Yuppie, who?

Well hello there internet world,

      I hope everyone is doing well on this lovely Monday, wherever you are reading this from. It's a nice mid 70's day in Southern California :)

      Anyways, I just wanted to throw a quick post at you. I'm working on a bigger "project" that will (hopefully) be posted by the end of the week.


      Today I open my mailbox to a message from someone who sent me a nice 2 word message...
I think he meant *sell

...Now I am assuming he is referring to my preference in white men. As I said before, I'm use to the insults, but come on now! At least when you're insulting me, use the correct form of the word! 


Typically when I receive messages like that I ignore them, but I felt an obligation to correct his word choice. He had this to say...

"Yuppie": An arrogant (usually white) well put together young urban professional. You will likely find them wearing Gucci and Prada and bragging about their large bank account.
      Let's just break this down a bit. The only thing Gucci or high priced items I own are 2 small bottles of perfume that I bought on SALE at Ross, my bank account has been in the negative for almost three weeks now and I am an after-school tutor. So points "DeNutt" for profiling me, when's the wedding!?!

     Is it sad that I actually get excited when I receive a message that has little to no grammatical or spelling mistakes, with correct puncuation and words that are above the remedial high school level? If that makes me a yuppie, then damn it, bring it on! 

Here's a toast to myself and all of my fellow educated women out there! 
Cheers!

Till next time!

First Impression Fail

Hello daters!

First impressions are everything.
How many times has this happened to you?
You get an e-mail that someone has "checked you out" or "messaged" you or clicked the "Meet Me" option.
Then you get curious/excited and click the hyperlink to his profile.
THEN...you get to said destination, read through it; and it's just eh, nothing special or magical, just...meh.
This happens all to often to me. Over the years I have developed a particular annoyance to certain things on men's profiles. This post is dedicated to just a couple of them.

1. Where have we heard that from?

      Does this sound familiar?  "My friends say I have an easy-going personality, I workout, listen to music, watch movies and just chill.." Yup that sure does sound familiar! That's because that's what's written on 70% of profiles on any online dating website whether it is a free or paid site.
Here is how I translate this generic disaster:
"My friend's say I have an easy-going personality"-- I'm socially awkward, please message me! 
"I workout" -- Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, YEA! Oh LMFAO you're one funny group! 
"Listen to music"-- Going to a Nickelback concert this weekend, join me? 
"Watch movies" -- Redbox and I are on a first name basis. 
"Just Chill" -- I'm unemployed, no car with only a high school education and no prospects at a future. I can only afford to "chill". 
2. Theatrics

      Ladies, we have a terrible reputation of being over the top. Yea ok, maybe we over react in a few inappropriate situations. Here is what I have to say about that...get the f**k over it fellas. Blame evolution for the unfortunate combination of hormones that swirl inside of us! Seriously though, guys who feel the need to say "NO DRAMA" in bold letters, all caps and surrounded with an abundance of punctuation, annoy me. The average woman does not live their life like the "Bad Girl's Club" television show. We HATE drama just as much as you guys. Not to mention, do you think a woman is going to read your warning and think, "Well shit, I do love to create drama, so I guess this guy is not for me, he clearly is not into that kind of thing". Yea, no. We don't do that.

3. Under & Over Confidence

      Time and time again science has told the dating world that woman like a man with confidence. Even a hot girl will go for an average looking guy if he is confident in his own skin. However, the catch is not to be OVER confident. We do not respond well to things like:
"Women call me a god, they kiss the ground I walk on. Oh and if you're not a Victoria Secret model, a size 2 with D tits, do not bother messaging me" 
Or
"Women intimidate me 90% of the time. I guess I am a fun guy to be around. Not sure what I want from here, but I'm not expecting much of anything anyways. 
Try to avoid those kind of things in your profiles guys. We want to believe that you're a good man. Who has redeemable qualities like taking care of puppies or helping a blind woman across the street. Not that you're a Jersey Shore wannabe who wants to knock up a Snookie look-a-like or hide behind your Star Trek comic book collection and action figures.
*Note: A comic book or action figure collection is bad ass...JUST don't be ashamed about it, embrace your interests because, NERDS RULE!*
Seriously, I do. 



Till next time! Happy Hunting!

Carry-on Bag

It's a lazy Saturday afternoon as it rains and storms in beautiful Southern California. So what is someone to do on a day like this? Oh you know, talk to random people online about nothing at all. Really, the guys online are annoying me. So to make my life more enjoyable I like to mess with guys who think they are spitting the best game they have at me, when all they're doing is making a mess.

Anyways, this guy asks...
"You into packing white guy?"
I respond...
"As long as it fits into my carry-on bag. Luggage fees are outrages these days!"
He left shortly after that...

Come on fellas! Making sexual advances is not the way into a woman's heart. Maybe it is for an immature little girl who has yet to find her self-respect, but not for this woman.

As Jay-Z so famously put it..."On to The Next One"!

Ha! Get it? ;) 


TA-TA FOR NOW! :)
