I'm waiting for this stupid laundry to finish so I'm on my laptop in the living room where someone's sleeping on the couch. I've had the screen brightness set to minimum (to be polite) and it's totally fine to see. Out of curiosity I turned it up to full brightness and it hurt my eyes really badly for a few seconds.

While you're waiting you can always get a bowl full of warm water, place the sleeping person's hand in it, and delight in the surprises and hilarity to which you shall awaken.

I hate how dishonest people are online when they're trying to date someone. I messed around with OKC and everyone I hooked up with (hooked up as in met- I didn't do anything romantic with any of them, as it turned out) was pretty dishonest. I never hid any of my physical imperfections- I could probably pose so my lazy eye doesn't show up by shooting only from one side... or I could photoshop away any skin blemishes or something. I don't, though. I understand that ladies are under a lot of societal pressure to maintain a certain appearance but holy shit the sheer volume of deceptiveness in these presentations serves to stagger me. One of the girls saw one of my pics (in which I'm rolling and looking 'ok', I'd say) and goes "oooh I bet you have a sixpack". I responded honestly "no, I used to be really fat, I have a decent bit of loose skin. It sucks. I'm working on it, though!" because hey, I don't want to waste her time. If abs are something she needs out of a dude then right now I'm not up to her standards I guess.
So I guess this is my roundabout way of saying I'm mad at people who misrepresent themselves to potential suitors. The dating thread is too slow for me to vent and feel heard.

A personal ad is a misrepresentation. Ideally, though, it should be an artful one.

every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

If you don't want to deal with people who misrepresent themselves why are you on the internet?
I mean, really, in addition to porn and bitching that's what the internet is FOR; you create a new personality and go be a lying asshole.

I guess that makes sense. Sigh. I wish their misrepresentations would be a little less liberal, though. Some fidelity to the source material would be great. It seems like on occasion the only link back to their profile is that they have a vagina (presumably).

The internet just strikes me as having the potential to be a very efficient method to scout partners. Like... an assembly line for interesting ladiez.

Remember when that girl said to me "Hey, do you want to come see my band play?" and I said "Yeah" and it turns out she played music for a fucking Bible group?

A friend of mine uses online dating sites and he has had experiences similar to what you describe.
I avoid online dating sites because, mostly, it feels like one is simply shopping for a mate...and I don't think that's how the process works. Shop for whores.
The last episode of season 2 of BSG was like a big fuck you.
I'm not sure I want to pick up season 3 now.
You do. And you will motherfucking love season 3.
Also, rogues with axes?
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YOU BLIZZARD! FUCK YOU RIGHT IN THE ASS!
I've been thinking about this a lot recently. I'm not photogenic. I look a lot better in person than I do in photos. And, sad to say, my girlfriend is the same way, and a few of the other people I've dated.
Now, I was recently dating a girl who was the opposite. Her photos obscured the imperfections in her face. It wasn't deliberate photoshopping, the camera was simply merciful to her.
Considering that an unaltered photograph is inherently a misrepresentation of each of us, would we be better off altering our photographs to look a little more like how we might in person?

Some of you know that I'm a little bit dyslexic right. It's nothing major just a bit of trouble with words with INFINITE FUCKING SYLLABLES they take a while to process. Most large words I know are the byproduct of habit and learning via constant repetition.
1/3 of this course, has a lecturer, who talks and writes, like this.
This new integrated cooperative dual identity framework allows for a successful refashioning of a common national identity of creating an environmentally sustainable future.
When reading I slow down substantially, or worse automatically skip without thinking, 9 words out of 23. Nearly 1/2 of the fucking sentence.
Now normally this is solved by listening to the lecturer since they usually write like this, but talk like sane people.
But not her oh no. She talks like this as well.
In her defence, she at least tries to explain things fully but mostly she just makes us dictate her opinions and I have to reword them. And really it boils down to her talking with different large words which doesn't help me. Shit sometimes she just keeps repeating whole stretches of the point, like eg repeating half of that sentence every time.
I can basically summarise five minutes of talking from her in a couple of lines.

In other news. I have rug burn on my toe, of all places. =(
And driving in the rain sucked, a lot.
Sex on carpet is a bad idea.
Ohh I hate that. yeah, don't do that.

I'll be Gimmi and you be Gundamina.

Fine, I'll be Gim Pak-Sun and you be Gun Si Nunu.
Alternately, do you have some sort of invisibility elixir?

It's actually kind of gross.
Which half?

And then, as I lay on my death bed an old man, they step forward with a pillow.

Okay, screw that. New plan. We'll rent a bucking bronco machine instead.

We ride it?
Wait, no. We set it up outside a college bar.
We'll make all our money back and then some. Do that for a few months then we will earn enough money to buy our way into that fabled spa.
Possibly Night, [chat].
