Delusional Hotness Syndrome

Listening to the NPR show, "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me," on the way home from the cabin last week, we were treated to an hour of laugh-out-loud schtick. The most humorous comments revolved around a new syndrome "Delusional Hotness Syndrome."

Resulting from a dearth of eligible men in the forty to fifty age-group, men are apparently being deluded about their sex appeal. In that age group, because there are more women than men, men are thinking they are much more sexy than they really are. You know who he is . . . balding, forty-ish, big gut dressed in a tank top and shorts, strutting up the street like a peacock.

We have all seen that guy . . . I just didn't know there was a name for his obnoxious behavior!
