I want names!

hey babay..your hot

Well, I think the whole problem with the "lines" thing is that it plays way too much into areas that are wholly dominated by cliches, platitudes, and all manner of boring blah.

I don't have any interest in that stuff, doesn't matter where it's coming from.

On the other hand, the "lines" mentality is very easily detected and serves as an instantaneous red flag -- "get out while the gettin' is good."

It's as prevalent as the scam e-mails that always end up with something along the lines of "I think we would be really good for each other. So come and see my naughty pictures on some yahho address." Instant Delete.

I think that I am as real as I can be....dishonesty is hurtful and I try not to be hurtful.

My heart is probably the only thing that is...

I'd say it's the line for the womens potty at the Monkey Bowl

I have the ship,you have the harbor.


what do you say we tie up for the night?

I'm still waiting for the first batch of recruits!

Seriously, though, re: "lines" -- I really don't know much about that end of it, since I get bored very quickly unless the conversation is actually going somewhere.

I do know that people who claim to want someone "intelligent" (in profiles, etc.) tend to run away screaming the minute someone intelligent actually shows up....it's just one of those lines you're "supposed to say," to avoid coming across as shallow or superficial.

Intelligence doesn't play well in that particular venue....
