There are 3 beautiful new receptionists at the place where I work. While this makes my day a little more enjoyable sadly it seems I am neither attractive enough or important enough for any of them to yet acknowledge my existence.
I like!
No thanks!

You aren't important enough for a lowly receptionist to pay attention to?
In other news I was recently shocked to discover not one but two women have rated me highly for looks on OKCupid. I think I'm more bemused than flattered, but it is interesting to consider that "attractive women with low standards" might not be just a dreamy myth after all.

Speaking from personal experience, you do not want to date the receptionist anyway. She is probably crazy and moonlights as a bartender and gets fired for showing up drunk and is $25,000 in credit card debt!

You are lucky I am not at home or I'd show you my insane receptionist. But she was so pretty.
@ El Indio: Some people's lives are movies. Capote, Ali, Nixon, T.S. Garp, Navin R. Johnson. You seem to be misinformed.
I am happy to accept your "tough love", so long as it is limited to aphorisms.
@ ilikedginger : These are fancy receptionists, they are likely to be from rich cultured families and as such naturally inclined not speak to the likes of me.
I spend much of my day decorating the galleries or building stuff so am generally dusty/dirty, in shabby clothes and don't really have any reason for dealing with them. I say hello to and am friendly with anyone who chooses to not ignore me though.
@ Community Toy : Crazy drunkard, poor and pretty. Doesn't sound so bad. I'm at least two of those myself. (And at most 3)
@ flyingfishstick : Not yet. I haven't been introduced and have had no reason to deal with them yet.

"... important enough for any of them to yet acknowledge my existence."
You know, they might feel the same about you. In my experience, your looks and your prestige aren't nearly as important to most women as you showing an interest in them. Just talking to them can go a long way. Asking them to lunch/dinner/coffee can go even further.
Sadly, this is why most jerks/players seem to attract a lot of women - because they show them attention. Unfortunately, that attention is phony and short-lived.

you know, this thread would be better with photographic evidence.
It would wouldn't it? Sadly I don't think surreptitiously photographing attractive women I have yet to speak to would help me continue to make friends at work. Or continue to be employed potentially.
@ soulcamp : "You know, they might feel the same about you."
Pahahahaha.
No.
@ DannyPriapism : I don't know where either Carlo or Namrok are. Sorry.

She would do shitty things like not show up and not call and then run up and apologize profusely when I ran into her next at work. You know, it would have been hard to call and cancel instead of just STANDING ME UP. She was not a cool person.
@ El Indio : We're cool my man. The tough love response was gonna be more elaborate and feature a "squeal piggy" joke in there somewhere, but I'm tired and not really up to it.
It seems my tone here seems generally dour and miserable which doesn't reflect my actual mood. Maybe I'm a little ratty. I should probably sleep.

yeah, im trying to post quickly in between instances of pretending like im doing something. not at our best today, perhaps.
@ L : Pictures plural? Intriguing. Anyway, thank you. I am reminded of the substitute sneezing blessing from Seinfeld.
And I suspect you are a little biased due to the art making, cineaste inclination, genial misanthropy, etc. You are a bit more familiar with my "inner beauty" than most.

a picture, i suppose. i'd need more to really make a determination. and yeah, i'm completely biased. you make art, thus i like you.
yeah, well, life isn't a movie.
this is my "tough love" to you.
