Meanwhile, back at the QOTW...
Whoa. The QOTW seems to have moved on somewhat. So I'm going to be all daring and post what I was going to post anyway. Which is that the world seems to have done much worse for me than the Intertubes. I met the lovely Mrs. God on a web dating site. She described herself as looking like a princess. Specifically, Princess Fiona from Shrek 2. Now, of course, I'd always admired Princess Fiona, so I thought we could meet. And so we did, almost two and a half years ago. I proposed on Talk Like A Pirate day last year, she accepted, and we're now together. And I'm not posting a hotornot photo, as I look more like the donkey from Shrek 2. No cock shots happened during the nurturing of our romance, although there was quite a lot of naughty conversation, much of which is archived on her computer. Some details have been posted on b3ta, of course.

The parade of nutters, lunatics, and the frankly hideous, I met in real life. So, and not because she namechecked me, follow acrenne's advice. It's about getting out, meeting some people, and seeing what happens next. But Internet dating does work (as long as you avoid the basic mistake of going out with an Internet).
