Personals Drama: In my bedroom one will find...

Posted by airheadgenius

What's up with that question anyway? Does it set the tone for the profile? A chance to throw out just how alternative and edgy you are?

Why do so many men say that they have 800 thread count sheets? Is that really important to chicks?



I mean, is that really going to be the clincher? Like - to your BFF - "honey, I wasn't going to return his email, but then I read his profile and he has - and you are not going to believe it - three billion thread count sheets!"

Anything above 400 thread count is meaningless anyway. Trust me on this - I don't have a BSc in Textile Technology for nothing. Almost nothing at this point in time, but not absolutely nothing.

I care that you've got sheets. I care if you've washed them in the last week or so. I care if another chick has been on them within the last 24 hours, but beyond that, you can relax. (Actually, I do kinda like Dwell sheets, but that's because I am a design whore)

I have 8 thread count sheets.
Yep, I'm sleeping on burlap. It's this season's big thing ya know - burlap is the new Egyptian.

 

 Today's is an anonymous knob. He looks like a shaved ape.

I think you should start a new personals ad where the only info provided is photos- at least three,and a geographical radius within which the person is willing to meet people. the whole profile thing is just window dressing anyway.  i bet you'd agree to a date with him without reading whatever ape-like shit he wrote as answers to profile questions. your burlap sack or mine, Jane?

OUR BLOGGERS

FishnetsAndLight

Professional Dominatrix, lapsed English major and token black chick extraordinaire. I'm also a great big perv. Bend over.

Location:New York, New York
Looking for: Those who aren't too afraid.

Zeitgeisty

I'm an existentialist trapped in the body of a rational humanist. I've got a penchant for misanthropy and a flair for the obvious. I'm quick with a joke or a light up your smoke, but there's someplace that I'd rather be. I'm Zeitgeisty, pleased to meet me I'm sure.

Location: Somewhere on the isle of Manhattan...
Looking for: A shining good deed in a weary world...

Airheadgenius

I am a fish out of water - an opinionated cheeky smiling English chick in a land of larger than life Americans. I don't understand the culture. I don't understand asking if we're exclusive. I don't understand this weird practice of decapitating penises. Some days I am definitely MILF material. Other days I feel more like the material on the inside of yer grannys' handbag.

Location: Brooklyn
Looking for: A stunning socialist with a propensity to pick winning lottery numbers

amboabe

I'm a smart ass writer who'll argue your ear off, hold your hand close, and tell you the truth whenever. I'm a fool and a hero, a confessional soul, and lover of life in every conceivably absurd way that it can come. I also paint my toenails.

Location: San Francisco
Looking for: A sail, not an anchor.

spjv840

Slightly neurotic, over-analyzing girl..err, woman, with too much charm for the average person to handle. Has a fondness for red wine, cheap beer and a good time.

Location: The Igloo, Canada
Looking for: Nothing mediocre
