hidden profile

So I have a friend who is on an online dating site but she hid her profile which I know people do sometimes. You get discouraged with stupid emails, not-so-attractive wanna be suitors, ridiculous winks and designated suitors (by the site) who you wouldn't be caught dead with (I'm sure they are kind, wonderful people).

But I have already paid for 6 months so I am going to get my monies worth. I'm by no means successfully dating or even speaking with any spectacular possibility... but you just can't make this stuff up and if nothing else it is the best entertainment ever.

Today I scrolled through my possible love interests and had the best laugh!

A 60 year old man literally on a horse with a cowboy hat on at least 500 miles away.
A man with candycanes hanging from his ears.
A gentleman who looks frightened -whose profile name is "Octomom Taken"
The nerdy-est man I have ever seen in my life with a pocket protector, glasses - standing in front of filing cabinets (I guess he's a professional man)
A guy whose profile name indicates he's in Havasu but he lives in LA
Somebody who claims to be a "Man of Mystery"
A Mr. Bean look-a-like whose profile namen is "Not Taken" - I can't imagine why...
And then there are people I don't even want to talk about because I think they might be "special" and I know my ticket to HELL would be on overnight delivery.

It might not be what they intend, what I paid for or what I hoped for. But it's something... and it's damn funny.

Gold Man and a Scrunch

I just have to ask why oh why the man's profile picture is a nude photo of himself painted gold posed in some thinking man pose. His tagline is like "Your Perfect Match". I didn't even read what he wrote because I couldn't even to stand to go even further. I just want to know if anyone ever actually emails him... and who are they and what is wrong with them.

I did however read the first line of the man who said that he wants someone who makes him smile just when they "scrunch up their face". Would he smile to know that I scrunched up MY face when I looked at his photo? Probably not.

Don't say I didn't warn you

There are scams coming out of West Africa with people who are on online dating sites. They get to know you and THEN for whatever reason they go to like Nigeria and need help and money. So if you thought the local idiots were bad... now you have more to worry about (sigh)
