OMG. The World War II Against Christmas that will begin when THOSE things turn red!

No, he can’t. His belly is too large.

Thank you for writing this and the When Can I say I’ll be Alone Forever article! People are continually sold the lie that if they just try A,B,C then everything will fall into place and they’ll meet someone. The reality is too scary. It’s hard, love is fucking mean. And really great people sometimes never partner up,…

It’s a conspiracy by the Carob Bean Queen. She wants us to have the same dream. You can find that dream on the Ocean, Billy.

Well, at least we’ll still have carob.

THANK YOU. Garbage chocolate is garbage.

You know what, people are capable of more than one interest and one emotion. I couldn’t care less about the Kardashians but let people enjoy what they enjoy. When the world is falling apart let people have the escapism of their choice. It doesn’t also mean they’re not very much aware of the state of the world. You…

Very simple way to stop this, if you can get the family on board. The next time they start, everyone should stop what they’re doing and watch, with occasional comments on what they’re doing as if you’re watching a football game.

In the past, no, because that would get their attention to my account. Since they turned off visitors earlier this year, yes always duh.

Informal poll: if you see someone you know on OKC, do you read their profile?

My ex-wife’s profile popped up once as someone I might be interested in. I audibly yelped and quickly passed on it. We actually get along well, now, but I didn’t wish to revisit old times.

oh yeah! 6-7 years on that site I got maybe 3 dates. I went on mostly for gawking. Very rarely messaged anyone, very rarely got messaged. It was simply fascinating to me to read the profiles. Totally different from the fronts put up on other forms of social media. I really hope some kind of study was done between…

I responded to the guy on OKC who eventually became my husband because he actually had thoughtful things to say about what I wrote in my profile. It’s sad to think that other people won’t have such easy access to that same experience.

I try not to if it’s an ex. Then I click the Hide button so fast & cross my fingers that they do the same.

Yes, and I cringe because it’s so embarrassing all over—no matter what they’ve written. That is why I never want to be recognizable on a dating app. Is there anywhere left, that isn’t Craisglist-shady, where you can meet people without revealing your name?

I liked OKCupid BECAUSE of things like longer profiles (IDK, is it weird to actually want to know what folks are about?), the questions, the not having to use my real name, the not having to use it on a smart phone (I got my first smartphone 2 years ago. I’m just not That Into Them. I prefer being on a computer). I…

Yes. Saw a friend of mine on there who is very happily married. I thought it was an old account but the photo and bio were recent. So...uh...yeah, I read all of it.
