The Dos and Don’ts of Dealing with the Ex

So I’m sure by now you’re all completely over the whole royal wedding thing.You’re tired of the wedding plans and the photos and the guest lists and the entire country of England. I get it. But I’m going to bring it up one last time because I just can’t seem to wrap my head around this one concept.

According to Jezebel the prince and his blushing bride will be inviting six of their exes to the wedding. ( 2 of hers. 4 of his). And apparently there’s some sort of etiquette behind this that requires them to do so. But I mean, come on. I know they’re royalty and all and they don’t have much of a choice, but is this something the rest of us are going to have to do as well? I hope not. Because I definitely won’t be inviting my exes anywhere. I don’t even want to see them at the coffee shop never mind at the rehearsal dinner…

This train of thought of course, got me thinking about my own ex encounters, which had me cringing and triumphing  at each one in turn.  And this of course had me thinking about the dos and don’ts of ex-boyfriends, and that, of course, is how you wound up with this list.

Do remove your ex from your Facebook feed. Seeing his obnoxious statuses about babes and beer everyday is not going to help you get over him. The more he pops up on your newsfeed the more you’ll want to head over to his page and stalk him read through his wall. Avoid the temptation and hide him!

The 50 Most Popular Men on the Web (According to Google) 2010

How many times a week a day do you Google yourself? An embarrassing amount, right? Almost as embarrassing as the amount of time I spend diagnosing myself with fatal diseases on WebMD. But when we’re not googling our own name and Facebook stalking our frenemies, we’re googling (and ogling) guys. Like, a lot. So we wanted to do a totally scientific study (please note that we did this research while also doing research on the effects of Four Loko on a professional work day) on the most googled guys on the internet. And we were SHOCKED by the results. Like apparently no one else is as into Barry Manilow as I am. But a lot of people are really into Ne-Yo. Who knew?! Now you do!



Princess Life vs. College Life: Who Has It Better?

When the news of Prince William’s engagement to long-time girlfriend Kate Middleton hit the Internet several weeks ago, hearts all over the world broke in two. Women’s dreams of becoming the newest member of the Royal Family were shattered in an instant. It’s undeniable that Kate’s life will soon be transformed; she’ll suddenly enjoy the glamorous and luxurious life of a Blue Blood– a way of life that is envied by any female that has ever watched a Disney princess movie.

Yet, there have to be some downsides. There must be some aspects of “normal” life that she will miss. Perhaps the Royal Life isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Frankly, I adore being a college student. And, I’m not so sure I would be able to sacrifice the awesomeness of my current lifestyle to become the prim and proper Princess of Wales.

In order to sort it all out (and make myself feel a little better about my dream husband taking someone else as his wife), I thought I’d do a little comparing and contrasting. Who really has it better – Princess Kate or little ol’ me? Read More »


WTF Happened to Prince William?

There’s something that’s been on my mind recently, and I’m hoping I’m not the only one who has noticed. But seriously, what happened to Prince William and when exactly did he get assaulted with the ugly stick? Because with every day that passes, William begins to look more and more like his father, and that’s a genetic battle that he is most definitely going to lose.

I don’t want to succumb to my shallow side and say that it’s the hair that makes the man, but in Prince William’s case, it certainly is. His picture is showing up in the press due to all of his good deeds and charity work, but what seems to be getting more attention is the shocking lack of hair atop his royal head.

I can only imagine how Will feels when he gets ready for sleep each night, dutifully applying his Rogaine and remembering the days when he used to be the playboy of England. I bet there are some tears on his pillow (most definitely mixed in with the hairs that fall out of his head throughout the night). At least, I know there would be on mine. It can’t be easy knowing you’ve reached your peak of attractiveness at the ripe age of 26. Read More »

Just The Tip, Prince Willy…

bangers-mash.jpg

Well, ladies, if you have ever wondered what Prince Willy’s willy looks like…today is your lucky day.Pictures have surfaced of the future King of England with his junk out and about for the world to see. This is the peepee that will lead the future of England… the royal scepter, the monarch manhood, the regal wanker in Cockingham Palace!

But, seriously, WTF is he doing? and why is he holding his bangers and mash like a fag? (English word of the day: Fag is a cigarette, and he is seriously holding it like one.)

Maybe that’s how they do it in the UK…you know, like how they drive on the other side of the road?

I don’t know…but I never would have thought that I would see the future ruler of England takin’ a leak on a fence.

That is definitely not proper, Willy, your Grandmama would have a fit! Find a loo!!!


Prince Harry Pulled Out of Combat After Leak

Prince Harry takes on the Taliban

The last time we heard this much about Prince Harry, England’s third in line for the throne, was after all those kooky pictures surfaced of his royal highness done up like a Nazi at a fancy dress party in 2005.

After that highly embarrassing incident, Harry, of course, apologized profusely, and, being as the world couldn’t resist those ginger locks and easy going charm, everyone outside of the UK sort of went back to an–albeit slightly suspicious–indifference. After all, he’s probably never going to be king and he’s not as cute as Prince William who has those endearingly large chompers and an adorable crush on Beyonce.

The focus has returned back to the younger brother, however, when a story surfaced on the Drudge Report that the 23-year old has been fighting on the frontlines of Afganistan since December. The British press had agreed to keep Prince Harry’s location quiet after early plans to deploy Harry to Iraq were scrapped fearing security risks. Since this leak, The “Bullet Magnet” of Wales has been pulled out of active combat and will be sent back to the UK fearing for the safety of the Prince as a high priority target of the Taliban.
