beer and facebook flirting
just like how beer has been helping ugly people have sex since 1862 (yes, i'm sure you've seen those t-shirts around), the internet was always going to move in on that front too...cuz after all, we are programmed as such by mother nature...to look for a mate to spend the rest of our lives with. well, most of us at least...
so, as the internet paves the way for the less-physically-pleasing-to-the-eye people (like yours truly) to meet, there has been an endless boom of websites / applications for these despera...i mean...lonely people.
anyway, now that i've gotten past the obligatory introductory paragraphs, AND since i've established the fact that i have absolutely nothing against ugly, fat, and generally uncool people...there are some things that i have to bring up when it comes to online dating / flirting...or more specifically, online flirting in facebook.
now, when you add the application called "are you interested?" or "meet new people", you KNOW what the program is for...to find a suitable mate. (don't give me that "let's be friend's" crap lah...you know, i know and we all know)
so here are some tips for you chics on your profile photos...
1. being photogenic is tough...i know cuz i look like shit in a lot of photos too...but try to be visible at least lah...
(from what i know, using flash doesn't cost anything extra)
2. try to look reasonably friendly...
('nuff said)
3. generally speaking, most people want to know what you look like in these kinda progams, so putting up these photos don't really help:
(and come on, you're 27 and 28 year olds, respectively)
4. make sure you are single to begin with...
unless you have a very understanding boyfriend...
or husband...
but seriously...why would you add this application in the first place?!?
5. us guys have a not-so-secret code name for girls who look good from behind, and ONLY look good from behind...so trust me when i say that using this picture is not a good idea...
transformer profile pic = not good idea
6. use your real picture. case in point:
(p.s. - if this is really your photo, please feel free to email me and correct my mistake. i'll buy you coffee to make it up to you. hahaha.)
i guess i could go on and on and on...but then it'd seem like i'm some guru or expert of sorts...if i were, i wouldn't be stuck at home on a saturday afternoon waiting for chics to flirt with me online...ha.
aiyah, fuck this shit. i'm going out to buy a blow-up doll.
cheers. =)

erm... the bridal shot looks kinda familar... hmmm....
hahahahah! i hate hello kitty too. was that a REAL profile pic?
I believe that a lot of people on FB don't take the applications very seriously. If not, if you look at the SuperPoke applications, you either have a lot of very understanding partners out there or a lot of the actions are done out of jest :)
