With my OK Cupid profile, I decided to go all out, and rather than talk about myself, I decided to be creative. Even try to be funny. So far, I am getting weird and below average girls replying. I am not necessarily expecting HB's responding right away. But I am looking for something a little bit better.

My pics consists of: a shot me smiling, a picture of me with a friend at a wedding-I was a groomsman in the wedding, so I had a tux on, a picture from New Year's Eve with a female friend, me with friends I met while backpacking in South America-pic has a girl in it, and me hiking in Alaska-actually the pic consist of the mountain landscape and I am just a dot.

My self-summery
Please allow me to introduce myself. I am an extraordinary,
debonair gentleman. that will leave you wondering how in the world you were able to lead a seemingly normal and even successful life without knowing me. I'm such an incredible person that the Dos Equis "Interesting Man in the World" looks like a salesman for a regional paper company when compared to me. I was once called on to save an African village from wildabeast attacks. I designed my own line of outerwear, that left Vogue magazine baffled as how it could be possible to make it socially acceptable to drape one's self in velvet. I have dined with presidents, partied with rock stars, and worked out with Olympic athletes. Even Area Man wants to hangout with me. I'm a man of wealth and taste. To put it bluntly, I'm kind of a big thing.

What am I doing with My Life
Corrupting the youth of America, just like Socrates.

Writing the next chapter of my life.

And running underground racing llamas in Peru

I'm really good at
Shouldn't this section be called "I'm really bad at"? It would be much easier for me to list that. I have the athletic ability of Wayne Gretzky. I have the musical talents of Bach and Paul McCartney. I have the cooking abilities of Julia Child. And the artistic talents of Picasso. And I am wittier than Oscar Wilde.

The First Thing People Notice about Me
I look like that guy from those White Castle Movies. People also comment on how young I look. Despite being in my 30's, I get mistaken for being an undergrad on the Temple campus.

Favorite books, movies, shows, music, food
Books: The Game by Ken Dryden, On the Road, Naked Lunch, the Great Gatsby, a Picture of Dorian Gray, Lonesome Traveler, Sex Drugs and CocoPuffs, Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, Spanking the Donkey, Rise of the Creative Class, Death and Life of Great American Cities, From the Tomb of the Inflatable Pig, Snow, Trainspotting, the Acid House, The Hockey Sweater-a classic kids book that never gets old.

Movies: 24 Hour Party People, Trainspotting, Snatch, Y tu mamá también, Annie Hall, the Landlord, The Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dean, Shawn the Dead. Darjeeling Express, I Heart Huckabees. The Rocket

Television: Anything that involves hockey, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, The Colbert Report, Rachel Maddow, the Office, 30 Rock, Parks and Recreation, the State

Music: Daft Punk (who I have playing in my house), Radiohead, The Killers, Sounds, Silversun Pickups, Sasha, Digweed, Paul Oakenfold, DJ Colette, Reid Speed, Jan Johnston, Deep Dish, MGMT, Arcade Fire, Of Montreal, Steve Porter, Deathcab for Cutie, New Order, Coldplay, Arctic Monkeys, Depeche Mode, the vines, the Decemberists, Mumford and Sons, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, nerd, BT, Robert Miles.

Food: I LOVE ICE CREAM. I will eat it with a fox. I will eat it in a box. I will eat it in a house. I will eat it with a mouse. I will eat it here or there. I will eat ice cream anywhere.

I also I like pizza and candy. But my diet has progressed since I was 10. I love Middle Eastern, Ethiopian, Korean, Sushi, and German.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
Where did Vincent Van Gogh? Whatever happened to Mozart? He was all the rage, and then poof you don't hear from him. If Mozart was around today, would he get facial tattoos like Lil' Wayne? What would a concert tour headlined by Lil'Wayne and Mozart be like? Could you perform Shakespeare's A MidSummer's Night Dream in mime form? Would Lil' Wayne make a good Oberon?

But I also think of far more crucial things like: How will Jaromir Jagr will affect the Flyers?

