a cruelly hilarious peek into the world of teenage break-ups. The Dumpster, an “interactive online visualization that attempts to depict a slice of the romantic lives of American teenagers,” used real postings from millions of online blogs and interactive graphical tools to guide viewers through over 20,000 “tumultuous” break-ups from back in 2005. The result was a darkly laughable portrait of the similarities, differences, and patterns innate to failed adolescent relationships that, however immaturely communicated, we could probably all stand to learn a few things from. For those of you still stuck in office cubicles, here are some angsty pulled quotes to help you keep your chin up through quitting time:
“Larchie thinks Bad Religion is better than Fugazi, so I broke up with her. Then she played Sublime.”
“today really sucked i wanna die my parents hate me omg waaa waaa waaaa i cut myself the prozac doesnt work my bf broke up with me and i got stuffed into a locker”
“Click here to view my new Dance Dance Revolution video. This is what I do on Saturday nights since Niki and I broke up.”
