"Get the Guy: Kids Talk Dating Problems" is becoming a viral video with more than half a million views in a couple of days.
Is it side-splitting schtick or screwball strangeness? Maybe the idea just silly. Possibly it’s truly sick. Or perhaps
it’s a sign of the times.
“I just don’t get it,” a little girl says. “Yesterday, he
picked me twice in ‘Duck-Duck-Goose.’ Today, when we were coloring, he wouldn’t
even look at me.”
“Maggie,” counters her seemingly sophisticated classmate, “You
are a beautiful, strong-willed, independent girl. And if Johnny doesn’t see
that, it’s his loss.”
Is this first grade
or freshman study hall?
The video appears to be a promotion for an upcoming dating
book by Matthew Hussey, billed
online as a life coach and strategist. Hussey is the author of Get the Guy: Learn Secrets of the Male Mind to Find the Man You
Want and the Love You Deserve. The 272-page how-to book, published by
HarperWave, is scheduled for an April 9, 2013, release in hardcover and Kindle
editions.
Hussey appears as the television matchmaker on NBC’s new
dating and love connection series, “Ready for Love.”
Of course, this two-minute video may have parents arguing
that early elementary school students are most certainly not ready for love, as
the video suggests in a stab at humor.
Take a look at “Get
the Guy: Kids Talk Dating Problems,” posted on YouTube on March 26 by Matthew
Hussey.

ReplyDeleteAs I was saying, cute AND creepy, obviously scripted, but still funny.
