The 5 Chick Flicks Your Girlfriend Will Try To Get You To See This Year (And How To Avoid Them)

February 2nd, 2009 by NextRound in Movies

The key to avoiding the loss of two to three hours of your life that you’ll never get back to a romantic comedy is being prepared to hit your girlfriend/wife/lady-on-the-side with a response that will guarantee she never brings up the movie again. This is not the time for subtlety. Here’s what we recommend…

For He’s Just Not That Into You: “I own a midget porno with the same title. Kevin Connolly isn’t in that one though.”

For Confessions of a Shopaholic: “I don’t feel comfortable seeing a movie that glorifies materialism when my (insert family member here) and (insert buddy from college here) just got laid off.”

For Ghosts of Girlfriends Past: “Every time I see Matthew McConaughey shirtless on screen I spend a week trying to determine if I’m gay or not.”

For The Ugly Truth: “The ugly truth is until you start finding me cheating on you attractive I’m not going to see any more movies where the habitual womanizer gets the girl.”
