This guy needs to attend On and On ANON.

I was supposed to meet this guy (not from JSH) on Friday, but I got lost from the stupid directions he gave me and never wound up meeting him that day. On Saturday, I got to drive way over to the other side of the moon again, get lost again, and then when I finally found the place I got to watch him throw back Bacardi and Cokes while he droned on and on and on.

Here's what I've learned so far: He's very comfortable with who he is and doesn't need to change for anyone. He had back surgery about 2 years ago. He's a welder, contractor, jack-of-all trades. The AC is out in his car, but he's mechanically inclined. He doesn't believe the hype of global warming or that a bottle of hairspray destroyed the ozone layer (apparently the government did that). He has two older brothers, Bob and Jimmy (or Jamie his sister - that's a long story). He's always doing things for others; just wants to make them happy. He's always happy himself.

He likes Bud Light in bottles. He will only drink it out of cans at Ed's house or at the lake. He wore glasses as a child and, as a result, he now has perfect eyesight without them. He wanted to know if I knew about the new smoking laws in Snotsdale. When I didn't, he said "isn't that amazing? I know more about the law than a paralegal." He doesn't read or listen to the news. His car is a 1995 Z28 that he owes nothing on. He has a friend he calls Big Dumb Brian. He doesn't wear a watch but he's always early. He likes olives but doesn't really care for pimentoes (or maybe it's the other way around). He doesn't believe the area he lives (or where I live for that matter) is technically the desert. There are farms and things growing. He's never had a yellow garden.

He used to roll his own cigarettes and could teach the company who make mine a thing or two. He smokes Marlboro Lights 100s and pays $28/carton online. He used to smoke three packs a day when he had his company but now is down to about one. He doesn't need a cell phone for emergencies, because everyone who matters knows where he's at and can call him there. Just the other day his car broke down and his Mom just happened to drive by and see him. He has a brother Bob (the crazy one of the family) age 43 or 44, living in Canada (some place that starts with an "A"). For a while, he only drove a motorcycle, but decided he needed something with doors. He used to have a John Wayne collector's item rifle that he got from his Dad.

I had to sit and listen to all this **** STONE COLD SOBER. When I got home, I barely shut the door before I ran to the fridge for a beer.

I'm sorry. So he wasn't at all interested in any of your own life stories?




But then again at least you had a date.

Next time I'm in your area remind me to give you a hug.

The only time he was interested in anything I had to say was when he asked me if he had adequately portrayed himself in his profile and if I was happy, mad, glad, or sad when I met him.

I could write about that much on my online bow...after THREE MONTHS of long talks!!!

But but but his picture was so cute!!

And if he's sooo mechanically inclined why hasn't he fixed his air conditioning??

Must have been amazing to watch him drink and talk at the same time...

I love listening to men drone on and on about themselves.

And you are seeing him again Saturday, right?

Multiple choice date topics...I'll remember that one.

I'm sorry to hear that. It seems he and his ego already have a string relationship going.

Wow. Sorry you had to go through all of that.

Pooor you!! And here I am going out with a guy I met[not on here]with my sis on Friday for fireworks...Wish me luck

I never thought of it that way. I'm sure he worded it that way to keep my input at a minimum.

I was wondering about the AC thing myself. And NO I am NOT seeing him again on Saturday night. Unless he drives over to my neck of the woods and buys me 18 beers and wears a muzzle.

Fireworks with the guy or a display?

Good luck!!

Please tell me he picked up the tab...

Yes, it was all he could do to pay for my one COKE. Otherwise, it wouldn't be "proper."

I am so sorry to hear that. I am going to contact the head president of the Men "R" Us and see about this matter. In the mean time can I interest you in a refund or an exchange? I can see if we have something better for you at no extra charge. I am terribly sorry this has occurred. Sometimes, our products are defective.

Well I think you and your sexy smile can just laugh and forget about him!!

Thanks.

Please do whatever you can to remedy this situation and to make sure it doesn't happen to anyone else. Maybe a date with a random stranger as an exchange?

Sorry but if he was drinking that much...rude or not, I would have gotten up and told him that I needed to go.
