So which one should I ask out?

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 16:54 (twenty years ago)

Well the first one is clealy Ned in drag so...

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Friday, 16 September 2005 16:57 (twenty years ago)

"Oh Heavens! :-)"

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 16:58 (twenty years ago)

The second guy has potential, I mean he looks fun and reassuringly portly.

Invite the fourth guy along just so you can batten down his hair with a cricket bat occasionally.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Friday, 16 September 2005 16:58 (twenty years ago)

I'm pretty sure all four of these jokers post on the Noise board, incidentally.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:00 (twenty years ago)

I like the fourth guy's Art Garfunkel vibe that he has going on.

― O'so Krispie (Ex Leon), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:00 (twenty years ago)

I think the second guy might be a former roommate from college. We were in a sea shanty acapella group together.

― Laura H. (laurah), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:01 (twenty years ago)

me and the 2nd guy could really get hot 'n' heavy at the ren fair, i bet

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:02 (twenty years ago)

I swear that looks so like Ned.

"Heavens ; ) This thong sure rides up!"

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:02 (twenty years ago)

Guy #4 has killed many men and would do so again, all for your love.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:03 (twenty years ago)

It looks just like him, for sure.

x-post

― O'so Krispie (Ex Leon), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:03 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, I'm a bit disconcerted about that first photo myself. Since it isn't me, but does rather look like me, clearly it is Kevin Shields in drag.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:09 (twenty years ago)

Are these local or worldwide?

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:16 (twenty years ago)

yeah, ask out the 2nd guy for gigantic turkey legs and mead.

"Oh dear. I seem to have lost my MANTIES!"

― Ned Raggett In Drag (Dan Perry), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:18 (twenty years ago)

I honestly thought that was Ned.

― Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:18 (twenty years ago)

MANDEE
Are these REALLY the dudes they are trying to set you up with?
This makes me sad.

― n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:18 (twenty years ago)

These are local dudes, Andrew

Nick - YES, THESE ARE REALLY MY MATCHES

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:22 (twenty years ago)

OMG, that last picture is me!!! Mandee, we have been matched by complex logarythms run by super-computers!!!

no, just kidding. I am on okcupid though. I occasionally get very attractive matches, though they always seem to be married or something.

― stewart downes (sdownes), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:23 (twenty years ago)

For some reason, Yahoo daily sends me my newest matches. Because my zip code is Oakland, they're always curvy 420 friendly homegirls with pierced fingernails.

― andy --, Friday, 16 September 2005 17:27 (twenty years ago)

MANDEE Why are they setting you up with LOSERZ instead of HUNKZ WHO LOOK LIKE RALPH MACCIO? Are they PREJUDICED?

― n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:32 (twenty years ago)

shit my blood pressure went through the roof when you said that, stewart downes

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:33 (twenty years ago)

maybe i am a nerd?? (??)

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:33 (twenty years ago)

Why are they PREJUDICED against NERDS?

― n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:35 (twenty years ago)

I have never even heard of OKCupid, and I have a girlfriend, but after this thread, I might sign up.

― PappaWheelie B.C., Friday, 16 September 2005 17:36 (twenty years ago)

Hahaha spot the subtle warning sign!

http://www.okcupid.com/profile?tuid=14674075597740859281

I am a better match that all these schmucks! I will marry you to save you from LARPG hell! (I won't move to Denver, though)

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:37 (twenty years ago)

sorry mandee, i am a jokr. I have become increasingly addicted to dating websites lately, even though I live in suburban wasteland and so the dating pool is not exactly spectacular. Well, I don't actually ever contact anyone, so I guess it doesn't really matter anyway.

― stewart downes (sdownes), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:40 (twenty years ago)

neither will nobody else, apparently. THIS TOWN IS FULLA DORKS>

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:41 (twenty years ago)

"This is the character I play in a live-action role-playing game. No, I'm not a furry."

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:44 (twenty years ago)

Because that would apparently be a deal-breaker for some.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:44 (twenty years ago)

circus of freaks:

a: a tranny
b: dodgy goth-metal dude
c: kinky rivethead
d: big hair nerd

mandeewright you need to change the inputs of your search

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:44 (twenty years ago)

Pierced fingernails?

― Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:45 (twenty years ago)

Town and surrounding woods, by the look of it.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:45 (twenty years ago)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OMG

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:46 (twenty years ago)

but I don't have inputs of my search!!! i did the "OKcupid.com test" or whatever and it just SELECTS who I should date!

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:46 (twenty years ago)

If you HAD to pick one which would you pick?

― , Friday, 16 September 2005 17:47 (twenty years ago)

Duh, Fey Ned.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:47 (twenty years ago)

― ~~~~ DODONGO DISLIKES SMOKE ~~~~ (ex machina), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:47 (twenty years ago)

I'd go for the big-haired serial killer i think

― , Friday, 16 September 2005 17:47 (twenty years ago)

Are you sure you're not at OKcomputer.com? I mean, look at this closely.

― PappaWheelie B.C., Friday, 16 September 2005 17:48 (twenty years ago)

Duh, Fey Ned.

I suppose I should be flattered. But am I? ;-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:48 (twenty years ago)

I think I'd choose the big-haired guy, too. Or fey Ned. OR THE SECOND GUY - OKAY SEE, I JUST CAN'T CHOOOOOOOOOSE

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:49 (twenty years ago)

That's okay. They look like broad-minded guys.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:50 (twenty years ago)

They are human and need to be loved.

― laurence kansas (lawrence kansas), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:51 (twenty years ago)

mandeewright you need to change your dating site then.

What about giving Yahoo Personals a whurl?

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:52 (twenty years ago)

I actually kind of like LEATHER DUDE the best. He has a dreeeaaaamy grin.

― n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:53 (twenty years ago)

you're not helping me stay 100% UNGOOGLEABLE, DJ MARTIN

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:53 (twenty years ago)

Do you think LEATHER DUDE would bring his wife-assistant on a date too? I can't help thinking he's a magician of some sort from that picture.

― Matt #2 (Matt #2), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:55 (twenty years ago)

Dude, he just typed what's already in your email address.

― n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:55 (twenty years ago)

I suppose it's a little late to congratulate Art Garfunkel and John Lennon on having a kid together.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:55 (twenty years ago)

Mandee if you cruised parks late at night you might do better than this.

― andy --, Friday, 16 September 2005 17:56 (twenty years ago)

sorry,

maybe this could throw up better matches, it's based on "tagging" your interests:

consumating - Hot nerdy girls and indie rock boys! With glasses!
http://www.consumating.com/
tagging dating system

probably Pirchork readers galore on this website

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:57 (twenty years ago)

typo...pitchfork readers

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Friday, 16 September 2005 17:58 (twenty years ago)

What is Consumating?

Consumating is a dating site for geeks, nerds, hipsters, and bloggers that uses tags. Tags let you describe yourself and identify your interests without having to fit into any rigid stereotype. You can search through the profiles by combining tags to create your perfect date, find people with similar interests, or just look at all the purty faces

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Friday, 16 September 2005 18:00 (twenty years ago)

i am not convinced thes are real. also, i am not convinced that they are all not ned at various stages in his development.

Tang does quench a thirst, no doubt.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Friday, 16 September 2005 18:32 (twenty years ago)

Mandee, if you are not boning that permed dude by the end of the year I will have to give SERIOUS reconsideration to your 'favourite twin' status.

― Ally C (Ally C), Friday, 16 September 2005 18:58 (twenty years ago)

Boning in this context mean pegging, right?

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 16 September 2005 19:06 (twenty years ago)

It will come back to you

― The Ghost of Steely Dan (Dan Perry), Friday, 16 September 2005 19:07 (twenty years ago)

I’ve seen your picture
Your name in lights above it
This is your big debut
It’s like a dream come true
And when you smile for the camera
I know they’re gonna love it

I like your pin shot
I keep it with your letter
Done up in blueprint blue
It sure looks good on you
So won’t you smile for the camera
I know I’ll love you better

Peg
It will come back to you
Peg
It will come back to you
Then the shutter falls
You see it all in 3-d
It’s your favorite foreign movie

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Friday, 16 September 2005 19:47 (twenty years ago)

B-but Mandee, they are your SOULMATES!

