Curb Your Enthusiasm - The Unfair Standards of a Jay Z/ Beyonce Meme

Heauxs be trolling.  So maybe that's a bit harsh, but it has to be said:  That meme is the worst possible way to express your desire for a relationship.  Why?  Because you probably can't sing, and he probably can't rap for starters.  Do you understand just how good Jay Z is at rap?  Do you?  HAVE YOU HEARD REASONABLE DOUBT?  Take a second here to listen to Hov at his very, very best.



So yeah, chances are the person you crush on, date, have a kid with, whatever, isn't going to meet those standards, because that bar is REALLY, REALLY HIGH.  And that's just from an artistic standpoint.  The amount of sacrifice, dedication, and star alignment it took to get Jay Z to this level  would at least require, I dunno, if Reasonable Doubt came out in 1996, and "Crazy is Love" came out in 2003, that means it's going to take at least another 7 years before a person can go into a relationship in Jay's mindset.
Chances are, you already have a relationship like this.
 Also, the other half of this equation is Beyonce, the world killer.  Beyonce, with the golden voice and bronzed, chiseled body.  You could make the claim that she's in the very top percentile of Women, if you use things like, I dunno, beauty, talent and dedication to your craft.  She runs the world man.  SHE CAN GO BY ONE NAME.  SHE'S SO INCREDIBLY POPULAR, YOU FORGET HOW HOOD HER NAME IS.  So having to be the Beyonce in this comparison, you are essentially saying you are an eternally sought after, and until recently unattainable and you want to be appreciated as such.
If you want that, BE THIS!
With all that said, the crux of these memes are the are usually the two of them doing regular stuff, like sitting court side at NBA games.  COURT SIDE.  Costs more than you make in a month, but hat's what you want.  Really?  Take a second to think about the last time your boyfriend invited you to a sporting event, and you opted to stay home.  Beyonce doesn't stay home.  She's at the game, next to her Husband!  I can think of so many instances when I'm out with the guys, and when one of them gets asked where his girl is, he says "she didn't feel like coming out."  But you want to be HAPPY like them. 
Lowered Expectations - not just a MADTV sketch.
No one is familiar with their conversations, whatever fights they have, and what irritates them about one another.  They just look amazingly happy in the pictures together.  Doing rich stuff cuz they are both wealthy.  It's more realistic to want... I dunno... Flav and Brigitte's relationship - you'd just need drugs and a camera.  And a viking hat.  All of which you can probably locate in a 10 mile radius from where you're reading this.
