Here’s one for the DON’T list. Imagine seeing a profile on an online dating site. And imagine you thought you might like to meet that person. Then imagine sending the following email.
Can you take me to the bakery? Because, I want a Cutie pie like you!
You can’t imagine it can you? Why? Because it’s stupid. And it won’t get you a date. It will only get you deleted.
PS – Lack of greeting or signature and random capitalization only add to the lack of charm.

Are we sure he wasn’t trying that at a local bar?? LOL!
How cheezy can you get?
Delete
DELETE!!!!
Oooof, if he did that at a bar I would love to see what happens. Poor poor clueless and deleted dude.

I thought so. My friends are highly amused as well.

Here is a few good ones, as in cheezy, that tried to get past me… exchanging emails and this guy wanted to know if I would be on-line later because he needed to run to home depot to buy a broom and sweep me off my feet! and this one: I just moved you to the top of my “to do” list!
Remember ladies, we can’t fix stupid!
Ha! So true! You can never fix stupid.

I am now more stupidery for having read that…
You should go yell at that guy for lowering your IQ!
June 28, 2008 at 7:31 pm
I should but there’s only so much of your IQ you can afford to lose. I might catch a severe case of stupid from him were I to do so
This is a valid point.

I think it might be possible that the person who wrote said email to you, came up to me in a bar once and told me my dimples were so cute, he’d like to set up camp in them.
Uhhh…right.
Offering to camp in various body parts as a pickup line is just creepy. Not just bad…. creepy.

Now you know what kind of dudes I attract and creepy is perhaps the nicest word I can think to describe most of them.
I feel your pain, trust me. We will swap stories sometime.
