i say it`s just for kicks.

There’s this thing about Lloyd Dobler that lives on even after a decade-and-a-half, and there hasn’t been a match for him yet (except for most of the other characters John Cusack has played).

Here is a new Lloyd Dobler article. I couldn’t resist. Would youpick Jake Ryan or Lloyd Dobler? Well, Jake has much better hair, duh. And he’ll remember your birthday. But Lloyd… he’s the underdog you have to have.

Make Llyod Dobler your Valentine, every time. There’s no harm in that. Unless you find a real one… then I’m going to beat you up and steal him from you.

Billy could be Lloyd, but Billy’s not. The character of Lloyd Dobler ruined men forever, and still does so. Men can’t compare to that. If they wanted to, they’d probably be just as fictional, also. And that breaks women’s hearts all the time. They should send all men to a Lloyd Dobler bootcamp, where they’ll learn to write cute cards and help you avoid piles of glass in front of 7-11s. If men were like that, they’d get laid.
