I decided the other day that my love life sucks. So, I decided I could do worse than to sign up for a few dating sites.

I started with [Match.com](http://Match.com). They want me to pick a user name. So I enter one.

Hmm…already taken. I try a few more.

None of them are available. They offer a few options where they add numbers to the bottom. One of them looks okay, so I enter it and hit Enter. I’m sure to get in now, right? I mean, I picked one of their options. It has to be available, right?

Wrong. Already taken. Huh?

I tried well over 100 names. All of them were taken. I even tried every option that they offered when my name was taken. They were all taken, too.

So to sum up, my love life sucks and [Match.com](http://Match.com) is not trying to help. Oh, and [eHarmony.com](http://eHarmony.com) also told me they have no matches for me.

So, any cute, single female dopers with low standards out there in the DC metro area? 😉

And since this is the Pit: FuckFuckFuckFuckFuckFuckFuckFuckFuck!

So how many "Lord Ashtar"s can there be on [match.com](http://match.com)?

I’ve never used [Match.com](http://Match.com), but I’m going to give you a list of three usernames right now, and I _guarantee_ you at least one of them will be available:

1. scabby\_penis69
2. LookinForWarmHolesToStickItIn
3. GotGonorrhea?

(emphasis mine)

Hot? Single? _Woman_?? The specific nature of your request seems to imply a selectivity which is grossly misrepresented by your username, **Lookin**. Perhaps you should give up your name to someone without such high standards…

Cost me $50 in phonesex charges to make it through that session. You could show a little gratitude.
