“Usually, on the rare occasion that I get persuaded to give dating a try, I focus in on the minutiae of everything that is wrong with the guy. Maybe they have ugly hands, or sniff too much, or have one crooked tooth. Maybe he mentions a book I find pretentious or takes too long to choose what beer he wants. Bad facial hair, a high-pitched laugh, rests his hand on my leg, likes rugby too much, likes me too much, boastful, shy, boring, annoying, too earnest, too cocky, wearing a quirky jumper, V-neck t-shirt, bad glasses, or novelty socks. Tells a Jimmy Carr joke, has nails that are too perfect, works in marketing at a finance company and thinks they count as a ‘creative’. Has no opinion or too forceful an opinion. Texts to say they are running late but spells it, ‘L8’. Any of the above can be enough to send me running for the hills.”

“Entering Dave's house is also easy, because Dave is stupid and unimaginative, something I had my fingers crossed for the first time I moved the flowerpot by the back door. A house key left right by the door – it's basically natural selection.”
Eve Kellman, How to Kill a Guy in Ten Ways
“The idea of a tell-all confessional tape being released days after my death that shocks everyone to their grey, middle-class core is appealing to me, Gauche, I know, but fame, notoriety, and a certain f&$*-you-all glamour is right up my street, even if I'm not around to see it.”
