Take Him, Please

AS SEEN IN TODAY'S METRO:

Tonight the District Lounge in Boston is hosting a Yankee Swap Your Ex Party for split-up couples. If you have an ex who you're still friends with, you can go together and hopefully swap each other out for other people's exes.

The wonderful audacity of this amuses me greatly. I have an ex who I'm still friends with, but unfortunately he's neither local nor available. Too bad -- this would be jolly fun, in a vaguely just-shoot-me kind of way.

I've heard about this for years. It's just another variation on the "bring an eligible MOTAS" party, which I think is a fun idea and have pondered throwing. Presumably one can vouch at a... deeper level for an ex than for a friend. :)

It's a pretty cool idea, really. :-)