― Kittens Licking Cakes (coco), Friday, 16 September 2005 19:48 (twenty years ago)

I have more elegance than THAT.

i used to try to pierce my fingernails
and my neighbour looked like ralph macchio
he liked to wrestle
looking back now, it was kinda pervy, as he was like 14 and i was 9

― dahlin (dahlin), Friday, 16 September 2005 20:07 (twenty years ago)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 16 September 2005 20:55 (twenty years ago)

― Sundar (sundar), Saturday, 17 September 2005 02:06 (twenty years ago)

Most of my top local matches seem to be goths, LARPers, and geeks. Maybe the engine is trying to subtly hint that I'm a geek at heart too. Nothing wrong with that, but even though I've nothing against them, I find it difficult to imagine dating a goth or a LARPer. I have been exchanging a few messages with this cute local girl who draws comics and seems otherwise cool too... However, she hasn't answered to my latest message, nor has she logged in since September the 1st. Boo-hoo!

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Saturday, 17 September 2005 03:57 (twenty years ago)

I got a load of goths and LARPers as well, so I rewrote my profile to say "geeks, goths and gamers need not apply" and now NO ONE tries to send me messages, ahahahah!

Tho I did get one from a dodgy Guido type northern suburbs wogboy who said "hey babe wanna sex me" or some crap ew ew ew.

― Trayce (trayce), Saturday, 17 September 2005 04:36 (twenty years ago)

Maybe you got no answers because you're spoken for... Or do people actually go to OKCupid to look for penpals?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Saturday, 17 September 2005 04:55 (twenty years ago)

Well I just did the thing for a lark. But you have a point.

― Trayce (trayce), Saturday, 17 September 2005 05:41 (twenty years ago)

What's your username, by the way?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Saturday, 17 September 2005 05:46 (twenty years ago)

I... dont know! I signed up a looong time ago, and I never log in! Um. It might be trayce. Or trayceee or some variation thereof :/

― Trayce (trayce), Saturday, 17 September 2005 05:47 (twenty years ago)

Found you, you're Trayceee. I sent you a friendship request.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Saturday, 17 September 2005 05:56 (twenty years ago)

"penpals"

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Saturday, 17 September 2005 05:58 (twenty years ago)

Aw, Goths are cute. Some of them are even sexy.

To date only one person has contacted me through OKCupid, about a week ago. We've started vaguely saying "yeah we should meet up".

― Forest Pines (ForestPines), Saturday, 17 September 2005 06:13 (twenty years ago)

I just have to warn anyone who looks me up that I'm afraid I never look at OKC really :/

― Trayce (trayce), Saturday, 17 September 2005 06:15 (twenty years ago)

How did I miss this thread? This is hysterical.

― Ian Riese-Moraine: Let this bastard out, and you'll get whiplash! (Eastern Mantr, Sunday, 18 September 2005 13:09 (twenty years ago)

Oh the ironing, my match page just brings up 'Not Found' errors.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Sunday, 18 September 2005 14:38 (twenty years ago)

Oh dear, that reminds me, I haven't checked it this morning. Although I was moaning, my two best matches actually looked quite nice - one was a bowlcutted shoegazer boy in a paisley shirt (!!!!!!!) and the other was a Jared Harris lookalike with a pointy nose and ginger hair. So the matching function seems to be working fine, just none of the men ever seem to log on and check their messages. :-(

― The Brocade Fire (kate), Monday, 19 September 2005 07:05 (twenty years ago)

i daren't check it at work what with all the 'DO YOU WANT SEX TONIGHT?!!' adverts littered all over their pages

― Ste (Fuzzy), Monday, 19 September 2005 07:08 (twenty years ago)

Shoegazer boy wrote back! He's talking about Stereolab and Club AC-30. ::boggles:: Even if it's not a, you know *match* it would be great to meet someone to go to Sonic Cathedrals with who would get excited every time they play the Boo Radleys.

