Cook Teasing
This anonymous angry poster in The Gilded Moose wasn't my boyfriend, I swear, although I understand some masculine egos are being threatened by a guy who charts the Top of Sexy Rankings and can cook!, it's like an offense to the average male who is useless at kitchen and only sexy in Saturday night when playoff is over.
Jake Gyllenhaal says the way to a woman's heart is to cook her a romantic dinner and as alternative: "If I could impress her with a striptease, I would." Source
Well, in the case he chooses Plan B, he can take notes down in his agendum from these gals about hotdogs and strippers:

The bad review girl
I'm proud of a new local TV station working in Aragon (Spain) where my brother and his girl live and work, so they could watch "The Good Girl" last Monday 18 September, and they loved it (probably she loved it more than my brother, because he doesn't like Jennifer Aniston too much but I've initiated her in the Jake). Aragonese people dig Jake Gyllenhaal in excessive quantities, too. I've been reading a negative review towards the film by Lisa Schwarzbaum (Entertainment Weekly) and I'll explain why I disagree with her:
"Bored with her marriage to a lunkish, pothead, housepainter husband (John C. Reilly), Justine falls briefly for a sensitive but disturbed younger fellow employee (Jake Gyllenhaal, specialist in Holden Caulfield types), and the likable Aniston walks the part with a carefully practiced shuffle of despair. She speaks with a carefully practiced twang."
Come on, it's practically impossible falling briefly for someone as Jake/Holden.
"'I saw in your eyes that you hate the world. I hate it too'' one Retail Rodeo loser tells another, although anyone with the ability to articulate such observations clearly has more resources for success than this movie has use for. ''The Good Girl'' only pretends to care about good people who sometimes do bad things. In fact, it hasn't got time for the pain."
Well, I'm afraid many people, maybe too many, have the ability to articulate incredible smart observations about life while they are victimised brutally by society's repressor forces. And almost every script line is full of ad-lib humdrum painful or funny comments in a natural, non contrived way.

Jake as Harold after festival
Hope Davis as Catherine's estranged sister, Gwyneth Paltrow as Catherine and Jake Gyllenhaal as Harold Dobbs in "Proof".
Catherine: Harold Dobbs exists.
Claire: I'm sure he does.
Catherine: He's a mathematician at the University of Chicago. Call the freaking math department.
Claire: Do you wanna stay in Chicago?
Catherine: I don't know.
Claire: Chicago is dead. New York is so much more fun.
If you scroll down to the bottom of this previous post you can download "Via Chicago" song live by Wilco.
Musically I am not much into John Mayer, but as he recently was in Jake's orbit and "rollingstoned", for the fans here is his last record: "Continuum" (2006) and as dessert, a "Little Miss Sunshine" review by Strange Culture and "Little Miss Sunshine" soundtrack.
Take your Jake's lover test

I fell for the drummer
Jake, the hot maths teacher drummer wannabe.
A crazy Muppet drummer and...
Glenn Kotche, the fascinating Wilco's drummer.
"HEAVY METAL DRUMMER"
"I sincerely miss those heavy metal bands
I used to go see on the landing in the summer
She fell in love with the drummer
She fell in love with the drummer
She fell in love
Shiny, shiny pants and bleach-blond hair
A double kick drum by the river in the summer
She fell in love with the drummer
Another and another
She fell in love
I miss the innocence I've known
Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned
Unlock my body and move myself to dance
Moving warm liquid, flowing blowing glass
Classical music blasting masks the ringing in my ears
I sincerely miss those heavy metal bands
I used to go see on the landing in the summer
She fell in love with the drummer
She fell in love with another
She fell in love
I miss the innocence I've known
Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned
Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned
Playing KISS covers, beautiful and stoned" (by Wilco)
