I came home yesterday and found a mix CD lying on my laptop, with "Boys Suck" written on it. I was skeptical, since my musical taste tends to differ pretty significantly with my roommates (with the possible exceptions of Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato and Sinead O'Connor). However, upon listening I realized that every song was absolutely perfect.
Without further adieu, the track list, with lyrical excerpts:
1.)A Toast to Men- Willa Ford
"Fuck the men, let's drink to us." 'Nuff said.
2.)The Hardest Part of Breaking Up- 2gether
"It's been so long since I've seen your face/so long since I've been to first base/I really miss the feel of your kiss/but can I have back my things before I get really pissed?" Seriously, I need my winter coat, and it's in Brian's car. F!!
3.)Single Ladies- Beyonce
"I need no permission, did I mention/don't pay him any attention/'cause you had your turn, and now you're gonna learn/what it really feels like to miss me."
4.)40 Boys in 40 Nights- The Donnas
"Have some now, save some for later/but there's no cute boys in Decatur." A noble quest.
5.)Breakin' Up- Rilo Kiley
"It's not as if New York City burnt down to the ground once you drove away."
6.)You Don't Own Me- Lesley Gore
"You don't own me, don't try to change me in any way/you don't own me, don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay." Okay, well I did stay for three years. Still.
7.)So What- P!NK
"Tonight, I'm alright, I'm just fine, and you're a tool so/so what, I'm still a rock star." Perf!
8.)L.O.V.E.- Ashlee Simpson
"My boyfriend, he'll be callin' me now anytime/ I need all my girls to keep him off my mind."
9.)Ur So Gay-Katy Perry
"You walk around like you're oh so debonair/ you pull 'em down and there's really nothing there."
10.)I'm Not Crying For You- Save Ferris
"Making empty promises is all you do/ you say that you will change, but it's just not true."
11.)These Boots Are Made For Walkin'- Nancy Sinatra
"And that's just what they'll do."
12.)Delayed Devotion- Duffy
"Your words come much too late/ my love for you has turned to hate/ 'cause you've taken too much time/ to show me that you're mine." I LOVE DUFFY.
13.)End It On This- Gwen Stefani
"You see, it's hard to face/ the addict that's inside of me/ I want to fill my glass up/with you constantly."
14.)I Bet It Stung- Tegan & Sara
"Don't get so uptight/don't get so uptight/go, go away."
15.)I can't figure out what this song is called or who it's by, but it's beautiful.
"Why did I refuse to listen when I heard the early warning? I kept flying right around the bend/'cause I would never see you again."
The Duffy song is really my favorite. I mean, I can jam out to all of it, but I have been in love with her voice since I first heard it and Delayed Devotion is just the perfect song for what's going on with me now.

yay! I hadn't read this one. I feel so honored that you like my mix!
I don't suppose you ever figured out the source on song 15? I've been looking around for it (typing the lyrics into my google search is what brought your page up).
