Random Rants

Exposition on online dating sites – part 2

I want to pick up the rant from where I left off last time. Sorry, but you’re the one here reading it. You must love being tortured. You sick perv!

NOT DEAF, JUST PLAIN DUMB – There are some people out there who just don’t want to put their information out there for because there might be unsavory people who might drool over. I’ll call them wallflowers. In order for the websites to generate a lot of traffic and hence possibly make money with people signing, they have to have a lot of profiles. To do this, they require that you join for free before they let you start drooling with certain restrictions. No email. And no chatting. It’s understandable that the wallflowers want to stay anonymous. So wallflowers compromise by filling out the minimal amount of information, so that they can actively drool over other people’s profiles. This annoys me. Not the part where they drool over other people. I’d be hypocritical to denounce it. What annoys me is that other people will waste their time looking at this profile with nothing on it but the barest of information provided.

GOLDDIGGING IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR HOME – Another annoyance. You’re probably less than shocked. Some sites will ask for your income level. Nothing wrong with that. Here’s where the golddiggers will show themselves. They will not list their income level, yet will have settings that indicate you’re not a match for them because you didn’t list yours. Could you scream, “I love money and NOT you!” any louder?

Anyway, to entertain you after putting you through my rant, I’ll list some fairly funny and cool responses to questions on the mentioned dating sites. These are the kind of girls I like. Be aware that these quotes are not all from the same girl. Enjoy.

RESPONSES TO “BEST OR WORST LIE”

    That I liked George Bush. It was a moment of nonconfrontational weakness
    bluffingly said, ‘oh yeah? then why don’t you just fire me?’ and i was.

RESPONSE TO “WHY YOU SHOULD GET TO KNOW ME”

    I’m really smart. No lie. I know how snotty that sounds, but I like to talk about a lot of things so my intelligence is really just a bonus for you. See? I’m not self-centered; I’m selfless . . . Right? I’ll talk your ear off about music, but then I’ll sing for you. I’m just as comfortable having a drink in a bar as I am barefoot and sitting in the grass. I’m a rock-star in the making; you wanna get in on the ground floor dontcha? I’m multi-faceted, but don’t worry; all the facets are pretty fuckin’ cool.

RESPONSE TO “IF I COULD BE ANYWHERE AT THE MOMENT”

    I’d be in Nacogdoches. There, I said it; someone had to. Oh! Or Canada. You know, ’cause of the healthcare and the low gun-related homicide rate. Duh.
