As This Slideshow Will Demonstrate, It’s Go Time

Like we showed last week, everything’s better when presented in Powerpoint. Last week it was how much that girlfriend sucked, but this week it’s why it’s time for the author and her audience to do it like they do on the Discovery Channel.

    The difference is that this powerpoint is at least moderately amusing.

  2. Max says:

    You had me at “i’m a girl too” ;)

  3. Wisje says:

    Challange Accepted

  4. Kim says:

    Augh, now I KNOW my head is too much in my work right now… all I could think (when I got to the fourth slide) was “Aren’t bullet points supposed to be for separate items on a list, not for the author’s responses to arguably rhetorical questions..?”

  5. YS says:

    I find this powerpoint 73% convincing and 65% funny, with 25% overlap that is classified as “convincingly funny” and a 13% overlap classified as “humorously convincing”.

  6. Dam says:

    Assuming that the pie chart speaks the truth and that the powerpoint creator is in fact a girl (and perhaps not a hobo), I would definitely be persuaded by said powerpoint.

  7. Saturday Sportsman says:

    Usually “I’m a girl” is all it takes.

  8. Demarko says:

    I am, however, forced to question the validity of the celebrity endorsement.

    • Jeremiah K Garrett says:

      Mark Trwain may not be a celebrity, but he’s still a popular author. I think his endorsment could be considered valid.

      • Ryan Waxx says:

        Yeah, but you’d think that she could have bothered to get an endorsement from Abraham Lincoln while she was at it.

  9. coolbeens says:

    Secret Affairs rock, huh?

  10. Heidi says:

    Anyone else find this sad?

    • limabean says:

      I find it pretty sad…its like…you’re a girl. I’m a girl too, and its not exactly that difficult to find a nice guy, develop a relationship on some normal adult level, and then proceed to intimacy. This powerpoint not only sounds trashy and desperate but reeks of the possibility of being made by a guy.

      • PersonPerson says:

        It’s just not that easy for everyone, okay?

        :forever alone:

        • Also a girl says:

          They obviously haven’t been in a relationship long enough to see tension or loss of interest that may happen with long-term or married couples. At first the man is full of enthusiasm but over time, stress and age (many reasons) this can wane.
          Doesn’t make the woman trashy or sad. It’s a clever way to lighten the mood.

          If the relationship is new this is a great joke especially if the guy is a little shy or doubtful.

  11. Bear O. Ped says:

    Too old. ;-(

  12. heilkitty says:

    Girls creates a presentation in order to get laid.
    Seems legit.

  13. Jeremiah K Garrett says:

    You had me at “WHY WE SHOULD…”

  14. _dev_null says:

    What kind of world is this, where such powerpoints are created? This is neither real nor funny. What about good old love letters, written by hand etc. blahblah?

    • Jeremiah K Garrett says:

      Wrong, it’s funny. Read it as satire showing how stupid men are and how much control women have (should they choose to exercise it).

    • BunBun says:

      Just as a love letter is written to someone with their interests in mind, this was probably aimed at a specific person who would find this funny and appealing.

      Besides, love letters aren’t usually funny. Although now I feel the urge to write a raunchy sonnet. Luckily “let’s rub our naughty bits together” can easily be read in iambic pentameter.

  15. James Cook says:

    Well, that was a thing.

  16. Taran Alvein says:

    Man, this sucked marginally more than the last one. Either way, it wasn’t funny. I just hate this one more because it’s already become old-hat by the second iteration.

    • Shanenopolis says:

      I disagree, according to Monty Python’s rule of three, we have exactly one more iteration before it ceases to be funny.
      Also, I would totally date a chick that made something like this.

  17. Skittles says:

    I liked the whole Zoey Deschanel thing. It pretty well illustrates the idiot dudes in the friend zone. Which is to say if you set your sights on a realistic goal you might actually get laid. Although the pointing out that she won’t stalk you and murder your pets kind of makes me doubt. Also the no sex because of STDs and pregnancy would pretty much leave no chance for any guy to want to date her.

  18. Capt. Obvious says:

    A girl who has to ask for sex, obviously isn’t attractive.

  19. Franklin says:

    Pretty cool she was able to make this from the kitchen

  20. Also a girl says:

    I found this hilarious & clever.

    You’d be surprised. As a female I know there are men out there that would want to have sex with any female that has a heartbeat. But that’s not the point.

    While finding sex with ANY loser, sleazy guy is easy it’s not as easy to have sex with say a long term partner that works long hours and sex is the furthest from their mind or whatever barrier may be there. It’s not always easy and believe it or not there are men with lower sex drives than women.

    She could be a supermodel but if tension in relationship doesn’t matter. He may even think she’s not interested and this is an amusing way of dispelling his doubts. People want to be sure their advance is not rejected, doesn’t mean she is ugly.
    She is not interested in ANY horny man they are looking at a particular man.

    This slideshow could break the ice or any tension and fights stopping the couple from having sex.

    • just me says:

      Yep, this…
      I’m a guy. Been in a relationship with a girl that was really good looking, and wanted to have sex more, and she did too (possibly more than I did). Problem is, we were both so damn busy, and also, when we weren’t getting along (due to stress or whatever), sex didn’t happen. Pretty sure less sex than we wanted was part of the reason we broke up. Too bad, cause we were pretty damn good together for 3 years.

  21. Chris says:

    This serves to show that going after girls is a waste of time and nrg. If she’s interested in you, she’ll humiliate herself till she gets you.

    • Murpedo says:

      I logged in just to say that “nrg” is probably the stupidest Internet contraction I’ve seen to date. Well done!

      • Heil Syntax! says:

        Thank you.

      • Chris says:

        A contraction is a shortened form of one or two words (one of which is usually a verb). In a contraction, an apostrophe takes the place of the missing letter or letters. Some contractions are: I’m (I am), can’t (cannot), how’s (how is), and Ma’am (Madam).

        What you probably wanted to say was that NRG is the stupidest internet abbreviation you’ve seen to date. But would you really know the difference?
        I would have let it slide if you had said acronym, which it technically isn’t, but still not as wrong as calling it a contraction.

        Well done MurPedo :3

        • Jeremiah K Garrett says:

          I don’t know the meaning of nrg, but contractions are not required to have an apostrophe. Take Halloween for example. Technically it is a contraction from All Hallows Enening, shortened to Hallows E’en, then Haloween. It is still a contraction, even without the punctuation.

  22. SpookySadie says:

    I am female and I have gone to this sort of lengths to get noticed by my mate—- It is not that I am horrible looking or anything– it’s just my drive is higher than my husband’s

  23. Oscar says:

    I’m sold! Let’s have sexy things, Powerpoint Girl! :3

  24. OleJ says:

    Well, it has graphs, so I’m convinced.

  25. Randouken says:

    Who we are trying to fool here, we all payed attention to this post just because there’s a picture of Zoey Deschanel in it.

  26. toast says:

    Could somebody explain to me what powerpoint is?

  27. Jack Sparrow says:

    Her use of language and humor I associate with Ellen Page’s use of language and humor, most excellent.

  28. Mentos does truely make it better. says:

    Maybe this was girlfriend from “How much that girlfriend sucked” and she made a better argument.

  29. SP4MZ0R says:

    I AM 12 AND WHAT IS THIS!?

  30. it's me of course says:

    am i somehow the only person who noticed that this was obviously made with Keynote, not PowerPoint?
