Bait-and-Switch
There’s nothing I hate more than the bait-and-switch. You know what I’m talking about—when you’re expecting one thing, and then given another. For example, today I was supposed to join my parents for a movie. While on my way to the theater, I get a call from my mother telling me there’s been a change in plans and asking me to come to their house. Instead of a movie day, I get a day of moving furniture and steam cleaning couches. Bait-and-switch.
The bait-and-switch is worst in the dating world. Nothing sucks more than when you think you’re going out for a romantic evening and instead you find that you’re hanging out with a group of friends. Actually there is something worse—when you are interested in someone, and they seem interested back, and then they try to set you up with their friend. Bait-and-switch.
So this is my explanation of why you’re getting a rant instead of a movie review. I didn’t get to the movies this weekend. I got a few DVDs, but haven’t had a chance to watch any of them since I was too busy doing manual labour. So, no movie review—just me bitching.

No shit. My GF did the same thing to me yesterday. She told me that we were going to go to the Cingular store and then Macy's it turns out she wanted to go to Glendale mall as well as look at some open houses (She told me that shit when I got in the car) 1 open house turned into two. Then she had to go to church. Since her sould needs to be saved, I thought that was a good idea. She wanted me to go with her. Hell no, God hates me, everyone knows that. The good news is I didn't have to go to the Mall. It is like thinking you are getting laid instead you get a root canal.
