Come sit and Chat....

ME - "Anyways, I want to tell you what happened because its leads us back into the discussion about myspace, facebook and dating sites like match.com"
Friend who wants to remain Anonymous - "what..Some Lame guy contact you on myspace?"
ME - "No." Advances to tell story.
Tells story.
Story telling is finished.
Friend who wants to remain Anonymous - "Irene let me summarize your story in a literary sense."
Friend who wants to remain Anonymous - "Heroine character was weak, no characterization, no motivation, hard for the reader to sympathize. Plot was pointless and mundane. Ending was unsatisfying, offering neither resolution of the central conflict or progression/development of the character. And finally the ending was telegraphed from the first page."
ME - "You really are mean to me. I'm not talking to you for the rest of the day."
lolz! Here's the funny thing.. i have two best friends who met their match on an online site and happened to end up marrying that person. I know plenty of people who do online dating. I on the otherhand am kinda opposed to it because of the whole "who knows if they are telling the truth" or whatever. needless to say thats not any damn different from the outside dating world (meaning not through your friends or school)
so said anonymous friend has told me to go pick up a book entitled "Freakonomics" which I will now start dedicating my weekends to reading it at Barnes and Nobles... cuz hey why pay for it when u can read it there. lol cheap ass. It is a book by a brilliant U. of Chicago economist, Steven D. Levitt, which analyzes a wide range of topics from an economist’s Point of View.
So Lets capture your attention though because the whole reason why this came up was to oppose me posting anything on match.com site. Here are some interesting stats for those considering getting noticed:
**An unattractive male has to earn $150,000 more than an attractive male to be on an “even playing field.”
**Hispanic male has to make $77,000 more than a White Male to be on an even playing field with regard to getting responses from White Females.
**Black Males have to make $154,000 more than White Males
**Asian Males have to make $247,000 more than a White Male to be on an even playing field with regard to getting responses from White Women.
So what have we learned? I'm not a white woman so u will be getting a response from me! hahhaahah just kidding... anonymous friend says.. and I quote "It all Reeks of Desperation." lol kinda harsh isnt he?
