i think that's what estela said but i don't know what "have a bar" means haha

harbl, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:18 (sixteen years ago)

the only non off-putting parts are "hello" and "please write back" tbh.

tbh the "please write back" seems a little desperate and sad and thus off-putting imo.

tehresa, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:18 (sixteen years ago)

it means tolerate in strine

sarahel, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:19 (sixteen years ago)

think it's something about lawyering

why does a guy who sends messages to girls on dating sites have to reassure her of how hetero and 100% male he is, unless he's totally gay or only like 86% male

harbl, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:20 (sixteen years ago)

yeah, that's creepy. aside from ethnicity, avoid generalizations about "girls like you" and defending your masculinity.

Maria, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:20 (sixteen years ago)

it's one thing to be defensive about your heterosexuality if like...someone is questioning it? but to introduce yourself to a stranger with "NO HOMO"...

tho it's kinda impressive that you managed to perv on a girl and make me question your heterosxuality at the same time.

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:20 (sixteen years ago)

he has 4/5 of a penis.

sarahel, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:21 (sixteen years ago)

harbl beat me by 37 seconds

Lorax you're setting yourself up here dude

4/5" xpost

any old tawny port in a storm (electricsound), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:21 (sixteen years ago)

pretty sure he enjoys it on some level abbott...it's win-win

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:22 (sixteen years ago)

i enjoy it on a level too, it's like being able to stop and give a speech to a guy on the street who has just whistled at you

captain lorax's letter was sooooo written by shiroibasketshoes

homosexual II, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:23 (sixteen years ago)

trust me you don't want a girl who wouldn't see anything wrong with that letter
sorry

my ideal girl would see the things that are wrong in general and not be soo off-put by them. she would be laid back enough to dismiss little mistakes.

yeah that letter was bad, but that's what I get when I try to show off my whole personality. some of it is stupid. some of it has to defend manliness. these are things I thought girls learn to look past (but yeah, not in an initial letter)

What the hell is hamster love (CaptainLorax), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:23 (sixteen years ago)

more hetero than the average guy

this made me read the whole letter again in a Yogi Bear voice

lorax = amazing sock

mookieproof, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:23 (sixteen years ago)

ts: "little mistakes" v. "personality defects"

tehresa, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:24 (sixteen years ago)

if 'has to defend manliness' is part of your personality, you should consider trying to change that part of your personality

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:24 (sixteen years ago)

Showing off my god honest self is a mistake for inital letters

What the hell is hamster love (CaptainLorax), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:24 (sixteen years ago)

that goes for anybody tbh

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:25 (sixteen years ago)

I only had to defend it because my picture has stuffed animals - what would another guy do if he had stuffed animals in his profile pic?

What the hell is hamster love (CaptainLorax), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:25 (sixteen years ago)

admit he was a weirdo?

tehresa, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:26 (sixteen years ago)

dude if it makes you feel defensive use another picture. you don't HAVE to.

Maria, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:26 (sixteen years ago)

not bring attention to them imo

any old tawny port in a storm (electricsound), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:26 (sixteen years ago)

well, most guys who have to constantly defend their manliness would probably replace the stuffed animals w/ a picture of themselves in an affliction t-shirt

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:26 (sixteen years ago)

why are there stuffed animals in your profile pic? are you a furry?

sarahel, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:27 (sixteen years ago)

I LIKE THAT PICTURE :(
see the wdyll october post

What the hell is hamster love (CaptainLorax), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:27 (sixteen years ago)

can furries be manly?

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:27 (sixteen years ago)

also, male or female, when people don't have a picture of themselves as their myspace/facebook/okcupid, I immediately assume that they're self-conscious about their looks.

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:28 (sixteen years ago)

okay, note to self - don't draw attention to the stuffed animal pic even if I like it

What the hell is hamster love (CaptainLorax), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:28 (sixteen years ago)

i saw two kinda manly dudes the other day driving in a car with a "YIFF" bumper sticker.

sarahel, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:29 (sixteen years ago)

they should make affliction shirts that say NO HOMO in Fraktur

...And You Will Know Us by the BLAZE of YA DEAD HOMIE (los blue jeans), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:29 (sixteen years ago)

also consider putting up a picture of you drinking beer / a bottle of hard liquor

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:30 (sixteen years ago)

maybe pose with a power tool, but not a household appliance.

sarahel, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:31 (sixteen years ago)

the picture of me holding a beer also has me holding a guitar hero guitar

What the hell is hamster love (CaptainLorax), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:31 (sixteen years ago)

women are into housework though, a vacuum could be ok

Maria, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:31 (sixteen years ago)

perfect, make that your profile pic

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:31 (sixteen years ago)

wow this thread got legendary!

Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:32 (sixteen years ago)

posing like you're repairing the vacuum might be a good look, as long as you're not showing bad plumber's crack and wearing clean underwear.

sarahel, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:33 (sixteen years ago)

these girls are trying to trick you lorax so you will never get laid. beer picture is where it's at, trust me.

question: can you clearly see your tattoos in the beer picture photo?

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:35 (sixteen years ago)

I have 1 pic in my okcupid profile with a guitar hero guitar
I have 3 pics in my okcupid profile with stuffed animals (one is a plush lorax, one is a slime, and the other is that new one with platypuses and what not)
I don't own many pictures of myself but I happened to really like the way those pics turned out

What the hell is hamster love (CaptainLorax), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:35 (sixteen years ago)

Lorax I am gonna keep talking about when I was 15/16 because sincerely I think it may be helpful! The big thing I had not realised then was that a lot of the time I thought about some girl: "Oh, she is in my attractiveness bracket". Or about another: "Oh, she's a league below me". And these appraisals were basically correct!

But the big thing I had not realised was that because I was an insane virgin who had never kissed a girl, Girl#1 was totally out of my league! And that the only way this would ever change is if I learnt how to talk to Girl#2, who tbh I'd be lucky to get interested!

IDK, this probably isn't the thread for this.

Gravel Puzzleworth, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:35 (sixteen years ago)

you should not have a bar of any girl who would reply to a letter like that.

not even if she makes you bar up??

iatee, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 00:37 (sixteen years ago)

I'm actually a real sensitive cuddly person in real life and not self conscious about those pics :/
the only reason I felt the need to defend my manliness is because I thought chicks wouldnt understand how a guy could have so many stuffed animal pics without being a fag or furry