This is the pointy-nosed ginger one who hasn't logged in since May:

― The Brocade Fire (kate), Monday, 19 September 2005 07:11 (twenty years ago)

(I was concerned because he lists Belle and Suckasstian in his favourite bands, but he wrote back and was all "yeah, C86, jangle-pop" which is much much better than the wibbling twee.)

― The Brocade Fire (kate), Monday, 19 September 2005 07:14 (twenty years ago)

C81 was so much better!

I'm not on OKC anymore, although I was only on it after being persuaded to join. All my local matches were depressing, as I'd expected. They were all too tame/too nice/too innocent/too bland. The most intriguing person I found was in Macclenny, a severely redneck town about two hours east of here and twenty miles west of Jacksonville.

― Ian Riese-Moraine: Let this bastard out, and you'll get whiplash! (Eastern Mantr, Monday, 19 September 2005 14:12 (twenty years ago)

All my local matches are 10 years younger than me.

― Forest Pines (ForestPines), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:13 (twenty years ago)

You can specify the age range when you search, Forest! (I picked 30 to 40 and even 30 is stretching it.)

― The Brocade Fire (kate), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:14 (twenty years ago)

Holy fuck, Kate, is that The Edge???

― Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:17 (twenty years ago)

All my local matches are either goths or students. I suppose it's to be expected in Oxford, but still . . .

― Come Back Johnny B (Johnney B), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:17 (twenty years ago)

OK Cupid's matches are useless until you answer at least 1,000 questions. Thankfully, I did a lot of temp work last summer and managed to get up to 1,800 quite easily.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:18 (twenty years ago)

Jay-sus, The Edge!

― The Brocade Fire (kate), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:18 (twenty years ago)

x-post, gah, I've been bored at work, but I've never been bored enough to answer 1000 OKC questions!

― The Brocade Fire (kate), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:19 (twenty years ago)

My #3 match:

http://is0.okcupid.com/pics/252/2522278822787377261/1077549197.jpg

She won't ever answer my messages though :(

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:21 (twenty years ago)

Your second match looks nice, Kate. He has a PAISLEY hat!

More updates from Mandee please.

― Archel (Archel), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:22 (twenty years ago)

My number 1 match is in my office. We had it all out in a thread a while back. I emailed her, she emailed me . . . nothing at all came of it, and we now ignore each other studiously.

― Come Back Johnny B (Johnney B), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:22 (twenty years ago)

still no woos or mails. i think it's broken.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:23 (twenty years ago)

Both of my top matches play guitar and wear paisley! I think that's good matching! (Considering that in my picture, I am both wearing paisley and playing a guitar.)

― The Brocade Fire (kate), Monday, 19 September 2005 14:25 (twenty years ago)

I'm going to woo the big-haired fella, just to see what happens

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 19 September 2005 15:13 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, he seems pretty dejected. Make him happy, Mandee.

I had a number of woos and e-mails when I first started out, Ste, but after a few months nothing happened at all, so it might very well be broken!

― Ian Riese-Moraine: Let this bastard out, and you'll get whiplash! (Eastern Mantr, Monday, 19 September 2005 15:17 (twenty years ago)

I think people just don't woo any more. It's all instant messaging (which I turned off because it kept popping up and disappearing and really bothering me) and stuff now.

― The Brocade Fire (kate), Monday, 19 September 2005 15:18 (twenty years ago)

(In other "small world" news, it turns out that Shoegazer boy reviewed my former band in 2003 - I remember the review very clearly because he spent, like, 5 paragraphs describing what I was wearing and one paragraph on the music. (that may be a slight exaggeration. But only slight.))

I actually went on a *date* with Shoegazer Boy on Monday.

Considering it was the first date I'd been on since January, it went surprisingly well. I was supposed to go to a gig with him last night, but I was so tired that I ended up blowing him off - which I feel terrible about (even though I warned him that there was a very good chance I might not go). I did suggest a raincheck but he says he's busy all weekend - unless we do something during the day. I'd like to suggest a Sunday publunch or something.

