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

Yes!!

Although part of that was "This short, wide-hipped, square-faced, pug-nosed chit is considered a raving beauty by an entire country. I must go there."

Clearly it is the homeland of my people.

when it picked up again in the 2000's.

If her plan was to pick out 2 or 3 good episodes a year and guide you through them, this sounds promising

If she thought you should work your way through every episode from every year including 2008, I'd be wary; maybe specify in yr profile next time

classic doctor who is sexier, because you can generally ignore the TV for two hours while you make out/have sex and then still catch the last half hour.

Is it usual to hug when you meet for a first date? I thought a handshake was standard?

depends how awkward you think the one-armed friend side hug is

They ought to be letting you know in advance if they're one-armed tbf

Most guys on the site add two arms to their number of arms tbh

girl, I'm one armed but three legged ; )

To clarify, I am not normally a person who hugs people upon meeting them under any circumstances, but The Internet led me to believe that this was standard practice for first dates.

perhaps best to play it safe and go for the chest bump.

The internet is a filthy liar.

I feel like I've gotten a fair number of first date hugs (e.g. the other night). I don't mind it but I can't imagine ever independently initiating it.

I hate it when people hug me on the first meeting. I don't know you. We are not buddies. I think a handshake is totes appropriate.

Then again I am also an ice-hearted robot but w/e.

the last person I dated off okc hugged me when we 1st met but we had been talking online for quite a while

fart into this plastic body bag and let her smell it?

A good idea 100 years ago, a good idea today.

his jar is filled with smoke, right?

Has someone already posted about those pheromone parties on this thread?

And arrows.

"But there was still plenty of chatter as beer-sipping singles turned up their noses at bags that smelled like hiker's sweat and their aunt's old carpet..."

I see what they did there.

since this seems to be the lonely singles hangout thread

this was a good read: http://www.avclub.com/articles/aziz-ansari-candid-about-love-elusive-sadly-ephem%2C92476/

Been chatting to a guy who I have several mutual friends with, and whos music is FUCKIN AWESOME and I am afraid i go all weak at le knees for musicians who do music I like HALP

xp this is otm & lol

“What happened with Lisa?” “I don’t know, she never responded back to that frog photo I texted her…” I actually heard someone say that.

lol yeah

I'm a little wary of leaning on pop psychology as much as he does since it can be a little overdeterminative/self-justifying

but I've been saying this for years:

The point of those jokes, though, is I just think it’s sad that the main places in our culture that we designate to meet new people are bars and nightclubs.

schools and work tbh

^places where people are forced to get to know you slowly

Well, that’s not a really strong pitch, “Come cook food with me and do nothing.” Maybe that’s my problem.

Come hang out in my vicinity while I do stuff! Yes, I begin to see why this never work out....

If you would know me, come live with me

Come live with me and be my love

But don't buy a pig in a poke either i spose

hanging out with someone while they cook or I cook or we both cook sounds pretty ideal to me, tbh

And we will all the...somethings...prove--wait, that doesn't even rhyme.

It did in 1590 give a guy a break.

if you know the other quote i tip my cap

Sadly, no. I'm not very smart you know.

I only know material that was included in the Golden Treasury of Poetry for Children in approx 1951.

Tsk

This is pretty much much all I'm looking for. I kind of think there's an impulse to be all "'On a typical Friday night I'm' at a bar partying spring break whooo!" such that wanting to stay at home and cook seems o_0

Or maybe not.

It will seem o_0 to people you aren't compatible with, but why worry about what those people find o_0? The trick is finding the people who are simpatico and :D with the things that you dig and vice versa.

What is this "Movie Match" thing? I never click on the Matches section and only noticed it now.

The results for it don't seem that much different from usual matches?

Met guy Ive been talking to I mentioned above, spent all day at an awesome music festival with him. It was really nice. Nothin happened but it was cool.

Why do I attract the conservatives?? They make up the majority of those who have contacted me or 5-starred me. My quiz answers make it very clear that I'm averse to their sort. Maybe they're trolling me.

Besides conservatism, the guy who 5-starred me last night had these attributes:

- Thinks fat people are gross and that fat is a sign of a weak character
- Talks a big game re KIP!! and ACCEPTANCE
- NO BISEXUALS EVER EWWWWWWW KILL KILL KILL
- Believes that a man who is into porn doesn't need a boyfriend
- Believes that a person w/ a mental illness is "not ready for the responsibilities of a relationship."

I wouldn't have spent 10 seconds reading about him, except that he 5-starred me. Me, a man w/ some fat parts and a fondness for abortion.
