No, seriously. Did you piss someone off needlessly? Cut someone off in traffic? Shortchange the waitress? Generally pee in somebody’s Cheerios today? Well, feel guilty no more… unless it’s the sweet sort that comes from the guilty pleasure of smug superiority.

I have to confess that every so often, a really horrible, trashy VH1 show is all too easy to surrender to. And, tonight, after a long day, I was weak. I don’t think I was a jerk today, per se, but I was tired and grouchy and my defenses were not at an all time high, so when a friend sent me this link…oh boy. I let myself go and stared at the trainwreck that is…Tool Academy, where guys who believe themselves to be God’s gift to women thought they were coming to compete for the chance to be crowned “Mr. Awesome,” actually discover that their pitiful, doormat, no-self-esteem-having girlfriends have submitted them as the biggest tool alive. Granted, I’m sure these idiots were told to play it up, but…Lord God.

So, anyway.

No matter HOW much of a jerk you were today? You’re doing okay…because aside from everything else? You didn’t whore yourself out and show the entire world what an ass you are. Watch the clip. Seriously. You will feel SO much better about yourself, your significant other, and life in general. I promise that it’s worth sacrificing the several hundred brain cells it’ll kill.
