How to Survive the Leg Humper, The Cheapskate, Level IV, and those Drunk on Arrival (DOA) dates…
Desperate to flee the ranting politico? Calmly explain that you’re running late to pick up your mom, who has just been released from prison because she blew up an army recruitment facility and the pigs got sooo uptight about it! Do you find yourself on a date with the leg humper that even gives Cesar the Dog Whisperer vertigo? Treat the man like the dog that he is, and you’ll finally find use for that old newspaper and can of pepperspray that your father might have gifted you for Christmas.
In , Seattle Weekly Dategirl columnist Judy McGuire offers a send-up of perversely hilarious dating horror stories, along with sound prescriptive advice on how detect those warning signs (a homemade cd with a buxom blonde leaning over a hot rod and the very apt title: SMACK DAT ASS), how to exit the date gracefully (or not), and how to discern if you (oh no! the horror) are indeed the problem.
McGuire’s book is an essential survive guide on how to cope with the guerrilla warfare know as the dating scene. Buy it! Shove it your bag! Share the Oh! I’ve-Been-There stories with your very sympathetic girlfriends.
