NWR: Would You Have Dumped Him?
My friend Steve posted this on MySpace. It's excruciating to listen to
I actually feel bad for the guy.
Allow me to present . . . Troy's Mix Tape of Loooooove:
----------------------------------------------------------------
This is the original tape Troy made to his girlfriend Melissa on their 6 month anniversary. She left him 3 days after.

Below is a brief history of the tape:
Troy, perhaps the most pathetic victim of a dumping in this country's recent history. First unearthed by XM Satellite Radio's popular comedy program The Opie and Anthony Show, Troy did something that many attempt and few (if any) find success with...he made a declaration for his sweetheart on audio cassette as a present to commemorate their six-month anniversary. This is admittedly a very sweet gesture to his girlfriend, a unique token to show how much he loves her. The only problem was that his girlfriend didn't quite reciprocate Troy's emotions. She broke up with him three days after receiving the tape, leaving Troy in absolute shambles. To make matters worse (for Troy, but better for us), she took his recorded love mix and posted it on the World Wide Web for all to enjoy.
This is quite honestly one of the most uncomfortable pieces of audio I've ever listened to. Maybe it's because the guy comes off sounding so ridiculous given what you know about life after he delivered his audio gift. Or maybe it's because everyone has loved someone with the same intensity and excitement that Troy obviously feels for this girl, so you squirm from the embarrassing recognition of your own experiences in his recording. Granted, most people don't get this nuts over a girl, but the kid is only in high school and those relationships are admittedly unstable at best.
This is not going to be an easy listen, but it is well worth the few minutes it takes to get through it. And even though this recording of Troy's crazy love will undoubtedly make you cringe, I guarantee you will pass it along to somebody else. So, enjoy this little piece of audio magic and remember...don't ever, ever make a tape like this, no matter how good you think things are going with your significant other. You just might wind up being the next Troy.
That is all.
