Just when you thought it was safe - OK CUPID PART 3: The Return of the WOO!

Yyyyyyyyyyup. I'd have zero qualms about instantly aborting a date with anyone who blatantly misrepresented themselves in some similar way. Because what else are they lying about? And dumb shit like the "straighten your hair, curly headed ladies!" nonsense in that article. Just...shut up and stop dispensing stupid advice, damaged lady.

I don't know, I find little white lies reassuring. That lady, I have no idea though. Cannot relate.

I don't know that I pay attention to height other than a vague "small, medium, large" compared to my own stature.

And...account disabled. It wasn't a total waste this time 'round as I thankfully met someone who's quickly become a friend. But still.

Oh my goooooddddddd D:

Only two entries?? I feel cheated.

lol I think it was just launched today

konichiwa bitches

When I heard all the horrors messages girls received I stopped using OKC.
The fact that only girl replied in maybe 40 attempts also was key to my decision.

I dont get anything that bad, thank fuck. I do get a lot of pretty lame and sometimes slightly creepy stuff tho ("hi want a massage call me on [cellphone number]").

More sadly though, I pretty much never get replies ot the messages I initate. Even though Ive had some succesful dates from OKC and have met some genuinely awesome people, that has ALL been from them messaging me first. Its as if whatever I feel my tastes are, I dont deserve/have wrong somehow. IDGI. The guy I got tangled up with recently (we have settled things between us and decided we're best friends, and are still very close) keeps telling me "youre awesome and sexy and could have anyone you wanted".

But he gets plenty of OKC dates and I get none. What gives, guys!?

Also, the one girl who replied I was pretty excited about it. I mean, i'm a fairly shy person and have been rejected harshly quite recently so it was a little happy event. In the end she said she doesn't want to meet someone from the internet because it makes her feel uncomfortable. She then closed her account for a good month and now she is back online, so I asked her out. If nothing happens then I'm abandonning online dating altogether. I'd rather check around my network friends then sending messages and waiting for answers.

just received:

Do you happen to know when I should expect the spontaneous vomiting to subside after exposing my eyes to your photos?. I can't seem to get a hold of it and my throat is burning. :(

i'm reminded of that old simpsons gag: "why would they come to our concert just to boo us?"

That is pretty rude!

"that's not vomit; just your soul getting some air"

Man, I know negging exists but thats just fucked up.

that is crazy

Maybe it's a Wayne's World reference?

"You sure you werent looking in a mirror?" is the only lamearse comment I'd be able to make to something like that, ha ha.

Have you reported it?

i thought about it? ultimately i just laughed about it, so whatever

i wonder if this kind of thing isn't her okcupid shtick (fwiw, this was lady-on-dude negging) - maybe i've encountered a little-known female member of the mini-papas

What a cow.

trayce otm. obv response is to post her profile itt.

Anyone else been rated 4-5 stars by someone, message that person, who proceeds to not reply back? I'm starting to wonder if the OKCbot is playing matchmaker or something.

Or else my "I lost my number, can I have yours" come ons need refreshing.

Please tell me you dont really use cheesy lines like that in first messages Lee ;P

Ands yeah ive been rated and/or favourited and never gotten messages from it, but eh *shrug*

I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND why when I get a mutual 4 or 5 star rating the person never replies back. TO THIS DAY, someone who's saved me as a favorite or rated me high has never replied.

oh so you can see when someone saves you as a favorite?

Oh . no you cant sorry, unless you pay I think. I guess I did just mean when you get star rated.

have u ever had vomitus interruptus

got a co-worker for a match the other day. hope I hid them before they saw me!

Ive stumbled across friends before which is always hilare. Theyre often really high matches too but that stands to reason!

... cheesy?

You dont think "I lost my number, can I have yours?" is cheesy?

Let me run that by my cousin, you know who.

:P

Could be due to the fact that one of the OKC "achievements" is to rate 10 people. Maybe some dummies just rate whoever.

Not gonna lie, the vomit line might work on me given the right context. It's hilariously over-the-top, way past the point of being rude. But as a first message to someone you don't know, with no indication of tone, on a site with countless jerks is probably the wrong place for it.

OK, OK Cupid. My profile says I'm looking specifically for single, straight guys. Why would you include in my quiver matches a bisexual "available" dude? Not helping!

suggestive sell

http://www.okstereotype.me/

the gender/age variations (here: http://www.okstereotype.me/stats/) are something to behold.

You are probably a Girl and we are 82% sure.

...

Suddenly I'm not sure about any of their stats.

They are 75% sure I'm a guy.

Ach profile has to be publically accessible for that to work. Nooo.

You can cut and paste your essay instead.

Well that was interesting. They were right about everything except my age: they aimed 8 years too low.

RealAge (tm)

Oh missed the paste bit. LOL wtf, I'm a 29 year old guy because I talk about music in my profile a lot!?

Key words to be male include "thinking" and "computers". Thanks, quiz. Its nice to know the fact I use my brain makes me male o_0
