Phonetic
Last night I made a light shrimp and pasta dinner with a delicate Chardonnay. I actually drank a glass with my dinner. It's not that I don't like wine. I just don't love wine. Perhaps I am flawed. It seems everyone in my age group and a little older here in California just Love their wine and Harley's. I like motorcycles. I am not a, 'Ohhhh, he has a Harley, I must land that Man!' I say this because, well, I hear something along those lines a lot.
So, I drank some wine last night. Wine has a way of relaxing me instantly. In fact, I get a little too relaxed. It is nearly a date-rape kind of relaxed. I am usually very tired after I drink wine.
I drank some wine last night and I wasn't Torchwood, but it was on and doing that 'next episode in 20 seconds' thing that I love, and I was online.
I, with wine-induced-impulsiveness, put myself on a dating site.
First impression... not as horrible as I expected, yet. And...some guys are just painfully Dumb.
One guy is the (essentially) one word messager.
Hello.
~Hello.
Good?
My name is Eu.
(after a rather long delay I reply)
~Is that Phonetic?
(he waited a while)
What does that mean?
Yes, he, did.
I explained it to him.
Yes (he replied) It means strength.
(I looked it up and found no reference to strength but it is a symbol on the periodic table)
~What language is your name in? I looked it up. I found it means Well, Good in the Greek. It is also the symbol for the chemical element europium. So is your name pronounced Ew?
Am I a Bitch for finding this entertaining? I am. I am sort of being a Bitch.
I have had inboxes that say:
Daaaaaamn!
Gorgeous :)
Hi
Hello
Really? Is this why I haven't been approached in Real Life?
I think three men were able to form a coherent sentence.
One guy had the nerve to tell me I wrote a lot of Words. I check his profile. I'd almost like to copy and post it here. I'm wordy?!!? He went on an on revealing what sarcastic woman hater he was.
It's fascinating.
For now I like that I can just delete or block anyone that is ridiculously proving themselves to be a penis head. Or simply ignore them.
Is no one capable of having a conversation anymore? I think that might actually be a serious turn on for me.
And the profiles men put up! The pictures of themselves they choose.
They need help...
A lot of professional help.

Maybe he thought Phonetic was an ethnic group.
ReplyDeleteOMG I am dying. I have been wanting to respond to this since I saw it the other day.
ReplyDeleteI'd like you know he Phonetically spelled his name again and said,
You, my internet is down, call me (*his number)
Lord, Help Me
I just want to say this...if someone message you a word and you didn't know it wouldn't you LOOK IT UP?!!?
Clearly my standards are ridiculous. I feel like I am in that Luke Wilson movie, Idiocracy.
I'd like to clarify, You is how you pronounce his name Eu. See how I may have been confused? LOL
ReplyDeleteIgnore my typos... this dating site thing is dumbing me down and exhausting me.
