Wait, I saw E.Buzz this morning on one of the main page articles - the Hey Paula one. I think he's fine.

@avclub-84ca205fe6bc691c41c3bfe5a2820a15:disqus Nevermind, figured it out! (copypasted the period as well) Should see something from me shortly.
@avclub-6a2ec3076bb494e5c64eb1a422d9fe3d:disqus Alright, what the hell; can't figure out how to link to my profile, but if you search excel522 on OkCupid, that's me. (Should be in Athens). Any and all advice appreciated.
@avclub-6a2ec3076bb494e5c64eb1a422d9fe3d:disqus Huh, really? I didn't know that. Interesting.
I just need food, internet, and a bed. I have no illusions that I'll be one of the rich and famous.
Question: tried to email you a link, but the email doesn't work. Should I be subbing something for the x's?
…Damn.
I hear you on the grasping thing - while I've never gone quite that dark on a first date, I always seem to bring up my issues with my parents and religion about an hour into the conversation, and I've thus far never had a second (My girlfriends tend to just fall into a relationship without us ever actually going…
Speaking as a user, I'm not against finding new friends on the site, but I'm highly unlikely to message you unless I'd at least consider asking you out. I feel like there's probably a decent site to be made that's just for meeting new people, but OkCupid probably isn't it.
@JudgeReinhold:disqus and @avclub-84ca205fe6bc691c41c3bfe5a2820a15:disqus Well, I'm not getting a lot of messages, but I think that's mainly because I'm a dude and that's how gender ratios work on OkCupid. But I get a decent amount of responses, even though they never seem to go anywhere. I should probably take it…
Advice Question:
I'm seriously considering a career in freelance web writing (entertainment and politics as focus). I've started writing for my college paper and it's incredibly fulfilling and most people seem to really like my work, so I'm thinking I could maybe make a career out of it. Does anyone around here work in…
Dammit, I wish I'd thought of that.
Question on the dumping stuff; I mention my (Very light but professionally diagnosed) Asperger's in my profile; do you think that's a bad thing? Seems like it would be nice to know upfront.
I feel like someone could very easily just search that block of text and find the profile, though.
Yeah, the only people who I've messaged with no picture were basically using the site as a slightly classier Craigslist. Which doesn't mean that that's a bad thing, but…
Anyone want to review my profile? I would love some feedback from nice people who aren't my close friends and don't mind being harsh.
Yeah, I'm 22 and I still feel a little squicky about dating 18-year-olds (most of whom are college freshmen in my area). I just feel like there's very little chance we'll have anything serious to discuss; I'm starting adult life and they've got a four-year buffer that holds them in place.
Hmmm…
I wouldn't tell her there's someone you like more; that's no good for anyone to hear, and it's not going to make things better. Is this someone that you see often, or someone who's only part of your life from dating? If it's the former, then I'd just say that this isn't right for you and wait a little while to…
Pretty sure that's the first face-shitting reference in primetime.
Take out "handsome" and I'm pretty sure that describes most AV Club dudes.
I've only seen The Mountain Goats twice in concert, but between Darnielle's crazily deep catalog and willingness to piss off an audience, I feel like he's a great answer for the list. My favorite moments were when he broke out songs that hadn't been recorded before - at my fist show, he did "You Were Cool" and…
