this is not ok, cupid

I've met a lot of winners in the LA dating scene.  Here are some of my favorites over the past few months: 

The Young One
I had to get my phone fixed at the Sprint store and chatted with the cashier guy who asked me out for a drink.  And then this happened:

Him:  "Can I see the name on your ID to make sure it matches the credit card?"
Me: *hands ID*
Him: "Oh, damn... Uhh, I thought you were like, 23 or 24..."

Sweetie, you did that in the wrong order.  Card them, and then ask them out.  Otherwise, you might get punched in the stomach.



The Teeth Guy
Online from Timmaaayyyyyyyy:  "Hey girl-- You have really hot teeth."

Yeah?   Oh, did you not realize I'm a teeth model?

I guess the screenname was sort of a telling sign.

The Programmer Nerd

"I used to flow visualization for a computational fluids lab in college. I hope you're as excited about html5 and webGL as I am!"

Yes.  He really said this.  At a bar.

The WWJD Actor
So, Bartender/Aspiring Actor is the most disappointing.  Honestly, I felt we actually clicked, even though I swore to stay away from anyone with headshots.

In addition to being super hot, I thought he was sort of awesome.  However, had that actually gone anywhere, the Jesus love and framed prayer card at his apartment would have been more of a dealbreaker than the headshots.


Oh, Los Angeles...
