"... the bozo insisted."

I'm only blogging this article because I love the frank admission that this isn't journalism that is revealed by the use of the phrase "the bozo insisted."

The article, in the "Living" section of the NY Post, is "I busted my boyfriend for cheating — when he lasted too long in bed."
A jilted woman is going viral after revealing how she figured out that her boyfriend was cheating — when he unexpectedly got better in bed....

“I feel pretty bad and I’m disappointed in myself because there’s something I haven’t told you,” [he wrote in response to her TikTok]. “One of the boys invited two girls on our cabin trip, and I ended up sleeping with one of them.”...

The remorseful man went on to claim that he had no “desire to do anything” with those women, but things took a turn after one of the gals “had to sleep over because they couldn’t get home” — and there were only two beds, he claimed.

“She slept in my room, and it went as it did, but that’s no excuse anyway, I thought it was stupid of me,” the bozo insisted.
For the record, the bozo got a second chance and she now says he's "a very sweet and nice boy."

No woman wants a man no other woman wants.

I HOPE, she realizes that she's got "the gal" to thank.. In more ways than one

More pictures than words in the link. The poor lady is auditioning.

Made up. Fake News.

Eleanor said...

If she gave him a second chance, she's the bozo.

I was going to link to John Mulaney, but someone beat me to it!

That was my reaction as well.

@Humperdink - True dat. If the number of gratuitous photos wasn't proof enough then the glass of white wine she was so artfully posed holding was. That and the fact that she's all smiles - maybe for more reasons than one - but still.

Ann ... did you realize that you are on the cutting edge of American journalism today?

You sit around watching TikTok all day too and then tell us what's on TikTok.

That's cutting edge.

Why, I remember back in the day, reporters and editors would piss away the day reading Reddit and then telling us what some rando said on Reddit.

Did they have buggy whips back then?

I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

Wedged between their fine writing on "designer vaginas" and "a restaurant shamed my big boobs."

I only read it for the sports section.

The guy’s a bozo all right. He picked the wrong one.

mikee said...

Because she is giving him continued sexual access to herself, not just as a second chance but more as a free pass on his infidelity, I suspect she (1) enjoys his newly learned skills, (2) has the self-respect of a doormat, and (3) needs to review how STDs are transmitted for her own safety.

Or perhaps she now sees how easily he could end their relationship and is eager to avoid that. Which is sad, as she just doesn't see that her sexual use by the guy is validated by her as just one option among all the other women available to him. But yay, feminist sexual freedom from traditional morals, which would have her put him on the curb with the other trash for his behavior and for her own good.

Really? That is the only reason we suspect that this isn't journalism? This is just a text version of her TikTok post. Isn't a journalist supposed to ask some questions?

Was there any reason she expected monogamy without having discussed that aspect of the relationship with the man involved?

The boyfriend confessed via Snapchat, and that disappoints her. Why did she think it was appropriate to tell the story on TikTok? Have they discussed social media boundaries?

Why was her TikTok account suspended?

Bozo was legit. No shame there. It's the rest if these wannabes boffing around that give clowns a bad name. Rank amateurs.

How is that story newsworthy

hpudding said...

It’s one thing not to like/be any good at sex @8:17. But to provide so many rationalizations for that is a little too much protesting, and kind of sad.

They impress me as uninteresting people focused on trivia, not life.

Marcus Bressler said...

It could have been worse. She could have went down on him and came to that same conclusion due to the quantity of ejaculation.
The Beta would have first lied and said he masturbated just hours prior to their coupling, hence the extra two minutes. LOLz
The Alpha would have not confessed, but told her that they were not in a monogamous relationship. No real man would accept the publicity this chick was after. But I agree, it's made up.

I was going to say:

"The Old Gray Lady.

She ain't what she used to be."

Then I see that this is the Post, not the Times.

I thought the New York Post had more class than that.

Joe Smith said...

Sounds like the cabin chick taught him some new tricks and the girlfriend is appreciative...

And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson...

Mulaney is actually funny.

It's good to see that the Post is still, after all, the Post.

Haha. Well played…If not apropos may I hijack and share my only clown story…In high school I worked at a lovely banquet hall that often hosted multiple events simultaneously. While a wedding was happening in the main room a smaller party had hired a clown called ‘Rollo’, a bookish little woman who garnered a fair bit of fame and promotion for herself in local television and print media. So Rollo was tasked to greet this smaller party’s guests, posted herself up outside, began mixing up all the guests for both events and directing them all to the wedding reception. Once we discovered the cause of the chaos I was tasked to inform Rollo of the error and assist with correction. I’ll just say Rollo was none too pleased at this high school kid’s audacity to question her impeccable performance. I thought she gonna take a swing at me…

So her first clue was "Wait, this guy is pleasing me sexually. Well, he certainly didn't learn how to do that from me"

At least he didn't come back with Monkeypox.

Looking forward to the next edition.

Her little moment in the sun, with all the right Tick-Toc Ticky-Tacky poses, outfits, backdrops, and facial expressions. What else are you a pro at, hon? Just askin'

How do I love you, let me count the lays.

Come on, BambinX, why so strict? Other socially forward masculinists have two, three, even underage friends with benefits on couches, in closets, on layaway. I only want you, and her, too.

Nevertheless, he insisted.

"John Mulaney on The New York Post..."

Ha ha.

Just got around to clicking on this.

How right he was: In the eyes of the NYT Post, "a bozo is any man who cheats on his wife."
