Is CynicalGabe hot and/or worthy of the attention of the opposite sex? I report. You decide.

Would love to post my opinion, but the pics don’t show up for me.

Unless you look like a little red X on a white field…then _totally_ hot.

I think you look fine. 🙂

Have you thought about posting your pic on [www.hotornot.com](http://www.hotornot.com) ? You’ll get raw, honest advice from totally random strangers who have nothing to gain by flattering you. Judging from your picture, you don’t have to be afraid of posting your pic there.

Posting several different pics on hotornot is also a good way of finding out what picture scores highest. Use that picture on a datingsite. Surprisingly, it might not be the picture YOU like best.

CynicalGabe is hot. CynicalGabe looks \*\*\*real \*\* \* good in a suit, though disconcertingly like he may be a politician.

However, CynicalGabe should be advised that if he IS in politics, he’d be better off looking for a name that distracts attention from it. Cynical is not enough, Gabe must align himself with an industry which instils more faith than politics.

For example, **HonestGabe’sSecondhandVehicleEmporium**.

Sorry, when I saw the thread title, I just HAD to do it. Don’t take me seriously.

Too young, but that’ll heal. Cute, though, definately.

I agree - the act of asking for opinions of hotness cranks the thermometer down a few notches.

Not hot in a drooly Brad Pitt in \*Troy \*way, but cute and comfy looking - exactly what I’d look for in a boyfriend. (Hot hot guys spend more time than I do getting ready, and I have no patience for the ego that comes with it.) Nice smile lines around the eyes, which speak well for your sense of humor. You look like a guy I could enjoy hanging out with, would be nice to my kid sister and good for trading backrubs and more by the fire. Certainly not unattractive. If you think your looks are putting women off, think again.

Cute, but not hot. But take it with a grain of salt - Snicks’s current definition of hot is Ryan Whateverhislastnameis in Blade III. Yowza!

If I weren’t married and saw you somewhere, I’d take a second look.

But the attention grabbing part? Not remotely hot.

Um–lose the scraggy facial hair, soon. No, really. then again, I’m not as young as you, so maybe the hair is a good thing? Either lose it or grow it more and groom it.

You are nice looking–you look better in a suit. Actually, you look uncomfortable getting your pic taken.

Why on earth are you putting yourself thru what can turn into a very hurtful process aka posting this on a bb?

IMO, you’re nice looking, you look like you’re probably a nice guy–who knows? Don’t know anything about you, really.

Nope. Just a college student.

Thanks. I like suits.  
And I do despise having my picture taken.

No, its a bad thing. But I’d been living by myself in the woods for about a month, so rarely took the time to shave.

Ryan Reynolds. If you do a search for his name in the cafe society, most of the hits will be from me 😃

CynicalGabe, has anyone ever told you that you bear a passing resemblance to [Brendan Fehr](http://www.imdb.com/gallery/scrapbook/39/Sbk/39/3289900_2_4.jpg?path=pgallery&path_key=Fehr,%20Brendan)?
