Personal Ads II

Let's analyze (ever since 10th grade, when I see that work I think pornindustry dirty) what these latest personal ads tell us about the people who wrote them.

Aint No Mountain High Enough Energetic, college grad seeking a conversationalist. If you like to talk, talk, talk and talk some more, drop me an email. Age: 21

First, what the hell does the mountain have to do with talking. Second, do not use the word "aint" and then tell me you are a college graduate. You are either lying, or you did not do very well. These are not issues you want to bring up at the beginning of a relationship. Third, people who say they are looking for conversationalist are usually looking for an audience. So if I were to contextualize this ad, it would go something like this:

I use meaningless sayings to suggest that I have a positive attitude, so I can blame the you for not really believing in the relationship when it goes sour. I think that I am awesome even though I cannot back it up, so I need someone to verbally beat into believing it to validate my inflated self-esteem. If you are that person, drop me a line.

Now for number two.

Ill be your couch potato if youll [sic] be mine. Lets [sic] spend Sundays watching the Browns, watching the sun go down and talking about our future. Age: 31

Contextualized Ad....

I'm a fatty. I need someone who will not challengee my fragile sense of self-worth, and I am desperate/lonely enough to do anything to keep you. Let's talk about our imminently developing, physically debilitating health issues.

If you ask me, that's hot.
