There's a New Obama Girl in Town

Dating in D.C. is notoriously hard for women. A D.C. resident named Rachel has made a parody of the infamous "Obama Girl" video, in which she chronicles her break-up with a guy who loves Barack Obama more than her. It's pretty well done. (via the DCist tipline)

Aw man, I wish I had that excuse...

 

There is a ton of man-crush on Obama going on at my office right now. I haven't seen this much man-on-man's-man love since the great Tom Brady Man Crush of Aught-Seven.

 

Dating in D.C. is notoriously hard for women. Fixed that for you

 

whoa, its even more less funny and more totally annoying than the original. who coulda thunk it.

 

That is pretty annoying. And, since it underscores dating woes of us DC ladies, makes me think I'll just spend the weekend with the good tequila I brought back from Mexico. Anyone want to join me?

 

So you're saying she's single...?

 

I think it was a well done video even if some do not like the contebt of its message.

 

eh. don't quit your day internship.

 

she's not going to have trouble finding someone new...

 

maybe she wont find someone new soon because she's batshit crazy, possessive and has no personality.

Society places too much emphasis on looks :)

 

"Dating in D.C. is notoriously hard for women."

......Since when? Being a DCian all my life, let me just say that is the most backwards, nonsense statement I have ever heard!

 

Fact: According to the 2000 Census, DC has the highest single woman: single man ratio of any state (or, y'know, not-state) in the country.

It's hard out here, guys...

 

Three words, ladies: lower your standards.

You'd be surprised how many dates you'd get by simply walking into any hipster bar and shout, "LET'S F********K! I'LL F**K ANYTHING THAT MOVES! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Worked for Dennis Hopper.

 

As Barney Gumble said, MAYBE YOUR STANDARDS ARE TOO HIGH

 

Come on, "thejasonist." I, you, and your third-grade English teacher all know that "more less funny" is grammatically incorrect. Sped.

I think it's quite a well-done video.

 

I feel her pain. My fiancee is an Obama staffer - and that makes me a campaign widow until November

 

"Fact: According to the 2000 Census, DC has the highest single woman: single man ratio of any state (or, y'know, not-state) in the country."

Ah yes, but the "y'know, not-state" phrase is key. The question is what is DC's ranking as a city. Who cares how it stands versus Rhode Island or Idaho?

Actually, who cares period? These stats are useless. It's not like there's a single dating pool. The single-girl to single-guy ratio of Barry Farms is not going to be relevant to the ratio in Dupont, and vice-versa. Yet the overall ratio reflects both.

 

PABST BLUE RIBBON!!!

 

But it is a GREAT dating city for guys. The standards lower eventually, and when they do, the guys are there waiting in thier douchey office button downs and baseball caps like bears at a salmon run.

 

It's easy to find dates in DC...if you're a gay man.
