What Your Favorite TV Show Says About You on a Date → howaboutwe.com

The West Wing: You’re a really good person, but you’re kind of annoying.

The Newsroom: You’re a questionably good person, and you’re kind of annoying.

The Mindy Project: You’re so single it hurts.

Fringe: When you were a kid, your parents never let you stay up to watch “The X-Files.”

How I Met Your Mother: You have a cheesy catchphrase for every occasion.

Jennifer Aniston's Wedding Is Doomed → theatlanticwire.com

Well, here we go. This is how it starts. Or how it ends. Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux’s wedding plans are apparently on hold. So this is it. Here it is. Poor old Jennifer Aniston, the lonely old maid of the Southland, is about to lose love once again. Who knows what’s happened. Perhaps she showed him too many of her mysterious curio rooms, full of jars of hair labeled “Vince” and “John” and “Brad.” Maybe he was actually awake, only pretending to be asleep, all the times she whispered “Never leave me” into his ear at night before pouring in a strange potion that felt both cold and warm. Maybe he heard her rattling around in the basement, the sound of things clanking and crashing, she speaking in a strange, squakwing voice he’d never heard before, saying “Angelina, Annnnngeliiiiiina, ANGELINAAAAAA” over and over and over again. Who knows what she could have done, what strange spinster horrors she might have subjected him to, but the point is that the wedding is on hold. And of course it will soon prove to be a silly dream that will never happen. This is the beginning of the end. Because that old witch said “never” when she gave Jennifer Aniston the role on Friends, and as the ancients tell us, never is a promise. Those were the terms of the spell. A lifetime of fame and stardom in exchange for all the love that might come her way. At the time Jennifer thought it would be fine, but now, oh cruel, cruel now, now she knows it was a huge mistake. The wedding is postponed. Because of course it would always be postponed. Because— Hm? What’s that? They’re busy with home renovations and both just took new jobs so they’re putting the plans on hold for a sec because they’re both grownups who don’t need to get married right now? Oh, OK, I see. Never mind. Sorry, guys! False alarm.

You’ll probably spend at least one night in the next five years on an air mattress, next to a plastic box from the Container store that’s doubling as a night stand, lying awake to the sound of an old man’s phlegmy cough, in some distant, distant part of the city. (But it will probably be worth it, even if you do have to use the map feature on your phone the next morning to find out where the heck you are.) → howaboutwe.com

“You don’t need a relationship to make you happy. You are the culmination of centuries of women who protested in pantaloons for your right to spend a Tuesday night reading a book with a glass of wine instead of cooking dinner for the family you felt societal pressure to have.” —
