ps. do you have aol or yahoo messenger?
okay, so pretty much any person who has ever been on myspace has gotten a creepy message from some random person. i am usually not one to make an example, but im in a blah mood and this just calls for being picked apart.
one. "hey sexy". okay, if you are messaging someone who you do not know and have never met, it is definitely not good manners to call them "sexy" instead of their actual name, especially when said name is in plain view. it is demeaning, as well as kind of disturbing coming from a complete stranger who is six to seven years my senior.
two. "..i like very much!" now, all of a sudden, he is some russian sleaze. all he has to say to get my attention and woo me into his arms is "..Your gorgeous..wow!" not only has he misspelled 'you're', but his horrible syntax has also robbed the ellipses of a period each. then he tries to impress me with his college degree. since he does not specify, i am going to assume that he means a bachelors. this assumption made, why exactly is he trying to impress me with a degree it took him six to seven years to obtain?
three. "...i am also a total lake rat. You can find me either at my lakehouse or on lake lewisville in the summer" Oh, really, you're a lake rat? I find that absolutely orgasmic. I cannot wait to rub sunblock on your back and then jump into a huge puddle of filthy water. But, way to subtly include the fact that you own a lakehouse. I suppose during those six years of college you managed to hold down a job. Congrats.
four."Are you single?". Gee, why? "What do you do"? This one is actually the most confusing of all, but the two of these are linked together...but I'll get to that. What do i do? Hmm. Im not sure if he's actually interested, has no clue as to what an eighteen year old girl would be doing, or if he is taking a page from his buddies by pretending to be interested in my life, thereby nabbing me good. now, after some consideration, i decided that these two questions further instill the fact that the guy is a sleaze. both of them could have been easily answered if he had taken the time to read my profile rather than look at my pictures and dream about finding his fellow "lake rat". aw.
five. " xoxo, Jason ". okay jason, we've covered this. out of curiosity though, do you give out hugs and kisses to all the new people you meet, or is that how a "lake rat" shakes hands??
thanks, jason, but ill pass on being your boo. dig the gold chain though.
