And then there she is saying "I learned the truth at seventeen ..." so obviously she's older now and she still doesn't get that at 17 you know NUFFINK and think you know it all and wah wah wah. O h m y G A W D, I wish, how I wish I'd not been prompted to remember that song. Cheeeeeeeeeeeezuss. H. Christ.
Thanks guys.

Her meaning now was clear to see.
The love she'd waited for was someone else not me
Wouldn't you know it, she wouldn't show it.


Why the fuck was her diary underneath a tree? Was she homeless? Is the image supposed to invoke a fairyland where people floated around and wrote diaries in tree-dotted meadows, with butterflies and rainbows, where happy little bunnies hopped around bringing ribbons of gold?

They were going to call it "She's just not that into you" but they weren't sure that had lasting value, like diaries under trees.
OMG I'm laughing so hard right now. That is a close friend's most loathed songs ever, btw. She'd be laughing her butt off, too, if she read this post. I may have to send it to her!

Send away. My humor is meant for the masses, beyond the Cellar. I'm waiting to be discovered.

Bwahahaha! If I hadn't been instructed to read the entire thread before posting, I would have posted the same song as infinite monkey. Jill is right that I hate that song! She knows me too well.
