Huh? Bwahahahaaahahahahah! I know that I've fallen victim to a couple of hoaxes in the past, but I couldn't resist this one....

Really. It sounds too good to be true. It's a trap (AKBAR!) that's been put up just to snare me. But what if it's not? Could I really rent an imaginary girlfriend to impress my family and friends? < looks at left ring finger > I mean, not that I would. Really. Stop loking at me like that. I mean it. But think about the poor unfortunate males in the world, who lack the social graces or intestinal fortitude to approach a woman, let alone have a relationship with one. They will finally be able to get their parents/friends/relatives off their backs, by boldly crying "I HAVE AN ONLINE GIRLFRIEND!" And what about the closeted gay male? Won't someone please think of the closeted gay male?

  • I personally think this is brilliant (Not for you obviously Jim/Pepe *glares*). But they should have imaginary boyfriends for all the socially awkward gals out there too. It would be nice if all those lonely souls didn't have to go to e-bay.
  • Does she hassle you for coming home drunk after a night out with the boys, or is that extra?
  • Nothing new about this. I'm already Imaginary Boyfriend to several people. Of course, that's my imagination, not theirs. Misty, I think, was my favourite from the selection on offere here. Stop thinking about this stop thinking about this stop thinking about this. Gah!
  • Play Misty for me!
  • I tried, but she won't return my calls. That's an imaginary girlfriend for you.
  • All together now... I'm gonna buy a Paper Doll that I can call my own A doll that other fellows cannot steal And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes Will have to flirt with dollies that are real When I come home at night she will be waiting She'll be the truest doll in all this world I'd rather have a Paper Doll to call my own Than have a fickle-minded real live girl I guess I've had a million dolls or more I guess I've played the doll game over and over I just quarrelled with Sue That's why I'm blue She's gone away and left me Just like all dolls do I'll tell you boys it's tough to be alone And it's tough to love a doll that's not your own I'm through with all of them I'll never love again Say Boys! What ya gonna do? I'm gonna buy a paper doll That I can call my own A doll that other fellas cannot steal And then the flirty, flirty guys With their flirty, flirty eyes Will have to flirt with dollies that are real When I come home at night She will be waiting She'll be the truest doll in all the world I'd rather have a paper doll To call my own Then have a fickle minded, real live girl recorded by The Mills Brothers in 1942
