A friend of \*\*Shocker Khan’s \*\*claims to have received an email from [this person w/ a profile on OK Cupid](http://www.okcupid.com/profile/Lawyer-69) and we have been having fun sharing the link amongst our friends on Facebook. Couldn’t keep the fun to ourselves though and had to share it here as well. Not sure if my wife’s friend was being truthful in how she discovered this profile, but it’s still fun. Some Googling only comes up with the profile, and one short forum thread someplace else about it - so it’s not exactly viral yet… Actually, it probably is viral. Just being honest. (some language in the profile linked may be nswf) ---

I would date him, but his ethnicity just isn’t diverse enough for me. ---

Ha - I’ve just started the whole online dating thing again and I wish I could find something _funny._ All I can find is people who are thirty fucking years old whose favorite book is _Atlas Shrugged_, guys in camo hats, and pictures of guys with no head AND no shirt. OK Cupid also has a really interesting blog statistically analyzing some of the data they get, which is cool but also discouraging when you see the graph of men and the ages they’ll accept women on paper (already skewed younger rather than older than the guy) and the people they actually message (almost all younger), plus the graph of women getting messages by age (hint, it drops like a rock at 30. I’m 31.) So thanks, cruel world. Oh, and thanks also for putting my ex’s new profile where I’m always stumbling over it. That’s cute! ETA - I’m still snickering over “THAT I ONLY HAVE ONE ARM.” ---

We might have to just box ourselves up and wait until we’re “FABULOUS AND FIFTY!” and can get the good guys coming off a divorce ☹ ---

**Zsofia** , I know you’ve been pursuing the Zen thing, but I forget what your overall belief status is. Anyway, even if you’re just an atheist-friendly non-Christian, you’re a rare commodity in the dating world. So you could check out the freethinker dating scene. ---

On the other hand, maybe there [this guy](http://www.okcupid.com/profile/kinkyguy89) wouldn’t keep visiting my profile. ---

I can understand most of the objections, but “thirty fucking years old”? Or do you just mean he should have read some other books by now?
