^sounds like a good description of an internet date to me...

No. I had friends meet through an ordinary dating service though, and it worked out well for them (even if they did tell every-one that they met at the tennis club).

No, though I knew of my spouse via a local dial-up message board prior to meeting him. Specifically, all that had registered was that he liked "Desperadoes Under the Eaves" as much as I do, and had a girlfriend. I'm not sure that portended the match it turned out to be, but there you have it.

wow. You guys have all been so lucky !

3 years ago:

-got dumped

-subscribed to a free online Supermarket of the SoulMate^TM to try to "speed the healing process"

-got a date with a girl who looked "hott" in 2D

-met her during the daytime and BARELY RECOGNIZED the person in the picture (the passage from 2D -> 3D was real tricky)

-spent an uncomfortable moment trying to figure out how to tell her that I was not interested without hurting her feelings

-went home feeling approximately twice as lonely as I had felt before the experience

-unsubscribed


definitely not one of the highlights of my life :rolleyes:

^:D

If you were a salad dressing, what kind would you be?

Homemade vinaigrette, whisk in an extra grind of pepper.

straight up olive oil and poivre moulu 5 baies (the kind of pepper that comes in 5 different colored berries)

molotovo strem

Imagine my suprise at reading this thread over what turned out to be a chopped apple, walnut, and TIP salad.

I'm hoping to have Trisherina at dinner.

balsamic vinaigrette.

honey and mustard

toasted sesame oil
