Defamer
When news that Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer got together for a "touchy, feely" lunch date and dinner in Miami over the weekend broke, the entire community of celebrity observers and glossy magazine readers let out a big ol' collective yawn. Aniston has been linked to (and we're roughly estimating here) seven hundred or so possible paramours since her split with Brad Pitt, and Mayer has pulled what Liz Phair would call the all-too-common "fuck and run" on so many starlets that he earned Us's "Cad of the Year" award. But just because the gossip is yawnworthy doesn't mean there isn't a larger issue here: mainly, is Aniston really dating or trying to date all these guys-of-the-month, or is this charade her publicist's idea of spinning her post-divorce life into an unglamorous version of Sex And The City?
Regarding the Aniston/Mayer date in question, an OK! source described the pair as "very close and in deep conversation," while a pervier onlooker told Us, "they were very affectionate, definitely touchy, feely." Which is yucky, considering Mayer most recently touched and felt The Blogger Whose Name We Do Not Mention. But more importantly, Jen has been rumored to go on dates and flirt with co-stars Aaron Eckhart, Owen Wilson and, last we heard, Orlando Bloom. None of these rumors have ever gone the way of a Reese/Jake trajectory from "yeah, right" to one year relationship and still chugging along. How are we to interpret her behavior? Is she proving single women can date around and just have fun without worrying about that whole "settling down" thing? Or is this a PR-conceived strategy to make sure the public knows she's still a very wanted woman, and far from the teary mess Vanity Fair memorably cast her as just after her divorce? Lastly, should we just put a ban on any and all Jennifer Aniston Is Dating So-And-So stories in the future?

All I know is, every single girl in L.A. should have her matchmaking connections. T'aint fair, I tell you!
Someone needs to nail her soon so we can stop hearing about it.
The press really has turned her into the Escher print of dating. I'm sure somewhere out there, there's a photo of Aaron Eckhart escorting her down the aisle to meet Brad... then they all turn into black and white birds.
Wait, you mean Rachel was married to that dude with all the kids and the UN ambassador girlfriend? Whoa.
Yeah... But how's Jen doing?
@D Day: Yes, that's the second part of the print. The black and white birds turn into the technicolored opening to The Partridge Family, which then turns into Jolie walking with her kids from a convenience store. It's bound to wind up in the new Broad wing of the LA County Museum.
I smell a contrived romance to combat those bi rumours started by the BWNWDNM.
@TurdBlossom: yes
