Part of it is what you said, we don't worry about appearances. We talk to people who talk to us. Particularly when we have a little time to post, we can think it out and try to have a semblance of poise we may not have IRL.
What is it they say about some people, the more attractive they find someone, the more likely they are to fall in love with them, and there are other people, the more they fall in love with their partners, the more attractive their partners become to them?
She will always be the one …
Surrounded by a crowd of admirers,
And here am I
Who shouldn’t be in the cloud at all
Were it not for those eyes.
Those magnificent, beautiful, gorgeous eyes
That twinkle when she smiles
Brightening my midnight sky.

HEY! You have too met me, just not in person. Sheesh.
And Euty, you made me swoon.
Euty, you are right magnificent.
A sweet good evening to you.
Let me join in the toast to the intelligent, charming women of this board, who are beautiful both inside and out:
my love
thy hair is one kingdom
the king whereof is darkness
thy forehead is a flight of flowers
thy head is a quick forest
filled with sleeping birds
thy breasts are swarms of white bees
upon the bough of thy body
thy body to me is April
in whose armpits is the approach of spring
– e.e. cummings

Thank you. That’s exactly how I like to be thought of.
'Course, now I can never actually meet any of you.
Darn it! Where is that from, please? It’s horribly familiar, but I don’t know why.
[sub]Do you know how proud I am that I caught an allusion from Ukulele Ike? It’s like reading a “thinker” of a book–just trying to understand it makes me feel more intelligent. And when I do…well, wow. :D[/sub]
What about the bachelor slobs of the SDMB? We need love, too.
cheerio you bachelor slobs!

Here’s to girl in the little red boots,
She eats my food and drinks my booze,
She doesn’t have a cherry, but that’s no sin,
She still has the box the cherry came in!
One of those silly college party toasts,
Funny thing about it: The first time I met my wife, she had on red boots!
We still tip a glass to this one occasionally.
Anyway, here’s to those made with lace and a second one for that god given Space
Here’s a toast for all of you from an arachnid lady.

Of course, I didn’t just mean the gentlemen of the SDMB. If I did that, I’d only be toasting what, maybe 2 or 3 of you? 
Here’s to all the:
Gentlemen
Men
Guys
Dudes
Boys
SDMB members with members
Oh, and hi Tygr! How YOU doin’?
Spidey, have I ever told you how cute your spider pictures are and how much I enjoy them?