It's just terrifying, all this. I don't know. I kind of want to say "argh, I've changed my mind about this whole Dating Thing because it's terrifying, but you're really cool and interesting and fun to hang out with and have groovy paisley shirts - can we just hang out and stuff?"

Mandee, I like Megadeath Hair Dude, but he looks like he fancies himself a bit. :-)

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 13:22 (twenty years ago)

I wasn't trying to be funny or cruel! Seriously, "Dating" is formalized hanging out with someone to see if you're compatible and has a whole bunch of unnecessary baggage heaped on top of it. You will have about 3000% more fun if you stop worrying about impressing the other person and just see if you like/get along with him; you've already got interests in common so it's not like you don't have anything to talk about or stuff that you can do together. A "Date" is as much about "could we be friends?" as it is about "could we be together forever and ever and ever TRU WUV" IMO.

So you felt more like a woman in chains? No sowing the seeds of love afterwards? Let me give you some advice for the young at heart; everybody wants to rule this mad world, so don't change for some random dude you think you might fall head over heels for. You'll shout at yourself later and it will make all the mothers talk badly about you.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 October 2005 13:49 (twenty years ago)

OK, understood, Dan. I don't know; it does often feel like there's so much PRESSURE because you're on a Date, and I need to relax - but I find it hard enough to relax in normal social situations, let alone ones where there's that added frisson of "do we want to bonk each other?" Sometimes it feels more like a job interview than something I would want to do for fun.

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 13:51 (twenty years ago)

But the thing is, it's as much an interview for HIM as it is for YOU! Set the sex thing aside for a moment; can you even talk to him? Does he meet your standards? Do you have any interest at all in hanging out with him, going to shows with him, going out to eat with him, talking nonsense with him, etc etc etc? If you go into a "Date" thinking, "Oh I hope HE likes ME" you miss out on the important detail that YOU have to like HIM, too; at the end of the day, from your perspective, that should be the more pressing issue.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 October 2005 13:54 (twenty years ago)

This is very true, and I've been trying to pay more attention to things like this. I often spend so much time on dates trying to keep the conversation going, thinking up new things to talk about that will impress the other person... but then again, it's quite important to kind of hang back, and let silence descend and see if the other person takes up the challenge of keeping up conversation.

OK, that doesn't sound right... in an ideal situation, conversation should flow. But when I'm on A Date, I kind of make a point of asking questions, like - if I know that a person is into X or has just seen Y band, I will keep track of it, and ask "Oh, how was Y the other night?" - not in a stalkery type way, but just to show I'm paying attention and interested in their interests.

But, without sounding arrogant, lately I've been actually paying attention to how much the bloke does the same thing - does he remember *my* interests? Does he ask me "how was that thing you were doing the other night?"

One of my worst relationship faults is that I get very very wrapped up in other people without waiting to find out if they're mutually wrapped up in me. So how do you do this without swinging to the opposite extreme and becoming (even more) self obsessed?

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 13:59 (twenty years ago)

In my last "relationship" I think I kind of got swept up in that - I was so impressed and flattered and amazed that he was asking me questions about me and taking an interest in me and my interests and my life that perhaps I read a lot more into that in terms of his interest level. When I found out later, he was just that way with *everyone*.

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:05 (twenty years ago)

I don't have a good answer for that. There are conversational gambits that you can try where, if you're sustaining the conversation, you alternate between topics about him and topics about yourself but as I'm the world's most passive conversationalist I can't really outline how it would work.

Ideally, a "Date" is about two things:

1) Having a fun time.
2) Getting to know the other person.

Your main responsibility is to relax, enjoy yourself and see if you can get along with this other person. If you are compatible personalities, the initial hurdles will take care of themselves. If you aren't, well, at least you had a night out.

I make something of a hard distinction between issues you need to worry about when starting a relationship and issues you need to worry about when attempting to sustain a relationship and the worry of "Is he as into me as I am into him?" definitely strikes me as falling into the latter bucket; at the beginning, it's kind of expected that one person is going to fall harder than the other. I really wouldn't worry about that until the relationship starts becoming more serious (in general, monogamous but YMMV; everyone's got a different definition of "serious relationship").

