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

me too

Guess I have to kinda begrudgingly thank OKC for initially introducing me to someone I've been seeing for a couple of months now and who I like an enormous amount. Our actual OKC-centric interaction was brief and took place almost two years ago, but I'm certain that we never would have met via any other means. And she was a 98% match, so they're doing something right over there.

your girlfriends off the internet

Status update: Message to crush object till being ignored. Nice move, self.

I can't work out how many of those words are meant to be verbs

lol

*still

is having messages ignored a novel experience?

Not lately, I guess. I've been internet dating for over 10 years tho and in past episodes when I was younger and my profile probably telegraphed how emotionally available I was, I could go on multiple dates a week with people I might have actually liked, always be written to & responded to. Now it's rare for me to even be interested in someone's profile and men I find attractive ignore me. Boo hoo, who cares.

so cruel

Oh how adorable! I got straight-up negged yesterday! A message that simply said "slightly disappointed". From a very unattractive 50 year old married guy, eurgh.

If it was a joke, it was a miserable failure of one!

let us jointly craft a response. or just cut to the chase and let estela write it

on one hand i lol'd, on the other hand fuck these guys (the prank pullers)

although probably if u thought that http://www.missuniverse.com/missteenusa/members/profile/651706/year:2012 was giving u signals, u deserve whatever happens to u

or just cut to the chase and let estela write it

Heh. I decided not to write a cutting reply, tis a better stab to simply ignore 'em, imo.

three Brigham Young University college students set up a social media experiment to test how many men would show up at a frozen yogurt shop to meet a pretty girl they’d found on Tinder, but knew nothing about.

Wait, isnt that college a hardline hardcore mormon school?

My usual response to nice messages from men I don't want to meet is 'Hi, X. I don't think we'd be a good match, but thanks for getting in touch and good luck on the site - we all need it'. Yesterday I got a reply that said 'wow how rude. cheers'.

Thats why I just dont reply. Ugh.

It works fine most of the time - either I don't hear anything more, or occasionally people write back to say 'thanks, you too' which is nice. I think I'm being featured somewhere or something, because I'm getting loads of emails from very low matches - this guy was one of them.

Hey, I think I found you guys the perfect man: http://www.okcupid.com/profile/ModelGirlsOnly

I identify with "Broody ex hooker in her 40's playin' "Hard-to-Get"

thats me in 8 years. Guess I WONT BE ABLE TO DATE THIS GUY :((((

incredible

that's like a doctor bronner's label of resentment

oh man. I'm probably out as I'm male and 5% Match, 0% Friend, 87% Enemy, but good luck ladies!!!

"Y'all got issues" No, really?

Lol Dr Bronner's label otm.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Makow

oh my god these links he has in his profile are absurd

can someone explain this part to me please? ""Crotch-Fuss Manipulators" Whaaa?

'Henry Makow' is actually the name of my misogynist Henry Cow covers band.

seeing this amazing person makes me wish i could order my matches with the lowest first.

"Crotch-Fuss Manipulators" Whaaa?

Yeah, I have no idea.

I think that's a kind of chiropractic gynecologist, ENBB.

trying real hard not to laugh out loud at that, f hazel

mental commentary from goole

My self-summary
STRAIGHT [all caps, very nice, super clear]
Single [uh ok, there is a button for that tho dude]
Nice guy [oh god, do you even...]
Realist [aaand we have liftoff.]

x-post Oh, I totally LOLd. That whole thing is insane. OMG.

I'm confused as to why he seems to think London is the gayest place on Earth.

So I think the best part of my OKC experience is basically this thread.

TBH a lot about this person confuses me. Dr. Bonner ref so otm not even funny.

CROTCH-FUSS! MANIUPLATE a white man's SOUL! fucking BITCHES! ALL ONE!

Yeah, fhaze, me too. I'm not quite at the point of doing things on okc just to write about them here, but I'm close.

Crush Object wrote me back btw, but without much enthusiasm that I could detect.

Although it's possible I was too busy twirling around in my own giddy head to notice, you know how it is.

lol goole killin it itt

Yes Orbit, I always hated it when OKC supercrushes would write me back, and the email notification was thrilling, but the message was full of obvious polite disinterest.

I'm going to focus on inappropriate professional attachments for now.

Ted Kaczynski is on OK Cupid?

hoooly shit that profile is off the chain crazypants

Another winner with this answer: "Racist jokes can be tasteful and funny if done right." DELETE.

I do not understand what the hell is wrong with people, I just don't.