On a typical Friday Night
When the weekend lands, all that exist are: pubs, clubs, drugs, and parties. I talk sh*t to strangers, rock the dance-floor like John Travolta. I get more spaced out than Neil Armstrong. I am off to Never Neverland with my chosen family.

(bonus points if you know the movie I paraphrased)

The most private thing I am willing to admit
I am SPAM. I once had a really great idea for a book, but then this guy, F Scott Fitzgerald stole my idea. Thank goodness nobody has ever heard of the book or the guy.

You should message me if
Didn't you read this profile??? Didn't you see my Adonis figure? What are you waiting for? Don't tell me you're going to reply to that other guy's profile. How can you have any self-respect if you reply to a guy whose profile pic entails him taking a topless self-portrait with his i-Phone?

On a serious note here are some things that should describe you.
- you have a college a degree, and the University of Phoenix doesn't count
-You're just as excited about the return of the Winnipeg Jets as I am. OK, you don't have to be.
-You must have a specific taste in music, movies, and books. I find people who say they like "all kinds of music, movies, etc" usually have no taste.
-Fox News viewers describe your politics as: tax raising, tofu eating, NPR listening, elitist urban academic communism.
-I have no problems with vegetarians, so long as you are not offended that I eat meat in front of you. Also you're a vegetarian for secular reasons
-I prefer that you're from the West Coast, however I won't hold it against you if you're from the East Coast-you just got to be laid back like you're from the West Coast
-You live in Philadelphia
-If you have a cat, your cat doesn't have its own Facebook profile-but it is OK if the you have pictures of the cat on YOUR Facebook profile
-If you have a dog, it doesn't fit in your purse. But it doesn't have to be so big a two year old can ride it like a horse.
-I know this should be a given, but I would like to make it clear that facial tattoos are a deal breaker
-you like to have a good time, you have a sense of humor.
-Most importantly you think smart, goofy, Indian guys are sexy


Let me know what I can do to make this more attractive[/b]

I smirked while reading this whole thing!

I personally think it is a brilliant witty composition. You seem pretty charming and well read through all of this.

In my opinion the reason your getting the group of people responding is like what is written about in "The Book of Pook". I don't know if you had read that or not but it is a great ebook. pretty much girls have their place and men have their own. To attract women, don't wast time speaking philosophy and art to them. This blog a friend of mine follows has a post saying that "You must find what is your niche, and adapt to fit that niche" Although it sounds limiting, it really isn't. If you're trying to attract HB9 and higher, you're going to have to demonstrate social value that parallels and blows what they have in their lives out of the water.



What I would change in your written profile is toning it down, less is more. Certain references will go over the heads of most girls such as the Socrates one (Although I found it funny, In Ancient Greece I believe having relations with young boys wasn't outlandish...so that statement could EASILY be taken the wrong way)

Also, I wouldn't put my age in the profile...i'd just say "People say I look pretty young, so thank god for my amazing genetics" This will DHV and also add a bit of mystery to your persona as well as a bit of cocky funny.


If you're getting responses, then your all good :]

I got to "I love SPAM." and knew this was a good profile. If that doesn't do it, I don't know what will.

Hilarious profile, lol.

lol so how is this working out for you?

I suppose the frequency may not be high, but as for intensity, this may mesh perfectly for a certain type of girl and will work perfectly

Glad you guys like it. I was able to F-close with one girl with this profile. So there is some value in being wacky and witty with your profile.

However, here is a big problem. When I get responses, telling me that the profile made them laugh. I give them a general response, like "Thanks, I am glad the profile". I feel I lose them when I try to be a bit more serious. Should I give them a wackier response?

Well, they probably read the profile and are expecting a good time, to be entertained all the time by you and then when they see you're a bit more relaxed, they probably don't know how to interpret that.

It is like a comedian not telling jokes.

You should try to be more flirtatious with your response, also. :]

Respect the cock.

That's a good idea, I should do a follow up on the profile. Add more witty and banter. Even ask them, "why should a person of my stature go out for coffee with you. How can I go from having tea and discussing global economics with the Obama's to going to Starbucks with and talking about your roommate's bad habits with you". Or something along that line.
