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

I can't believe you got a date from okc without going there and getting your picture taken.

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

how does that work?

Just got another message, this time from a guy in California.

I just REPEL Denver dudes apparently!

(Sorry I keep BANGING ON about this, it's just kinda nuts to me at this point)

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

this is all theoretical due to the fact I mothballed it all but I just love this thread so much

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!!

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.

or they don't fill out the questions ^_^

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.

yeah i met a nice girl from glasgow one time and the only thing i could make out was that she thought a lot of stuff fookin' pants

*swoon*

"s' fookin pants man"

first thing i remember whenever i think of her

hahahaha

95% match

Just for shits and gigs I am looking at dudes in Chicago and they are 200% better seeming than the dudes here. There's barely any photos of dudes atop mountains citing their love of the outdoors. <3 <3

i almost never get messages on this anymore, or message anyone. the last person i messaged had a wilhelm reich book in his favorites section and i wrote him about my trip to orgonon and was really surprised he didn't reply!

like...i've sat in an orgone accumulator. i bet he didn't even consider what that implies about my orgiastic potency!

did you okcupid william s burroughs?

i posted a picture of myself at big sur, should i take it down :(

seems like if you live in ca but don't post a pic of yourself in nature yr doing it wrong

my pics are a couple years old now and suck -- i'm rarely in photo-taking situations anymore, it seems

will somebody look @ my profile and give me helpful feedback on getting date for friday w/ hot yoga girl and/or hot barista

i have a feeling this is might be like applying for work on craigslist tho, these girls are probably getting bombarded 82% match or no

i'll look at it if you like, webmail me.

(and yes, hot girls probably getting bombarded)

i'll just throw it out to the teeming hordes

9044za

^ that's backwards

something tells me it is not a coincidence i am distracting myself from resumes and cover letters with this "service"

And she's backed out, serves me right for talking about a date in advance.

xp we are only 84% matches

is the earth *really* bigger than the sun?

pretty good profile, but I don't get a sense of "voice" about you. Is that a lame criticism??! I guess I really look for that. But maybe it's just me.

not just you, i look for that too.

only 84% ? but that's as high w/ people in my area so far (excepting my ex's current boss)

that is my voice, i'm quiet and polite :-D

xp it looks bigger from where i'm sitting

can anybody recommend the relevant anne lamotte article about writing voice

I think all the percents are kind of a red herring? IDK I skipped half the questions, which seems to be about the percentage they asked about w33d

So far my favorite experience through this site was meeting a Russian woman with an absolutely acid sense of humor who informed me after 5 minutes that this wasn't a date and that she was just bored.

We talked about Tarkovsky for 40 minutes and she left.

Also skipped all the stupid MENSA type questions, and the politics ones, I think I'm deliberately doing this whole site wrongs.

that sounds like a well spent 45 minutes imo

the questions mainly seem to be about sifting people who like work vs people who like college and hipsters vs squares

and bored vs serious vs feeling the clock

maybe i will submit these ideas as questions

Anyone else read "I love to travel" with a ton of vacation photos as "You should be able to afford to keep up with me", or is it just me?

family $$$, student travel or careerist imo

i should add to my profile, "road trip experience is a must, girls w tents will be given serious consideration"

ex took the tent :-(

I live in the most heavily educated city in the country, so I'm guessing its both student travel and family $. I've sworn off the grad students, I've got an aversion to them now.

"Oh you've spent the last 3 years writing grant proposals? How fascinating."

Where is that? DC?

Madison, WI, it's its own little world.

Sounds a lot like Boulder.
