Damn, Prince William....

you're making my foot blush! *blush*

Yes, his handle was Prince William and he has a royal, umm, tongue. He can charm his princely ways out of me.  He's a good word flirt. 


That's online dating to you, you troll who lives under a rock and doesn't Facebook and tweet!

So here's to you sweet Mr. Troll. Time to move out of the mountain. Read, laugh, enjoy and be educated. Warning: irony and sarcasm masked in humor are not for the faint-headed.



"Online dating isn’t just for geeks anymore. No sir. Dorks and nerds are also hopping on board the e-train to crippling romantic disappointment. I’m not saying that only geeks, dorks and nerds use online dating, only that I’m one of the coolest people doing it, and I named my cat Amy Adams, so I can say ‘I love you Amy Adams’ each day when I wake up (I have…issues).


No, I’m kidding – almost everyone uses online dating these days. In fact, a cursory poll of people in my bedroom right now bedroom shows that 100% of people use online dating as a way to quell ‘the soul crushing thought that they’re going to die alone’ (their words, not mine).

Sites like RSVP, Match.com and others promise to find you love, or at least the digital equivalent. Now, I know what you’re thinking, and no, online dating isn’t as complicated as it seems. In fact, I can tell you all about it. After all, I’ve been using it for almost twenty four hours, so I’m the perfect person to give an introduction to its desperate world.


What’s a good name to use?

Be as creative as you want. Think of telling the great stories you’ll have of meeting your future spouse. He was named “Souljaboyplaya1986.” You were “dippinitlow19.” He messaged you drunk at 2 AM to enquire as to why your legs refused to cease.

Can you imagine how more romantic Gone With The Wind would be if it was set in the modern day and that sort of stuff happened? Clark Gable would be all “Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn, because I have your Facebook and I’ll know if you’re cheating on me.”"
