This is a question Personal Ads

A somewhat shocked friend writes, "I did not realise it is considered de rigeur to send a cock shot with the first email."

Welcome to the world of personal ads. How deep down the rabbit hole have you gone?

Rifling a PO Box
In the pre-interweb '80s, I was working for a certain newspaper. One of the circulation tactics of the day was to introduce a lonely hearts page rather than just the regular personals. It was a great source of entertainment for us "kids" reading the ads... but it was even more fun sneakily reading the replies! Anyway, a mate of mine actually had access to the PO BOX attached to each advert... and he diverted all legit replies to a particular girl's advert and substituted it with his own. Needless to say he got the gig. She was odd in two ways:

1. She pulled her sweater up over her nose when she was in public.
2. Concealed a large knife under her pillow.

On an unrelated incidident a few years later, I was on the night-shift running a long winded multi-reel-tape-back-up one Saturday night when I was interupted by an Executive and the Police. Apparently one of these lonely hearts had been "done in" and I had to bring systems back on line immediately so they could get some details....

Both 3rd party experiences, but enough to put me off being involved with the concept.

It's all gone too far!!!
So we already know each other's deepest darkest secrets, desires and most embarrassing moments. We now know what we all look like.

What next? Our real names?

hmmmm

I succumbed...
...to the madness.

Here's me: www.hotornot.com/r/?eid=KESZK8E&key=THK

I put that photo on when I was 18 it seems - 5 years ago. I'm actually 17 in the photo. How the hell could my account still exist after 5 years?! Fucking good rating though ;-p

Agreed, Kroney
It's been bubbling under for a while now.
As for my current rating of 4.6 with minimal voting, apparently that means i'm hotter than 40% of men. Christ there must be some munters...

Hmm, gotta come up with a personal ads post now . . . well, there was the one time at uni that I posted a personal ad over the summer and ended up living next to one of the people who responded in the (coed) dorm after they decided they didn't want anything more to do with me--that was a bit weird.

Arrr, me hearties
We been pirate speaking all day, arrrrr. Some landlubbers working in the poop deck have had enough. So we do it more, arrrrrrr. Avast me beauties. Hoist the mainsail and pass me an albatross........
(to keep on topic, I have never been on an internet dating site having been with the same man since I was 17 - before internet existed - boring I know - and I don't wish to upload to HoN because I just KNOW I'll blow the competition away!!);-)
Actually, what would most of these people do today without the internet - whatever happened to going out and actually, physicaly meeting somebody? Do you actually think you'll do better online? By the sounds of most of these stories - nope. Join a badmington club or something people!

So shiver me timbers, me beauties, and prepare to be boarded! Arrrr! Surrender the booty! Show us yer treasure chests!

Comic Geek Love
I have yet to go on a date with someone I met on the internet. Here's why.

I used to work at a comic book store on the weekends (a dangerous enough place for any unaccompanied female), and soon after starting, developed a following of comic fanboys.

One in particular, "Ted", was very attached to me. Ted asked me if he could add me on MySpace, and in the name of keeping peace, I said yes.
When I signed on to MySpace later that day, I saw Ted's friend request and clicked the link to his profile.

Wow. The picture of the guy on the profile was tall, muscular, handsome, in short, everything Ted was not. Ted was short, bordering on obese, and balding.
Profile Ted was into kayaking, hiking, and wokring out.
Real Ted spent at least two whole days a week at the comic book store, gossiping about the latest issue of X-Men or griping about the inaccuracies in the latest Batman movie.

This convinced me that I should never, EVER date someone I met online. God only knows what they're like in real life.

HoN vs QOTW
Sorry that it's been annoying some folk- but it does fit in with the QOTW indirectly, and it's a lot of fun to see what the other people on here look like.

If you don't like it, simply scan through the pages and look for the longer posts- they're generally the ones pertaining to the original question.

Me, I'm not going to complain or praise the HoN thing- it's been a lot of fun to see everyone's faces, but I can see where some wouldn't like it. It's certainly been distracting.

How about it, O Powers That Be? Can we have a separate board or question to pertain to the HoN thing until it burns itself out?

May as well join in with the HoN posts

What the fuck is with all this "Hot or not" shite?
I come here to read some ammusing stories, not read about someone bitching over their ratings on some other fucking website.
Try the links board if you want to talk about some shitty web sight.
P.S. Maybe some of you people got rated as a one becuase YOU ARE FUCKING UGLY, despite what you think of yourself and what your mum tells you when she tucks you into bed.
Edit: If you feel like giving me a good ol' "internet flaming" over my statement, feel free to gaz me instead of cluttering up the QOTW with more pointless dribble as one profoundly retarded individual already has.

feckit
I don't have a story for this week as I've never had to *cough* stoop so low *cough* erm, sign up for anything like that as I love my missus and have done for many a fair year.

Anyway, thought I'd join in with ego massaging.
This is me dressed as a pirate:-

Everyone should get to dress as a pirate now and then ;)

*edit* wow, some of you girls are lovely ;)

*edit the 2nd* Sorry, I meant all of you girls are lovely (don't want to be accused of being an image facist or anything)

My Theory
It's all Frank Spencer's fault. HE has built a complicated program that votes for anyone that isnt him and gives them a 1.

For his own photos, the program votes him a 9.

It's a theory, sure. but its one that Ive given quite a bit of thought to...well, at least 10 minutes. Anything to prove I am not a 1.

Sic Semper Tyrannis! (and Frank Spencer too!)

Inferior...
Is how I feel right now.

Below the top 100 on HoN is a glass ceiling designed specifically to keep me out of it, and I can only gaze upon the top 10 with admiration. You beautiful b3tan bastards!

On topic, while slighty drunk after another unsuccessful night out in town, I did once join one of many disreputable dating/swinging/get an easy shag off a 30 stone Doncaster housewife in a fit of desperation.

I still get emails to 'badboy_stud', and my inbox has never recovered from the spam.

The shame....

edit - rate my baby face. Linky.