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:12 (twenty years ago)

I *always* forget number 1. I just so don't think of dating as a fun activity. I suppose maybe I should try to do more activity dates, even though I sort of frown on them, rather than those "go to a pub and stare at each other for an hour or two" first dates.

I mean, you need to be able to talk, so I'd never go to the movies for a first date. But perhaps I need to be more aware of it as an activity, and an activity that should be *fun*.

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:16 (twenty years ago)

Activity dates are FANTASTIC for two reasons:

1) They take the pressure off. There's some specific thing you're going to be doing where your energy/focus is going to be on the activity, not on the other person and not on yourself.

2) They are an opportunity for you to see how the person your with enjoys himself; this can tell you just as much about him and your compatibility as conversations with the added bonus that you get to have comparatively stress-free fun while doing it.

Dinner and a movie is great because you can have the "getting to know you" conversations, then use the movie as both a bonding experience ("Look! We shared an activity!") and a breather ("I can't think of anything else to talk about! Thank God I get to watch something for the next two hours that will give me more conversation fodder.").

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:24 (twenty years ago)

the worry of "Is he as into me as I am into him?" definitely strikes me as falling into the latter bucket;

Actually, I don't know that that's true. My general experience (except for a few rare cases) has been that I'm into him, and he's not into me that way at all. Which is kind of problematic.

x-post

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:28 (twenty years ago)

The problem with activity dates (especially with meeting people through the interweb, rather than through friends, so they are essentially blind dates) is that if you meet the person and it's almost immediately apparent that it's a no go, then you are still stuck doing something with them for two hours or whatever.

Granted, this is a theoretical problem, but still.

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:29 (twenty years ago)

I have a very unromantic view of romantic relationships; as far as I'm concerned, they need to be placed on a firm grounding in genuine, non-romantic friendship first (which can take years) (obv I am not opposed to having sex with friends, heh).

Actually, a movie works to your advantage in this respect because you don't have to spend the two hours talking to him and afterwards you can always beg off because you're tired.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:34 (twenty years ago)

Actually, I think this approach probably works if you have a long-term stable peer group. Not really something I've ever had experience of. ::shrugs::

Actually, a movie works to your advantage in this respect because you don't have to spend the two hours talking to him and afterwards you can always beg off because you're tired.

Provided they don't try to grope you in the bloody movie theatre... yes, this has happened to me, on a first date, which was actually a sympathy date, rather than out of genuine interest.

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:40 (twenty years ago)

Though, point taken. I'm going to start suggesting movies as a second date option, after we've been through the "you don't have two heads, do you?" filtering. Early movie, and then talk about it afterwards, perhaps, if we get on. Good idea.

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:42 (twenty years ago)

Heh, the only times I've had issues with someone groping me has been when I'm in a relationship.

Dinner and a movie or going out dancing was ALWAYS my first date suggestion because I knew that, regardless of how the interactions with the other person went, I'd have a good time. Obviously that doesn't work for everyone.

Hope I've been helpful here.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 October 2005 14:46 (twenty years ago)

i think the pressure thing is definitely true.. it's easiest when you're not constantly thinking about how to get them to shag you. and also being prepared and not be too disappointed if (more often than not) things don't work out.

p.s. i think the movie thing only works if you actually enjoy watching movies! and you like the movie being watched.

i think ones i would enjoy most are things like a carnival where you can walk about and it's possible to talk when you want to, or you can just WATCH THINGS when not and laugh at silliness together and things. aw.

Haha one of my first dates in college was when I took this girl to see "The Fisher King". She HATED it and gave me shit for taking her to a weird, gory movie! I knew then that it wouldn't last.

― The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 October 2005 15:03 (twenty years ago)

haha that's the make or break deal

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 3 October 2005 15:04 (twenty years ago)

p.s. i think the movie thing only works if you actually enjoy watching movies!

This is true. I'm not really a "movie" person, I'm a bit film deaf so it would be hard for me to suggest going to a movie, as it's not a natural activity for me. And really, I prefer watching things on DVD anyway.

