So I just started the online dating thing. I've had no way to meet new people with any regularity, so I took my brother's advice and joined OKCupid. So far I just feel creepy. It's the equivalent of looking in strange girls's rooms at night, deciding if I like the posters on their wall, then knocking on their window and waving with a hopeful smile from the darkness.
And the best part is there's about thirty guys standing around me doing the same thing.
How are you supposed to ask strangers to go on a movie date in a non weirdo way? Reference some band or book on their profile as a mutual interest and say, by-the-way I'm not a creep? Which makes you sound like a creep. Bah, I hate it.

I ought to join a book club.
