Eee hee hee hee! OK here’s what I posted in my profile on a dating site:
Currently I’m trying to figure out why people keep showing up on my blog and asking if I’m Ashton Kutcher….
…You should message me if: you know which text box to put the words in. (You’d be surprised by how many people don’t.)
And here’s the response I got from some poor schmuck who wanted to start conversation:
Hi, what do you mean by text box? I am not sure language has categories that words go into that everyone agrees upon. Did you mean tool box?

Mmm, yes. I’m sure I did mean tool box.
Oh, this guy’s a keeper, for sure. He claims to be 60 and a personal trainer, has no photo on his profile, and is listed as “seeing someone.” Oh, and lucky for us, he also says “I love to chat in chat rooms and i do like trying to express myself in writing. I love the internet.” Are you sure you didn’t mean internets?
So it appears I just don’t blog much over here anymore. Still trying to figure out how to balance the revelation/privacy fulcrum. Gumbaby’s going gangbusters, though — two posts a week now.

Easy: reveal!
What, you have some kind of problem with that? Why?
Also, “I am not sure language has categories that words go into that everyone agrees upon” needs to receive some kind of special award for dumbest sentence of the week.
Um… *you* were the one who shut down his blog because of tenure worries? I was only following your lead.
What, you mean I have to practice what I preach or something? I am not sure the internet has categories that blogs go into that everyone agrees upon.
Also, tenure? In my wildest dreams. Now that I scored my MLA FAIL for the year I should probably start blogging my ass off.
