Sensitive

John Mayer has decided to stop using his blog for douchebaggery and instead to impart some of his profound wisdom and sensitivity on the world, with a new entry titled "From the Heart..." Here's a snippet:

What I'm about to write isn't about fame or success or celebrity or the media. That's my business. This is about us all. This is about a level of self consciousness so high in my generation, that it's actually toxic.

This is about the girl in her bedroom who poses in front of the camera she's awkwardly holding in her outstretched hand. She'll take a hundred photos until coming up with one she's happy with, which inevitably looks nothing like her, and after she's done poring over images of herself, will post one on her myspace page and then write something like " I don't give a f*ck what you think about me."

Well, I think we all know who that girl is, and her name is John Mayer. And I think John Mayer really does "give a f*ck" what we think about her, doesn't she John? So when she takes all these photos, but the one she's happy with looks "nothing like her" -- maybe what you're really saying is that behind this douchey "facade," if you will, is just a scared, sensitive little girl who only wants to be loved?

Yeah, I took introductory psych in college, so I'm pretty much an expert when it comes to these kind of things.

John Mayer is a fool, nobody uses myspace anymore.

Honestly, your disdain for John Mayer makes you look kind of foolish. I love everything else on your site, but I don't know anyone who doesn't think his blog is hilarious (and absolutely 100% tongue in cheek).

You don't me. But I don't find it hilarious. Not even a little.
