So by girlfriends you mean, Ned Beatey and Burt Reynolds, and by social life you mean, "squeal like a pig." Because, if you are saying that I have a purdy mouth, then that makes you the Toothless Man from Deliverance. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Dissection Fallacy or "Fibonacci Bamboozlement":

"A dissection fallacy is an apparent paradox arising when two plane figures with different areas seem to be composed by the same finite set of parts. In order to produce this illusion, the pieces have to be cut and reassembled so skillfully, that the missing or exceeding area is hidden by tiny, negligible imperfections of shape."
