i do, i don't, whatever

nothing coherent this morning, but i do have a few words:

• screw you, singles.net. you trumpet on your website that you are "the top rated dating site, hitwise." WELL DUH. that's not hard, 'cause you have a bunch of redirects set such that in case someone types "blogger.cm" instead of "blogger.com", you hvae set up a page or two of redirects that eventually lead to your site. that doesn't mean that you have lots of people signed up for your site. that means that people make typographical errors, curse at their klutzy little fingers when they reach your website instead of blogger, shake their heads, and type the right address to blogger. and then, if it's the first time they've seen your ridiculous claim, they may blog about just how meaningless it is.
• "basura solamente" is one of the most awesome album titles ever. what makes it even better is that the music on it is not trash at all...after the fight rocks my socks off.
• i had such a weird night at the casino last night. the real poker was full of fail...it was an evil combination of terrible cards and not really being in the right mental state to play poker...i wasn't ever able to get in the zone. however, i still ended up ahead, because before playing poker, we screwed around at the three-card poker table. it's not poker at all, but it was a very entertaining game...at which i got very, very lucky on one hand. i'm happy about that luck, but it still left a sour taste in my mouth that any actual skill [specifically, Omaha High/Low skill] was missing in action. i need better focus next time.

Dating Websites

[c4bl3fl4m3.livejournal.com]

Have you tried the following:
OKCupid (the awesome people are the ones who do a fuckton of the questions... "it's the algorithm, stupid!" :-D)
Geek 2 Geek (gk2gk.com)

And I'm sure when I can think of others, I'll let you know. There's a few other geek dating websites but I don't know their URLs.

i definitely did my share of OK-Cupid-ing when i was single...went out a few times with people from there, and all that. it seemed to have fewer complete losers, at least back in st. louis, than some other sites, but still few profiles were respond-worthy.

never heard of geek to geek, but at least they're not randomly redirecting me there when i'm trying to get to blogger. that's a good thing, i guess. :P

Have I mentioned that you always have the right icon for every situation? Really. :-D
