Posted: 9/3/2006 4:12:10 PM | Hope I'm not plagarizing anyone in here...didn't read the whole thread.
If it's 'A', he/she needs to learn to control his impulses in a big way - so the answer is actually 'B'...
If it's 'C', he/she needs to grow some brains and figger out what funny REALLY is in a hurry - so the answer is actually 'B'...
If it's 'B', well...then the answer is B.
I wouldn't invest any more time in this guy/gal than it takes to hit the delete button. | |

Oh man haha. That was funny.
As for what I would do, it would actually depend on what mood I'm in and if I'm busy or not. If I feel like ripping her message apart then I would. If I don't feel like bothering, then I'll read it and delete. | |

Posted: 9/3/2006 9:04:56 PM | I would think that person has major issues, I would however not be able to resist sending a reply: "This must be the reason you don't get dates"  | |

Posted: 9/3/2006 9:18:04 PM | most of you are missing the point. No one sent that to him. HE wants to send it to someone he is interested in.
My vote is no.
And shaunamarie78 if you are going to spell check people's posts try not to make mistakes yourself.
It's wouldn't. With an L. | |

Posted: 9/3/2006 9:23:06 PM | My reply: (D) Apparently you found me so irrestistbly stunning that you could not resist sending me a message. Oh and it was more than one sentence, so we know you are literate.  | |

Posted: 9/3/2006 9:25:25 PM | Perhaps it is a stab of humour or sarcasm but it it is from someone you just don't know and have not heard from before I would delete and say NEXT...relationships are hard enough without having to play games. | |

Posted: 9/3/2006 9:35:11 PM | | I would say the "OP" is auditioning his new standard 'copy and paste' letter for a forum audience before he sends it to the ladies on his favorites list. | |

He states that it is quoted, thats where we are getting that impression that it was sent to him, and not one he wants to send.
Either way, it screams "I PLAY GAMES!" lol | |

Bratty-one with the jealous eyes, he did not say it was quoted from anyone else. He asked what if you received one quoted as such.
He's auditioning for the big stage, I truly believe. | |

Discofied, why wouldn't you have one second for the person who write such a thing? What kind of person do you think they are?
The person is attempting to be clever, in my opinion, and is not very successful. I prefer a more direct approach. I read all the emails I get; and the ones that get my attention are the ones that have something to say. I also respond to all my emails (with a few exceptions); what is in that to respond to? I don't have time to decipher what the person's intentions are; I'm a busy woman.
Don't get me wrong; I absolutely love a sense of humour. However, the initial email is an introduction; a brief moment for someone to say hi. I don't want clever---that can wait for the 1st date. | |

Posted: 9/4/2006 8:02:37 PM | | She is obviously playing with you...she has you hooked with that last line,sooo write her back and say...But what if you are right? She will either come clean or say good buy....then again i could be wrong about everything! | |

Posted: 9/9/2006 5:04:24 PM | I wrote one message like that to one lady.
She had on her profile that she didn't believe guys read the darn things. So, I messaged her and touched about every point in her profile in just about that very same way (negatively).
She emailed me back and asked me who pissed in my cornflakes basically...
I emaild her back and said it was all a joke and that I was trying to show in a creative way that I did in fact read her profile and really liked it.
She wrote back and said thanks, she see saw it for what it was after that.
I emailed her one more time with a more sincere letter, and never heard back from her...
Maybe it's not the best way to make a first impression... | |

Posted: 9/9/2006 5:20:05 PM | | I would create an equally if not far more creative email to answer her back, to tell her why i wasn't interested. touche' | |

Posted: 9/10/2006 1:56:04 AM | ya gotta be careful with the funnies on the internet thing , I sent what I thought was a witty reply to a message I got on here , well needless to say , he didn't share my love of the sarcasm - he basically wrote me back saying I was a miserable beeyatch - to which I responded by proposing marriage.
If I got a message like the OP's , I would laugh ,and it *would* get a response from me , more so than the standard "hey how's it goin" or the dreaded emoticon only emails. | |

Posted: 9/10/2006 7:13:21 AM | It's C
However if I got it I would delete it. I really don't see any reason for twisting things around like that. I sometimes get mail from people who write as if they were the bike writing, describing the owner of the bike or a dog doing the same. Sometimes I get stories sent to me about what we're going to do on our first date. Sometimes I get poems. I delete them all. I'm just not someone who appreciates that type of expression.
I'm sure there are people who do appreciate it but why risk it? | |

Posted: 9/10/2006 7:38:27 AM | Being the half glass full sort I'd probably opt for C. What can I say, I like creativity. However, being the smarta$$ I am I'm sure the reply would be equally interesting!  | |

Ddi you write this yourself and are trying it out on us - its not funny enough! Goes on for too long and for a first message would probably put most folk off! | |
|

Posted: 9/10/2006 1:16:36 PM | No doubt the answer here is C. My guess is the OP sent this to someone and didn't get the response he was hoping for. I think you over thought this one pal, and by trying to be funny, came off as "too clever" by far and she just deleted the message; or she sent you back an angry reply. Sarcasm can be tough to pull off, especially in the online dating world-for first communications you'd be better off sticking with sincerity, even if it doesn't seem to be getting you many responses at the moment. After you get to know someone a bit you can start showing them another side of you and dazzle them with your "wit".

Posted: 9/17/2006 6:40:01 PM | | Hey 2cute4you! sounds like you and I have a similar sense of humor as it was I who wrote and sent that message to few ladies. As you predicted, some were rolling on the floor laughing, some didn't get it at all. At least I got some fan mail and hate mail which beats 1000s of ladies who ignored the thoughtful and insightful emails I used to send. This experience also taught me that I am only interested in someone who appreciate my slighly off the wall sense of humor which further narrows my fishing pool. | |
