Review: The Boy Recession

By Flynn Meaney
Rating: 4/5

Where have all the boys gone? The population of Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, is shrinking as families move to cities and towns with greener pastures, and the local high school is hurting: nearly all of the area's most eligible guys have moved or transferred schools. With little competition, the remaining boys find their stocks on the rise, and even the most unlikely candidates have a good chance at making the team and getting the girl. Guitar-strumming slacker Hunter Fahrenbach has made an art of blending into the background, but now desperate coaches are recruiting him and popular girls are noticing his scruffy good looks. With a little help, Hunter might even by boyfriend material... Down-to-earth Kelly Robbins has a simple wish for her junior year: "one normal, nice boy to crush on." Kelly and Hunter have always been friends, but is there something more to their platonic relationship? And can Kelly overcome the odds? After all, dating is hard enough without a four-to-one ratio

I picked up Bloodthirsty last year and despite hoping for a sequel featuring Luke pretending to be a werewolf (please?), this is not about that at all.

Douche face: A concept

Douche (noun, pronounciation. doosh): Short for douchebag, a person who acts inconsiderately of others, has the opinion that he/she is well liked.

Douche face is a phenomenon that I have encountered, wherein a person has a look about them, that makes them look like a douche, they have douche face.

The thing that gets me is how often it is right.

Try it out yourself, think of a person you know who is a douche, in particular an idiot who thinks that they are cool or popular, etc but that they are the only one who thinks so.

Go to their facebook page (in a new window/tab please), now think of another, you should know at least two (if you don't congrats!!) and go to their facebook page as well.

Compare their profile pics (so long as they aren't car pics, it is an unfortunate fact that douchebagism affects more guys than girls) what is similar? probably their expressions, you will now recognise douches at a glance.

Of course this is just my opinion, but test it out reality TV show contestants, the douchiest ones look similar.