Carnival... hrmmm. Maybe I should start taking first dates to museums from now on. Except they're rarely open on weekday evenings, which is a bummer. I mean, why doesn't The Science Museum do singles nights? That would be the best thing ever.

OK, I like the new search options however, either the US is more bisexual than I thought or OKCupid is telling me I'm more dykey than I thought.

three weeks pass...

exciting new developments on Okcupid.com lately.

I seem to have a new admirer, who wrote me this stunning prose last week:

I'v had my eyes on you, for quite some time, young lady.

Don't mistaken my 'gentleman' type of letter writing, as me being soft on possible submissives, ok?

Right now, i'm sitting here, in full constume..

Because it puts me in the proper mood..

In my attempts to soooth the waves of my prey.

Can you hear that sound, that a breath makes, when muffled by a ski-mask?

I can.

While I stare intently..

At your lovely face..

While i try to.. 'controle' my every word..

So as to not frighten my little future..

Desert.

I want you to know, that I'v been obsessing over you, your pics and your soul, for quite a while.

I will do EVERYTHING in my powers, to 'get you'.

I want you to understand this, before we continue..

So that, when one day, in the not tooo distance future, when you are in my powerful grip..

You will look up to me, bound in the special chair I am preparing for you..

Biting, anxiously into the moistened 'hanky gag' tied almost 'too tight' around your gorious face..

And you'll think, furiously..

"How did I ever let him, get me into this situation!!"

-----
Well I would absolutely lerve for you to 'let me' have the chance, to seduce you..

I promise you, you will regret it..

If you don't.

For I am not only a harsh, sometimes mean, and over-the-top Dominant..

But I am verrry careing, loving, and fun tooo =:]

HOWEVER be advised: You have been warned..

This is not a threat..

But it is, a promise.

I will not read or answer any more notes or im's here on cupid from here on out, from you. Because I tooo cherish, above all from a woman, is true willingness-- to let me, do what I think is best, to her.

We will start, by having you address me as:

'My Masked Intruder'

when you write.

If you don't accept this, then I may not respond, unless you have a good reason to decline my request.

Do I make myself clear?

Either way, good luck and take care,
Masked Intruder

Can I just repeat this line, for funniness?
"How did I ever let him, get me into this situation!!"

I responded with "O RLY?"

then I got the above message in response.

I should add here that my masked intruder also linked me to his myspace page in a separate message. Here is what myspace says in his "about me" section. I also noted that his only friend is a 15 year old in Illinois.

For those of you wondering what the hell is the matter with me, here it is in a nut shell.

Since I'm getting older now, and still don't have any children of my own, I guess I feel like I 'need' every woman that comes across my path.

I know from past experience, than when I am in a serious relationship, that I don't feel this way any longer, and I am quite happy with 'one' good woman.

The only problem with that, is that I am always the one that is more dedicated, right up to the end.

I have been alone for quite some time now, but I think I am ready to make one more, big effort to do somthing in the area of having a.. I guess what could be called a family.

However, things WILL be different 'this time'... I promise.

First, there is no need in ANY of you ladies to think you are going to be the 'only one', cause it ain't gunna happen... sorry.

And I mean this.. I don't care how pretty, nice, young, rich or famous you are, I will NEVER let anyone allow me to leave myself vulnerable to 'attack', by not having 'other' female friends, submissives, wives, whatever, in my life.

I am NOT after a 'harem', or a 'David Korish' type 'Branch Davidian' type situation..

However.. the thought of aggravating the 'fag Feds' with this type of scenario may be tooo much to resist.

After all we all know why the Government did what they did to that man and his family... which is-- he was getting tooo much of that young ?vzzk. lol

Although I will never 'strap' myself with one woman, I will possibly have 'positions' available which will have lervly terms such as; Queen, Princess, and 'boss lady'.

On the subject of children, I suppose I would like to have 'as many as possible', to make up for my errant youth..

Adopting children into the fold is a definite go.

If you would like to hear more about this, you will need to request to be added to my 'Friends List', and I will send you information, via your MySpace email, on how to contact me further.

You will NOT be able to send me any messages directly throught MySpace, nor IM.

