I just came across this on Gawker. When I originally started this blog I wanted to help people not suck at life. This guy is the epitome of sucking at life — regardless of your accomplishments, they can all disappear the second you open your mouth if you’re like this guy.
Hey, remember that wannabe i-banker douchebag Alexsey Vayner and his insanely braggy resume video? Do you recall Eric Schaeffer, the failed writer/director who hates women and blogs about how he can’t believe he’s still single? Well, what if they met and married and through some breakthrough in medical science had a baby? He would probably grow up to be something along the lines of Atlanta’s John Fitzgerald Page, who in addition to working in corporate finance, being a part-time trainer, and being available for work as a “costumed character” or a “stand-in,” also somehow finds the time in his day to be a colossal, mindbogglingly douchey douchebag to girls he meets on Match.com!
We are given to understand (hey, who makes this kind of shit up?) that the following email correspondence took place between John and some lady. “So I winked at this guy on Match. Should have known better considering his screen name was “IvyLeagueAlum.” He responds with the following email…
I live in a 31 story high rise condominium, right in the middle of the Buckhead nightlife district. Do you ever come to this area of town to shop/go out/visit/explore?
I went to an Ivy League school - the University of Pennsylvania - for my undergraduate degree in economics and my graduate degree in management (Wharton School of Business). Where did you go to school?
What activities do you currently participate in to stay in shape? I work out 4 times a week at LA Fitness. Do you exercise regularly? I am 6 feet tall, 185 pounds - what about yourself? I am truly sorry if that sounds rude, impolite or even downright crass, but I have been deceived before by inaccurate representations so I prefer someone be upfront and honest on initial contact…
I do mergers & acquisitions (corporate finance) for Limited Brands (Bath & Body Works, Victoria’s Secret, etc). Enjoy any of our stores/divisions?
Do you have any other recent pictures you care to share? I have many others if you care to see them.
Regards,
John

“So,” the lady writes, “I in turn send him a polite “No Thanks” thru the Match system which sends him the following email: ‘Thanks for writing to me, but unfortunately, we’re just not a good match. Good luck in your search! Our Portraits didn’t match on: A. Personality’” A spurned and brokenhearted John wrote back, less robotically but no less douchily.
I think you forgot how this works. You hit on me, and therefore have to impress ME and pass MY criteria and standards - not vice versa. 6 pictures of just your head and your inability to answer a simple question lets me know one thing. You are not in shape. I am a trainer on the side, in fact, I am heading to the gym in 26 minutes!
So next time you meet a guy of my caliber, instead of trying to turn it around, just get to the gym! I will even give you one free training session, so you don’t blow it with the next 8.9 on Hot or Not, Ivy League grad, Mensa member, can bench/squat/leg press over 1200 lbs., has had lunch with the secretary of defense, has an MBA from the top school in the country, lives in a Buckhead high rise, drives a Beemer convertible, has been in 14 major motion pictures, was in Jezebel’s Best dressed, etc. Oh, that is right, there aren’t any more of those!
Regards,
John
There … aren’t? Are you absolutely sure? We’re still hiding, just in case.
In case you’re wondering what he looks like:

“8.9 on Hot or Not”? In what country? On whose imaginary TLD? Dating gods, please protect us from pompous, douchey assbites suffering from too much unjustifed self-adoration! (I notice even his hair doesn’t like him; it’s racing away from his face.) I almost wanna go out with him just so I can vomit onto those hideous two-tone slip-ons.

Ooooh, you missed his fabulous modeling career:

I think that is mister uber fitness himself in the Red Trunks. My, my what mighty biceps. I’m sure there is a six pack under that tummy flab somewhere.
Congrats to him landing that ad for that local Holiday Inn franchise! Truly a high end ad created with only the very best talent. While it looks like he and his fellow models were recruited at a local donut shop but I’m sure I must be mistaken since he has been in 16 Major Motion Pictures, er, if you can spot him in the background…

Mensa? Really?

No, not really. His name isn’t in Mensa’s global directory. One of what I’m sure are many lies he tells to boost his ego.
