Bonus points if you get the reference without using Google!

So I know what you're thinking, another ad from a 30 year old guy, Next! But wait. don't hit back, it's a trap! There are several things you should know about me before you do!

• I'm a sucker for a good pun and witty banter
• I can speak in multiple languages
• I'm totally awesome (and humble!)
• I'm a pro at rock paper scissors

I mean, really, who can turn down that package ?

Anyway, what I'm looking for is to make a few new friends. I love to chat over IM. Now, knowing this is Lit, I'm always down to chat about the sexy stuff, sure. But it's always so much better after you get to know someone.

So what are you waiting for? You can chat with that other guy who is bored, depressed, lonely, and lacking confidence, or you can make an epic friendship with me (we'd be the very best friends that anybody could ever have!). An awesome, confident, tall dark and handsome fella, who will somehow find a way to reference Arrested Development, Seinfeld, and countless others into every conversation.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Oohrah!!
There are way too many people who are bored on here. Guys who are happy and positive like you are a catch! You deserve a bump

Excellent ad! I hope the lack of bumps means you've found what you're looking for. But I'll bump it anyway, because I find the idea of a guy on here being swamped with messages quite amusing

Actually, he doesn't sound as articulate as he does arrogant.

Interesting! Is this based on personal interactions or how you perceived this ad?

It's always disappointing when someone you notice and strike a conversation with doesn't meet your expectations (I'm sure I've done this many a time to guys). But at the end of the day some personalities clash while others blend.

It would be a pity if you're right, though. We don't need any more arrogance than already struts around the place here. But hey ho, you win some and you shag some... I erm, mean, erm, lose some?

Welcome to the hangout. Keep in mind it was you who wrote the title so it must not work 40% of the time.
Just take your time and eliminate those times it might now work. Just write a lot of things about nothing and try to be happy.

I have not spoken with AnAmericanDarling. And it's a shame, because based on her previous posts it seems we would definitely get along well.

I wrote this up as a way to stand out. As a guy I have to market myself in a creative way, as it's significantly more challenging to get a PM. If I just write "Hey I'm new, can't wait to chat", I honestly wouldn't expect to get any messages. So that's why I wanted to come up with something fun to show off my personality.

Anyway, Tallulah, I appreciate your original bump of my thread, so thank you for that.

I think it's good that you've pointed out that you haven't spoken directly, so as not to have women reading this and making assumptions that you're not worth the effort. Text is often misread based on our own personal outlooks on life, and this is prime example - as I read it as funny, others (and I'm sure AAD is not alone) reads it with a different slant. As LF says, you can't win 'em all and yes, maybe it would help if you wrote more, whether here on your thread or on a different board. But I think you had the right idea, why blend in when you can stand out?

Anyways - I'm butting out now, lol. Happy playing
