So can the apt and roommate listings on craigslist. I was legitimately looking for a place for a friend. I couldn't find anything so I started sending him the ones from gay guys. I even said straight up this is just one I thought was funny not one you should call about. He was still mad at me for months.

Turns out exMarines have no sense of humor about such things. I wish I had saved the two I sent him. One wanted a guy to walk around naked all the time and the other had a hot tub nestled in the trees. I think he's forgiven me sorta I offered to check into jobs for him the other day and he didn't say no.

I wouldn't mess with the job thing even though I'm looking for jobs for him away from here. He should have to stay and suffer with me. Besides he needs to make more money than me so he can pay for stuff lol.

I look at Craig's list personals every now and then for a laugh. One guy described himself as "a little rough around the edges but not white trash". A few weekends later he added that by "rough around the edges" he meant "missing some teeth". He didn't say which teeth though...
Maybe I'll look on match.com again tonight and see if anyone new is up. No, I won't be contacting anyone, but it's fun to check it out.

I was perusing the other day and found a guy wearing my "Hi. You'll do." shirt in one of his pics. Match made in heaven? (I'd have to overlook my never again date a guy in a band rule though) Sadly, the same guys from when I was on a year ago are still there (my account still exists but has been hidden for the last year).

it is all fun and games until you find the profile of that really weird co-worker and then you can't get off the dating site fast enough

What cracks me up is the "matches" generated by the dating program that say something retarded like 'You're both the youngest child and you both enjoy a good ball game'. Hot damn! Obviously we're perfect for each other, is it too soon for me to book the wedding?!

Obviously we're perfect for each other, is it too soon for me to book the wedding?! Lol. The situation that popped into my head was the specific ball game. Like, you enjoy a good game of football and he enjoys "pocket pool". Can you tell I've read some creepy ads?

Rachets--I'll see an ad every now and then that says something like "I'm posting this for a friend. He's a good guy just had some trouble (or was wrongfully accused) and he'll be able to hang out in about 5 months. He'd love to have a good woman to write to. He can hang out yet, but soon. Also, he can't email, but he can write letters. Here is his address" Aaaaannnnnddddd..... the address just happens to be for the state pen.

I guess I'm surprised the prisons would even allow it. I can think of about a million ways for something like that to go wrong, everything from being scammed out of money to putting some naive person in harm's way. I think a lot of it has to do with *someone* deciding it would take away their human rights or something. Sorry, but my heart doesn't bleed for these guys--they're in prison for a reason.

My friend and I were looking at some of the pics on those sites to kill time one day and get a laugh. Some people should really put a lot more thought into their profile pics and bio's when advertising. A lot of them looked like serial killers. And then they wonder why they're still 'available'.

SL, the horrific profiles often make me think someone could earn some easy cash rewriting them as a side job. And maybe offer photo services as well - at least half of the pics I see are self-taken shots reflected from a bathroom mirror! Good grief, do these people not have at least one friend willing to take a photo if they don't already have one?

Hmmmm - a new career? Seriously though - when they post a profile pic that shows them weighing in at about 250+ lb with a beer gut, they really shouldn't describe themselves as "Fit" or "Athletic".

I'm considering reactivating due to one profile with just the right amount of quirkiness for me, some excerpts ... about me and what I'm looking for: "it would be great to meet someone thinking tolerance is smarter, just more human. appreciates smiles that travel to the eyes. maybe has strong thumbs to back herself up wrestling and then some...someone who can work with the difference of pinning and pining. i think i've a pretty reasoned outlook about relationships however its expressed: who doesn't want to steer clear from wax figures whatever the weather?" job: "i'd like to see occupation not under the lifestyle category... since i'm an elementary school teacher would i have to wear a care bear sweatshirt?" religion: "i'd prefer to have the center board flat out down, if it weren't for running aground." favorite things: "morning: coffee. night: beer. all day: water. beets, watercress, chocolate. it'd be hard to live on a planet without the color green." (OK, I don't understand the beet thing, but nobody's perfect )

Lol @ the beets.
Another favorite profile pic is when they are in it with a girl and the cropped the girl out.
Another thing I've noticed with the 250 lb guys SL mentioned, they usually want a thin girl.

And in her 20's --- even though they're in their mid 50's. They clearly don't see in the mirror what others see.

Go look at the men 70+...the screen names they choose are pretty strange I mean, you've really gotta wonder if the guy who calls himself "makemsquirt" gets a whole lotta response. Ew. And if I remember correctly, he didn't post a picture. And all those old dudes want to travel to faraway places with strange sounding names but list their income as "less than $25K". Really? Florida in the winter, of course. According to their profiles, they're authors, retired doctors, or retired professors. Of course, they're all "fit and toned", are gourmet cooks, love the symphony, play tennis/golf/bridge, adore their g'kids (some of whom are grown and live with Grampa). One of my favorites, though, was the guy who said that he likes to sit in his garage and drink beer with his buddies and "I never read." Judging by the way he wrote and spelled, he's barely literate, which would explain why he "never" reads. He can't! I'll bet he was an extra in "Deliverance". And then there are the guys who are between 75 and dead are are looking for a sweet young thang between the ages of 18-28. I didn't renew. From time to time I'll look at the site and see the same faces that were there last summer.

That pic reminds me of a line in "Best in Show". When the woman was asked what she had in common with her old husband she said "uh...we both like soup".

Makemsquirt lol . You never know though, maybe there is a young lady out there who is looking for a man three times her age and sits around the garage burping and farting with his beer buddies all day lol. It could be a match made in heaven!

A guy that is more mature than his chronological age would fix that.

Here are two interesting ones I found on Craig's list recently.... "So I'm single at the moment, and I'm new to the "internet dating" scene. I'm not saying I'm a stud or anything, but I don't need the internet for a date (I think some girls think that only guys who are desperate do this). What brings me here is that I am looking for a specific type of girl. I dated this girl last year whom i can't get out of my mind. She did this sensual act of humping pillows to get herself off. So if you happen to read this, and happen to partake in this activity, hit me up, and let's chat ;-). I'm not a perv or weirdo or anything, let's face it all the guys you have been with probably had a fetish of some sort or wanted you to do something particularly kinky for them, right?" and "Hi, I'm having problems finding a woman, who would be up for this. Are there really no women, who would enjoy this? I hope to find YOU this time. I'm looking to do your house work (vacuum, do your dishes, etc.), fix your computer or help you around the house with whatever you need...for free. What's the catch, you ask? I would love to be able to do these things around your house while you hover nude or semi-nude around me. No touching / contact is expected on my part, but this fantasy has been a dream of mine for a while. We can talk about the details of this. Maybe you'll be more comfortable if I was in some state of undress as well for this, etc. Let's discuss." The second one has been on Craigs list many times... I guess no takers? If you want some good laughs, go for the CL missed connections.... Those are hilarious. I've seen a few from guys who were interested in women that they had seen at adult stores.... "email me and tell me what I was buying.."

LMAO! I forgot about the "missed connections" section. My area is too small, it never has anything there, but if I look in other sections of the state, wow. Those places are freaky.
