Bachelor Contest Winner Chooses PS2, Not Girl

techstar25 writes "IGN is reporting that last night was singles night at a San Francisco Giants baseball game, and a 'The Bachelorette' type contest was held. The winning bachelor was given a choice to either take the beautiful, young, brunette bachelorette out on an all expenses paid date, or receive a Playstation 2. Naturally, the bachelor took the PS2, and 'The men in the audience cheered.'" The article notes: "Looks like when it comes down to a choice between video games and female attention, these days, videogames are winning out."

    Um, of course, it was San Francisco? While I'm sure the breeders still out number the non-breeders, there's a pretty good chance the guy "wasn't interested."

    Or, at least that's what the gal will be telling herself for some time to come, no doubt...

    "Better the hand you know than the hand you don't" is what I always say. If you want something done right, you've got to do it yourself.

    The Playstation here is categorized as excercise equipment, as long as the controllers are manipulated virorously for at least 20 minutes, 3 times a week.

    Yeah, but you have to keep spending money on the PS2 to buy new games. Wouldn't that make it more expensive in the long ...

    Wait, nevermind.

    I have a revision to your theory that looks*intelligence = constant. Since there are plenty of women who are both stupid AND ugly, such as Rush Limbaugh, this principle does not hold in general. However super-smart hot girls are as rare as top quarks. The few exceptions are rips in the space-time continuum. Therefore I submit that looks*intelligence k*Q^2, where Q is the supermodel-stupidity quotient (SSQ) and k is the Really Fucking Lucky (RFL) parameter, which equals e^(does god like you?).
