thing is, watching them and playing along is only so much fun when you're alone.

What does it mean to be single? It means getting super difficult Final Jeopardy questions right and only having yourself to congratulate, well, yourself.

Case in point: "2 of the 3 countries that are completely encircled by one other country."

Me, alone, to myself: "Oh, well Vatican City, obvs, and then that one in South Africa, uhhh Lesotho?"

Alex Trebek: "...Vatican City, San Marino, Lesotho."

Me, alone, to myself: "OMG did anyone just see that? I got that. I GOT THAT. What a spectacular display of useless knowledge! Someone had to have witnessed this! I impressed someone, right??"

**crickets**

Hmph.

Sure, every now and then I watch Jeopardy with someone else. Of course I don't perform nearly as well, but whatevs. I'm totally content impressing myself, congratulating myself, amazing myself.

And someday, someone will witness first-hand my arsenal of useless knowledge on the reg. I'm sure of it.

Survey Says

So I'm watching Family Feud (yeah whatever) and they're playing the final segment of the show and one of the questions is, "We surveyed 100 men: how many ex-boyfriends can a girl have before it's too many?" I'm thinking, oh let's see, 10? Maybe 15? I don't know; how many boyfriends have I had?

Then they answer:

"Um, 3!"

"Ohh let's say, 5!"

What. These silly people...

Then, out of the 100 men surveyed, 5 was the top answer.

Who are these girls that date 5 (or less) dudes and have already found their soulmate? More importantly, how is FIVE too many? And what do they mean by "too many?" Was that a subtle way of asking, at what point are you an unstable tramp who's no longer appealing to the opposite sex?

Five.

My goodness.
