Must be a lot of outdoorsy camping type people in CO, no? Can't really see you and them being each others things, you know?

On the other hand you seem to find way more eclectic group of people to hang with on a regular basis than I would expect out of CO so idk.
― (✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Tuesday, 24 July 2012 17:51 (eleven years ago) link
Majority of people are outdoorsy hiking camping snowboarding people with a oh-so-tiny hipster edge.
Maybe I need to import a boyfriend from the midwest.

your workplace has an office here, iirc
― hot sauce delivery device (mh), Tuesday, 24 July 2012 17:53 (eleven years ago) link
Yep. We do. We have a small one in chicago, too. But part of my job relies on a huge office wherein people are semi clueless so not sure how it'd translate to a smaller place.

what is the etiquette for when you messaging someone and they don't get back to you? can they block you? i was thinking of messaging someone again but if they can't block me i don't want to be creepo harasser

also it only took 24 hrs for the well of cute matches above 70% to run dry, wtf okcupid
― the late great, Tuesday, 24 July 2012 19:21 (eleven years ago) link
they can block you if they find you creepy. i take a while to return messages, a lot of the time.
imo, a second message (after some elapsed time) doesn't seem creepy. a third seems a bit much. (this guy msged me a third time about how lonely he was and WOW is that not a motivation to respond)
― JuliaA, Tuesday, 24 July 2012 19:27 (eleven years ago) link
yeah i wouldn't stoop to a third

I am so confused now.
For the record, I am a boy. Although I am flattered to be thought of as a nice lesbian. Honestly, I thought it was obvious I was a boy from the way I write.
Haz, apologies for my flippancy. I am an equal-op dater w/r/t height, but I recently saw a guy's profile where he spent most of it complaining about and mocking women who specify their pref for taller men blah blah. I hadn't realized it was such a thing on okc cos I don't read other women's profiles much but maybe it is?
No, don't apologize! This is the ILXOR OKC backstage area so you should be able to vent as you like. A fair number of women do specify they're looking for tall men (and hair preferences are generally specified too) and while I find it somewhat crass, it's also well within the bounds of acceptable dating web site behavior. Maybe that guy's had a hard time of it.
Also 38 is close to my age! Totally age-appropriate. What are you doing on Thursday?
I actually have a date Thursday! At least I think it is. But I peeked at your profile and you are absolutely crushworthy.

I considered using a photo of me by the giant stone heads on Easter Island, but it somehow seemed like showing off. Of course I am standing there under a red/pink umbrella looking goofy, so the manliness is questionable.
― the girl from spirea x (f. hazel), Tuesday, 24 July 2012 21:00 (eleven years ago) link
WHAT?? HAIR COLOR? And here I thought I was being unfairly narrow-minded about beards--at least you can shave those off.

spoiler: Easter Island heads are actually entire bodies, as a couple have now been excavated
― hot sauce delivery device (mh), Tuesday, 24 July 2012 21:06 (eleven years ago) link
More hair length and approval/disapproval of facial hair, but yeah.

oh, you were
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 24 July 2012 21:11 (eleven years ago) link
oh, they knew they had bodies... there's hundreds of them all over the island with above-ground bodies. the ones in rano raraku they're excavating lately had the body part buried under earth, so the fine carving details were preserved. the ones exposed to sea air are pretty eroded.
― the girl from spirea x (f. hazel), Tuesday, 24 July 2012 21:16 (eleven years ago) link
I think it's a public misconception due to portrayals that they're just heads?
― hot sauce delivery device (mh), Tuesday, 24 July 2012 21:18 (eleven years ago) link
i can't believe you've been to easter island! i mean i believe you, but so jeal!
― nicest bitch of poster (La Lechera), Tuesday, 24 July 2012 21:20 (eleven years ago) link
if you just see the pictures of the ones at rano raraku (the part of the island where they actually carved the things) then they are just heads, because over time the bodies have been covered by earth. this area is more heavily photographed, because frankly, it looks totally bizarre and magical. all over the rest of the island there are rows of full-body moai on stone platforms called ahu, mostly by the coast. by the time the europeans arrived, the moai were mostly all knocked down, however. it's only since the 50s (IIRC) that various folks have reconstructed the ahu platforms.

Does OKC still divide ugly people from attractive people? Because I still think I got thrown into the ugly pool.

Just got another message, this time from a guy in California.
I just REPEL Denver dudes apparently!

I think I didn't participate enough in the site and got thrown to the ugly pool, too. idk

I am now considering changing my location to Hanga Roa, Easter Island to see if I can find a match there (you'd like it, La Lechera... you can practice your Spanish there!).

que lindo!

laurel we're an 81% match!!
― the late great, Tuesday, 24 July 2012 21:42 (eleven years ago) link
I don't even look at people that are less than 80% tbh. I figure somewhere along the line they answered that men should be the heads of their households, or that creatonism should be taught in schools, or something.
― check the name, no caps, boom, i'm (Laurel), Tuesday, 24 July 2012 21:45 (eleven years ago) link

JUST KIDDING! Some people's answers are a mystery to me, though.
xp haha like that
I like expanding the search worldwide and finding my 99% match who lives in Glasgow and imagine how perfect everything would be. well, except for the 1% of the time we would fight because I couldn't understand what she was saying.
