PANTS LOCK |
How not to get into someone's pants online: put your best foot forward... and right into your mouth. These are real "hello" messages and chat transcripts from dating sites. Submit your own, or get updates on Twitter. |
When I write your biography, I will title it, “The Resentful Heterosexual.” That’s just the working title. It may morph into something more risqué like, “I Hate Men, But I Love Penis!” Anyway, that’s the impression I get from your profile. I’ve been wrong before. Correct me if you can.
Two equally horrifying mental images:
1. A dude regularly sits at his computer with his brow furrowed in concentration, composing dating-site messages with his spine-cracked, dog-eared book on pick-up artist techniques open to the “negging” chapter.
2. Some asshole actually talks like this.
Honey, I’m not “somewhat” weird. I have two master’s degrees in bizarreness and not falling for your bullshit negging.
Naw, you don’t sound awkward. Controlling, passive-aggressive, resentful and entitled, but smooth.
Something something something living in a culture predicated on dudes thinking they can just waltz in and tell a women she’s doing it wrong with no regard to context, compassion or manners mumble mumble case in point good luck dying alone
I dunno, set some bossy fucker from the internet on fire?

Thanks, total stranger! I was so worried I was doing this internet thing wrong by writing about things I care about, hoping to catch the attention of people with common interests and the attention spans of adults. Instead I guess I’ll trim it down so I don’t accidentally bore jerks I wouldn’t date because they give rude, unsolicited advice to people who couldn’t give a shit about them.
kthxbai!
