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

better start walking, all the roads and airports are closing!

OK I might be a few weeks!

... and possibly half dead from exposure.

Just tweaked my profile to add some stuff about TREEHOUSES. Because I love treehouses, and anyone who has that level of whimsy... le sigh.

ugh u r so outdoorsy

lololol <3

and fit!

And apparently I like travel, if it involves delivering beer.

actually I am a big phony, cause I am planning on travelling this year, I'm prob going to be in the US - the original plan was March but Ive no money so now the plan is to hit up the US in September.

I should attempt to FAPdate with everyone in this thread hahaha.

i would reactivate my okc account for all this traycefap

Ooer!

i don't know what that means! i don't speak your upside-down language!

You don't speak english?

And apparently I like travel, if it involves delivering beer.

got this image of you trudging through snow with a six-pack hanging off yr neck

i don't speak australian ;-)

Actually "ooer" is a very english phrase! Anyway :)

Please swing by DC Trayce! I will give you a tour of all the bars in which I've brightly looked at my watch and said 'well, I'd better...'

DC stop is a must, Trayce! I keep offering my guest room to people and no one takes me up on it :(

btw

uh oh

It was announced today that commercial dating service Match.com ponied up $50 million to buy out free dating website OKCupid. Their first order of business? Scrub OkCupid’s popular blog post “Why You Should Never Pay For Online Dating,” which starts: “Today I’d like to show why the practice of paying for dates on sites like Match.com and eHarmony is fundamentally broken,” and ends: “So next time you hear Match or eHarmony talking about how huge they are, you should do like I do and think of Goliath—and how he probably bragged all the time about how much he could bench. Then you should go sign up for OkCupid.”

Well, if this changes their model, I'm out. It was only ever a fun thing for me and I am so not interested in the "serious" online dating model of other sites, so fuck that.

oh hi rogermexico, i am the guy who messaged you sometime last year about don b. i still haven't found my copy of forty stories.

i have another date tomorrow night. english student, pretty, seems p chill :)

someone actually wrote me for once
and i feel too lazy to even respond

If he's not into rock climbing and kayaking, why bother.

lol

I'm almost considering signing up again just to make a gag profile and seeing what happens.

Go on, before match.com make everyone pay for the fricking thing.

Also I can send you crepey messages.

I wish Hooz would write my response for me

I always choke on sending a message to someone. It seems like nothing I write will be clever or eyecatching enough.

Dating shouldnt feel like freaking job interviews :|

i always found the initial message v difficult. replying is usually pretty easy.

deleted my profile the other day. whatever purpose it ever served has long since passed

I'm mainly in it for amusement value. The pool of matches is so static I'm beginning to think it's not worth taking seriously, but I'll leave it there.

hey danski! i've been off okc since, like, october due to: dating life was getting way too complicated... but it was super-cool to meet you and if/when i inevitably turn it back on i'm looking forward to meeting more ilxors!

hey trayce and all! sorry my jibe took us sideways. that "ooer" was funny! and trayce, you pretty much can't avoid the west coast so drinks are on me in SF.

Awesome! I'll hold you to that.

Well, if this changes their model, I'm out. It was only ever a fun thing for me and I am so not interested in the "serious" online dating model of other sites, so fuck that.

absolutely. if we're talking like $4,99 a month or something i might stick around just cause it actually has served me really well, but if they move to some shitty $19.99+ model or whatever fuck that

Oh no way am i paying at all. Heck I've had better luck getting dates from forums, ha.

SO IT BEGINS

let's write songs :)

Game face, playa.

I havent spotted any ads. Adblock is hiding them maybe?

idk i haven't signed on for a couple days since the buyout

For like a week I have been getting "Sorry, we're having technical difficulties right now. Check back later." when I try to log in - anybody else?

OKC just sent me that email that basically says "hi you're better looking than most people on here so now we'll show you BETTER LOOKING MATCHES!"

Like wtf. Could you not show me these ANYWAY? :|

So they're letting you see the goods they keep in the back of the store, eh?

somewhere someone with a face like an arse is copping the dregs

Yeah, the other response is a bit disheartening to say the least...submit photo, no notification, but suddenly most of the attractive people are gone. So it goes, I guess.

TBH it hasnt changed the results, I am still getting a bunch of dbags and old pervs idgi?

Over the whole damn thing anyway, thnk I'll join a nunnery :(

i don't believe u
