| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 5/8/2008 2:21:26 AM | Holler, (yes I say that to be funny) I am enjoying the thread. I'd like some feedback for the fun of it. I can't say that I'll take your advice, but I'm curious about what you have to say. I have been here for exactly 3 days.... I know because I had to wait for a few hours to be allowed to post in the forums. I have about 2 full pages of e-mail responses so I know I am getting attention, but so far not from my target audience. After reading this thread I will add a section about what I am looking for. (duh, that would help huh) So in any case shoot away Mr. Brightside. _Nerdsauce | |

| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 5/29/2008 9:12:24 AM | Mememememe! I am brand new here and would love some snarky hilarity shot my way.
Mojo, are you still in NYC? Still charging a drink fee for profile reviews? | |

| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 5/30/2008 7:10:54 PM | It seems I have been away too long. I am flattered by the continuing interest in my poo-flinging, so without further ado...
STWY2HVN: Good profile! Your pics give us a good idea of who you are and your essays have the much sought-after ingredient known as personality. Share it with your friends!
JOEL246: You're here for "hang out" so you don't need any help. You're 21 and you say in your profile you have a busy social life, so it mystifies me why you would be on a dating site looking for people to "hang out" with. Perhaps you're another one of the many people on here who are either afraid or embarrassed to admit they are here for "dating." But until you can take that one little first step, I'm going to laugh at you.
VLADA: Ok, your lead picture is great, but then we get two more with your back to us, one of you ten miles away and one of your guitar. Unless people will be dating you from afar or want to rent your axe, those don't really help. Your profile is a little generic but passable, although you might want to correct your typos and punctuation errors, especially since you describe yourself as "intelligent." Oh, and "Marry" only has one R. NEXT!
VEGAN GODDESS: Pretty good pictures and you also seem to have some of this "personality" stuff, so good going on what you've written. You may want to have one or two less mentions of your cats, unless you're really intent on someone knowing how obsessed you are over them. Also, ditch the last line suggesting that people "hurry up," the whole thing is a bit incoherent and it doesn't help. Good luck - oh and by the way, 80s music IS trendy these days, so you may want to update that!
It just proves that no matter how strange your tastes are, wait long enough and you'll finally be trendy.
More to follow later this weekend. I promise! | |

| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 5/31/2008 10:48:58 AM | Welcome back Mojo. You've been missed. Thank you for the compliment on my profile. Actually the recent profile is a product of reading your posts and following the sometimes brutal but always excellent advice you've given those brave soles asking for it. Keep up the good work. | |

| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 6/30/2008 6:56:33 PM | You know what? I don't care where Mr. Mojo has disappeared to. I made my post more than two months ago and dude just blew me right off. So no, I don't want no stinkin' profile review, k? In fact, maybe it's time this long-ignored thread were deleted.
Pft. | |

| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 7/5/2008 11:54:31 AM | I know it's probably a tax on you to keep asking you to review, but hey, you offered. Are you regretting it yet? Maybe you should start your own website!
If you have time, please have a go at mine.
Thanks! | |

| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 7/26/2008 1:09:12 AM | Hi everyone! Decided to pop in for a few reviews. I am flabbergasted that you guys are still following this thread and wondering where I went. As I mentioned a few pages back, I now have a real blog, so a lot of my "free" writing time is spent there. Still, I promised long ago that I would always come back to my one, true home and play with y'all whenever I could! I also like to look at the boob shots.
It seems like a few of you have actually gotten angry that I didn't get to your profiles! Are you insane? You're actually upset I didn't have time to make fun of you? You want my thread deleted? By all means, let's put you to the front of the line!
Classyfied Ally: I would say your headline is half right (just delete the first word and you'll be good to go). Your pictures are great, they definitely show us that you do the best you can with a limited fashion budget (guys like a woman who can spread the cheddar a little further).
Let's take a quick look at what you've written: Me: Loyal to those I care about, patient, kind-hearted, dislike being the center of attention... I don't know, Ally - I'd say your tantrum over not getting a timely review shows you may actually be IMpatient and your call to have this thread deleted was less than kind-hearted. Also please note that asking for a review in a popular thread is asking to be the center of attention! Sincere in what I say and do and not pushy... Not pushy? See previous statement. I am turned off by sarcasm or humor at the expense of others. So you asked for a review in the most sarcastic thread on POF, which is all about humor at the expense of others? For shame, Ally! You might want to consider updating your profile with a few more tidbits to give folks a more accurate view of your personality. Or they can just read your forum posts.
RVgoldengirl and anyone else who is just looking for friends: I've already said this dozens of time, so... actually, frak it. I'm not going to say it again. You'll have to go back and read a few of my posts to find out why I skipped you. On purpose. And trust me, I was laughing the whole time.
nerdsauce: You watch Battlestar Galactica, you'd prefer a gift card to Fry's over flowers and you have a picture of yourself in a school girl outfit. There's no way in hell the guys aren't climbing over each other to get to you! If their not, we all might as well pack it in, since it means the laws of the universe are beginning to unravel... | |

| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 7/27/2008 12:13:00 AM | [NOTE: These two requests come from message #222 & 223 on the previous page]
MUSCLESMAGOO: Your headline sucks. "Still waiting, getting bored?" You want to come across and impatient and impetuous? Score! And who cares if you're getting bored? If you get bored looking for love, try another hobby, like golf (it might give you a better chance at getting your balls near a hole). Your pictures are pretty good, but a lot of them are basically the same thing (do you need 3 images of yourself in the black cutoff shirt?) And don't take this the wrong way, but something about that shirt, the necklace and the glasses just looks kind of... well, gay. Anyone else reading this agree? And loose the shirtless pic - I know you think you're being ironic, but most women dislike shirtless pics and get turned off instantly.
Your "about me" is pretty good, although I am scratching my head wondering why someone who calls himself "Muscles" starts off with "I have an average build." How about changing your profile name to "Average Magoo?" Your first date essay really has to go. First of all, it's just too much. Too mushy, too sappy, too... well, too gay. Yes, girls like this sort of thing, but from guys they like. When a stranger suggests a back rub for the first date, women think "rapist."
Don't get me wrong, you seem like a good looking, decent guy and your profile is better than most - just a little tweaking of the pics and your "first date" essay and you'll be good to go.
SHAKER_247: Did you and Muscles go to the same school? Your headline needs to be kicked to the curb. "If you're really good, I might even cook?" WTF? These girls don't even know you, let alone care to be "really good" to you. It's very condescending and sets up a mentality of "I won't be a good guy to you unless you really deserve it." No offense, but big & tall/BBW guys are in no position to be so arrogant.
Your pictures are a mess. The first one, in which you're all sweaty, looks like a really bad Phillip Marlowe impression. Loose it. Then you have three snowboarding pics where one would suffice (you snowboard, we get it). The last one is the only picture that gives us an idea of what you're really like, and it's not a bad pic. Just get closer to the camera and post a few more. Now on to your essays...
Imagine sitting down on a couch, with a chilled crisp glass of white wine, getting ready to watch that movie you have been waiting to see, feeling way too full from that awesome pasta dish that we just had... Barf! Very pretentious. And who wants to imagine being way too full? Just drop it. And you don't need to say "a bit about me" in the section called ABOUT ME.
I have the perfect balance of... Please, no one should ever refer to themselves as being "perfect" in any way. If you were perfect, you'd be on someone's Favorites List! Take that ego down a notch. Honestly, I don't think you really have a big ego, but you're just trying too hard to sound like a great catch. Just be yourself, have a little humility and women will respond better. | |

| Mojo's Emmy-Award winning ANTI-REVIEW thread Posted: 7/31/2008 1:00:10 PM | Hi Mojo looks, like you have a well deserved Fan Club going. Kudos to You! I have the problem I'm sure thousands do, How to present myself in an accurate way, so as to draw like minded people toward me in Friendship and if there are Sparks or Not ......So Be It. My first complication is my age, doesn't match the common perception of who I am or should be. I have been single as much as coupled and often, ha! I know my strengths and weaknesses well, so I don't feel the need to Prove but still desire to Improve. I welcome your thoughts Rosanna Rosanna , Peggy | |
