mid-week randoms
It’s been a long time, I know. Perhaps I should start calling these “mid-year randoms”. I apologize to those who do visit and see nothing new posted. – Things are kaput with Scott, as of awhile now. We wound up hanging out one more time after the last post. I had a bit of a …
i’m still alive….
But just barely. I know I’ve been neglecting this blog. Work has just been kicking me in the ass last week and will continue to do so this week. I got saddled with an enormous project that is in response to another department’s screw up. Yes, please, let me help fix what you fucked up! …
first meeting delayed
So, Mr. Runner has had to postpone our first meeting. He is being sent to the UAE last minute on Friday for work and had to bag tonight’s plans. I’m inclined to believe him, as he’s been really nice so far and just giving him the benefit of the doubt that he’s telling the truth. …
first post of 2013
Happy New Year! Is that old yet? Yes? OK, sorry. I know I’ve been lax about posting, but really for a while there was nothing worth writing about. I didn’t really want to talk about horrible stuff going on around the world. My Christmas in Florida was relatively uneventful, though quite lovely. My New Year’s …
say what?
Here’s another sampling of messages I’ve gotten. My comments in green. “its nice to see you here lets start with a hello, so we can be friends. what is your name? i really would like to know more about you. hope to hear from you. What do you do during weekends? and what would you …
dead in the water
Some of you may have been wondering what happened with the OKC guy I was conversing with that showed potential. Or you may not have. Here’s where that stands…nowhere. I lost interest after we spoke on the phone. We talked for an hour. The conversation flowed. It was a fine conversation. But there were some …
it started with someone’s okcupid experiment
Recently, a guy conducted an experiment. In short, this guy put up a fake profile pretending to be a very pretty 23-year old. He wanted to see how many men would still try to date her even when she came across as completely bat-shit-crazy in her written profile and during communication. You may have read …
punctuation optional (apparently)
Here are some more of those awesome generic emails: “Hi there, how r u” (YAWN) “You re looking good, i would like to be your lovely friend.” (He’d like to be my lovely friend…no, no, no, no, no.) “Hello baby …. Love your eyes … Want meet you” (Do not call me baby, you …
wtf dating profile #1, part 3
And for the grand finale. This is copied/pasted exactly how it appears online. All disjointed. All over the place. No edits, except where I’ve added my commentary in green. Warning, it is profanity laced. I just couldn’t help it. The myth of multitasking has spread to finding a mate. Reading while sitting in front your …
wtf dating profile #1, part 2
Here’s some more of the cray-cray behind curtain #1. Best part is that he issues a warning against TROLLS! I’m sorry, but when you start putting out shit like this, you are most definitely “feeding trolls” and you have to expect backlash. This isn’t even the worst of it. That’s yet to come… My …
