Okay, Asre12, you popped up on my daily 5 today and I thought your picture was nerdy cute with your geeky hair, your glasses and the big goofy grin while you're holding the DVD of "The Notebook." This is clever, a little smartass and totally something that caught my attention.
Plus, I'm on a whole "more yeses" kick, so you also have that going for you. Then I read that you have a one-year-old daughter. Good for you. I'm also on a kick that I should be checking out more single parents/fathers as they can relate to time coming at a premium. You also say you're trying to get back into church, that you want your daughter to go to church. Dude, I appreciate that. I started back at church so my son could have a religious background (with which to make an informed decision as to whether religion was for him or not, mind you. i'm not about indoctrinating my youth)
I read your cute quippy profile with enough interest that my cursor is hovering over the "yes" button. I mean, why the hell not? I'm supposed to not overthink the daily 5. I am supposed to look, read, and click "yes", "no" or "maybe" based on the same gut reaction one begins to talk with someone at a bar except with even more information on board that THAT usually affords (this is how I'm not looking at this little exercise)
Except then, just curiously, I decide to click on the other 7 pictures you've posted. You, you snarky, father of a one year old (never married though - like me!)
What pictures have you posted? You and your frat buddies. You with beer bottles. You doing tool whiteboy gang signs or some nature. You NOT smiling but looking exactly like the dbag that would NOT get clicked on. And now, your snarky little picture looks like exactly what it is - an attempt to draw in the unsuspecting woman.
WHO CLICKS ON YOU?! I mean, I know women, I get it. Somebody clicks on you. Somebody winks at you. You're not bad looking, but I can see it in your pictures. You, sir, are a douchebag. And you want people to know it. And, you are preying upon women with your cheeky geeky photo with "the notebook" and your mention of church and your one year old daughter....because that guy in the 7 other pictures you CHOSE to post as representative of who you are? Yikes-a-moli. Get a better PR person, my friend.
The moral of the story tonight, readers, is that pictures DO tell 1000 words. Make sure they are the words you want to tell.
Man Update: date in process of being scheduled with SmartyPants. Firefighter dude (dammit, did I NAME him? I'm breaking my own system down!) is not a great messager despite a profile that claims his great sense of humor and love of sarcasm. He makes me feel like I talk too much. But he's cute. So I'm going to keep messaging him till I run out of anything to talk about. Or his lack of skills make his cuteness morph into less-than-cuteness.