The reason I have the system set up like this is to stop spam, players and gold diggers from waisting our time.

On finances, I am poor and struggle just like 99.9% of the earth.

The good news, I have no debt, steady income from disability checks, and I am poised to make money when I'm ready to start working again.

I am not a 'go getter', but when the time is right, and I have someone(s) to care for other than me, I will be able to produce more than enuff income.

I'v been semi weathly before, I know how to doit, my favorite saying is: noone can keep a man from working.

The age I put in my bio is not correct. So you can't say I lied, because I just admited it wasn't true.

I am 49 =:|

Everything else is pretty complete and accurate and will stay that way until other wise noted.

Except the location which should be no biggy. I do this for testing purposes.

If we are going to 'get together for coffee' or 'something'-- you will just have to get your little (or chunky) arses on a bus or whatever and 'come to me'! lol

I change my age in the bio as needed to see how different age brackets 'think'.

I am a middle aged white guy, that looks somewhat Arabian, lol

I look 40sh.

Feel 30sh.

Act 20sh.

I 'can be' VERY old fashion, and terribly dominating.

I am quite stocky at 5'7", and 250lbs!!

I DO hold my weight well.

My legs look like 'tree trunks'!! lol

I plan on moving from AmeriKa soon, or to Alaska in the interim.

Although I am currently disabled, I can take care of myself, and am rehabilitating back into my field, Computer Science & Social Engineering.

My home doubles as a portable-- DUNGEON.. ha .

Please note that when 'applying' to be on my 'Friends List'-- that I DO NOT take the word 'Friend' lightly..

The ONLY reason I use it here is because it is the 'technical' term used by MySpace managment to perform this task of adding peeps to your web site.

We are LUCKY to have God give us even ONE truely 'good friend' in our life.. so you should use that word sparingly.

So if you tooo you are DISGUSTED with the current state of affairs concerning relationships in general, that society and governments have forced upon us...

And are interested in 'trying different things'-- alternative life styles, (not homosexuality), then send your request immediately.. (space is limited ;)

Ladies, good luck in whatever endeavor you engage in...

I don't care about looks, as long as you're not piggish.
Chunky females are ok, again unless your a pig.

I have no problem with woman taller than me, infact I love bringing you down to size-- psychologically :)

You may want to have children, and or adopt some, someday..

This guy in 5 years:

Police in a Columbus, Ohio, suburb arrested Alan Patton, 54, outside a movie theater restroom in February and later listened to him describe in detail his unusual behavior. According to police, Patton is obsessed with collecting and consuming the urine of young boys, which he said he has done for over 40 years. "I like it because it makes me closer to them like I'm drinking their youth." His modus operandi is to shut off a urinal's flush water, wait for a boy to finish, and then gather up the urine. "Listening to him describe it," said one detective, "it's like listening to a crack or cocaine addict. He's addicted to children's urine." [WCMH-TV (Columbus), 2-21-06]

Yeah, I used to get messages like that. They were exciting the first couple of times until I realised they were fake (the ones I got weren't so full of imaginatively spelled words). I put up a message that said "Dear girls of Russia and Winnipeg who are fake. Stop asking for my email address. I may look like I just fell off the shit cart yesterday, but I'm not gonna give it to you", and the messages stopped. I'm kinda sad about that now. This guys sounds good, though.

Bel Biv Devoe?

Muthaaaafecker.. let's talk about Prefab Sprout instead - and then do Scritti Politti just to show we both know what a Fairlight can do in deranged hands.. with all of 8bit sample resolution.

Okay, I'm back. I deleted my Okcupid account years ago, but in a stoned moment of stupidity, I created one on Plentyoffish.com.

Yikes.

Okay, so thus far I seem to be VERY popular among the 40+ crowd. They think I'm a real dish. ALSO, men obsessed with 50's memorabilia have also favorited me - probably because I have FUNKY, HORN-RIMMED GLASSES OMG. Although if they are expecting to me to go to a Rockabilly concert they are dreaming.

So, beyond the 40+ set and the rockabilly wannabes, there is also another group that is aching to get in my pants:
