match.com - Meet JeffI made this!
Those match.com adverts suck — they don't portray online "dating" like they should — so we've taken matters into our own hands and made our own. Starring Jon Blyth (or Log… Or Jeff).
Sorry. Carry on.

Well that was a let-down.
Anyone know where I can order a box of Swan Vestas?

Match.
There's something about their tube ads that really gets to me. For those who don't know, they're cloyingly soppy idealisations of things marketing men thought might sound romantic like, "I texted my friend the day before and he told me to wear any shirt but the pink one" or "I shaved three days before the date so I'd have the perfect amount of stubble."
They annoy me. Every time I look at one I want to replace it with something even remotely plausible, like say "I hid in the bathroom 15 minutes before she came round and had a quick one off the wrist so I wouldn't appear too desperate."
I thought I was alone in this until I one night I saw someone had taken a Sharpie to the one that says "I listened to her favourite album the night before our date to see why she liked it so much" and amended it so the LP was labelled Bros. It's the first time an online dating advert has made me think that somewhere, out there, is a kindred spirit.

He listened to her favourite album *on vinyl*.
That's super creepy.

"I snuck into her flat and stole some of her underwear so I could wear them on our first date."

I'm in the USA so I never saw the original ads, but that's brilliant regardless.

chuffing ace
btw, match caps the display of the count of the number of profiles you have rejected on accounts of them being mingers or whatever, to 10,000. FACT.
