Advice For My Friend In Arizona: Try Tucson Dating
The other day a friend of mine called me for advice. He had recently separated from his wife and taken a new job in Arizona. Inexperienced with the Tucson dating scene, he hit the bars. When that didn’t work he decided to take the plunge and see who he could meet online. When nothing seemed to pan out and he was almost ready to give up, he called me. He knew that I had been quite successful with my Internet hookups in the past and decided I would be his guru for this one. Always up for a challenge and thrilled at being held in such high esteem, I decided I would help him solve his problem and get him out there dating local singles.
Senior Singles Have Youth On Their Side
Imagine that you’re 65 years old and have been single for a few years now. You had ended, for whatever reasons, a relationship of over 30 years and had taken some time to yourself before getting back out there. Now you’re finally ready to find a new person in your life, so you decide to throw your hat in the ring and hit the senior singles scene. The first thing you discover is that while the principles of love, romance and attraction may be the same, the methods used to find it and the dating scene itself sure has changed since the last time you were available. The main shift being that quite a bit of senior dating these days happens online.
Hilarious Online Dating Site Disclaimers
Now that I’m done admonishing Spark Networks for their lifeless Facelink meta-search, I need to give them big props for adhering to the Internet Dating Safety Act guidelines.
Someone in the Spark legal department has a unique sense of 12-point bold font humor, I love this legal disclaimer on the bottom of the Facelink home page.
THANKS TO THE GREAT STATE OF NEW JERSEY, THE GARDEN STATE, HOME OF THE TURNPIKE, GOING DOWN THE SHORE, MYTHICAL HOME TO TONY SOPRANO, AND THE ONLY PLACE WHERE PEOPLE GREET EACH OTHER WITH “REALLY, WHAT EXIT YOU FROM?,” WE ARE TELLING YOU, SPARK NETWORKS LIMITED DOES NOT CONDUCT BACKGROUND CHECKS ON THE INDIVIDUALS WHOSE PROFILES CAN BE ACCESSED THROUGH THIS SITE. THE HOME OF THE BOSS HAS GOT YOUR BACK AND WE SUPPORT THEM 100%! NOW DON’T FUHGEDABOUTIT.
ROTFL. A hilarious response to an idiotic law proposed by True.com and their dense lobbyists. As a previous occupant of the great state of New Jersey, it pains me to see the legislature get the sheets pulled over their heads so easily.
New contest- whichever dating sites posts the best/funniest/most ridiculous dating site disclaimer will win major accolades here. The bar has been set pretty high, go send your legal team to the bar with the corporate credit card and don’t let them back into the building until they’ve written their disclaimer. I’ll post the best ones here.
Hot Mail Order Brides For A Friend
A good friend of mine, Jack, told me a few weeks ago that he was looking into hot mail-order brides online. This took me by surprise at first. I’m one of those people who look for love close to home. I don’t really have the patience or admittedly the guts to make a commitment to someone half a world away and hope for the best. This approach has always worked for me and until recently for Jack as well. While I may have wondered what it was like to take the plunge with foreign brides you meet on the Internet, Jack decided to take the bull by the horns and give it a shot.
WooMe Launches WooMeTV
WooMeTV went live today. The original Woome made it fun to jump into conversations with random people. But what about the rest of us who can’t make it into these videochats? WooMeTV is the logical progression of WooMe, basically an archive of WooMe sessions.
WooMeTV is for people have grown tired of looking at social network photos. Now we can watch videos of strangers talking to each other. Strangers doing strange and interesting things, cursing like sailors, taking their clothes off and generally acting like horny teenagers. WooMe understands the power of voyeurism and has morphed into a voyeurism network.
With WooMe TV, users can watch countless hours of raw content of real people meeting in live 60-second video clips. WooMe TV extends the mass appeal of reality TV with the interactivity, energy and engagement of user generated content on the internet. WooMe TV represents a new category of user generated content whereby the online experience itself becomes the focus. Users don’t tape, produce and upload content. Rather, the content is created as an organic part of WooMe’s online social experience where people meet for 60 seconds in live video chats. Whether people want to share their live interactions or simply be entertained by the video introductions of others, there is entertainment for every user.
I always seem to miss my WooMe sessions, or the phone rings, or my camera doesn’t connect. Now with WooMeTV, I can peruse archived Woo sessions, watching both participants in side-by-side video windows. No wonder the adult industry is slowing down online, look at all this free content on social networking sites.
The first video is of two people talking about what they are studying in school. Boring. The next one is of a woman in a bikini and her hot girlfriends talking to some guy, every other word is f*&ck and they are asking the guy to take his shirt off. I guess this is what passes for quality content. The amount of adult content and spam is going to be monumental. This is the future of user-generated content people, get used to it. Good luck to WooMe trying to keep the site clean.
How are WooMe videos selected for WooMeTV?
To participate in WooMe TV, users simply join any WooMe TV indicated session and chose whether to share the video with friends and the WooMe community once the session ends. Both participants have to opt in if they want their introduction to be included on WooMe TV. At the conclusion of each session, users are given the option to include their voice or video introductions on WooMe TV. If one party chooses to publish the introduction to WooMe TV the other participant will receive a notification asking if they agree. Only when both users have opted in is the video added to WooMe TV and available to share with friends. If one user wants to make the introduction video added to WooMe TV and the other does not, the video will never be added.
I can’t wait to see who becomes the most popular characters. You just know it’s going to be a bevy of hot saucy girls and shirtless guys talking good game. I think this game has already been played out on YouTube, the only difference is that on YouTube you have to watch another video to see the response. WooMeTV makes it easier to see both sides of the conversation at once.

Expelled from Match.com! How to Get Tossed Off the Popular On-line Dating Site
by Allen Smith.
Anyone who’s dipped their toes into the murky waters of the on-line dating scene will sprint away from the tide after learning that while there are plenty of fish in the sea, there are also plenty of nets. While learning about how the seamy underbelly of electronic dating is really manipulated, this investigative journalist found himself expelled from Match.com after going deep undercover into the popular Internet dating service.
I enrolled at Match.com using the pen name of “MrMarvelous” to judge the waters for myself. After blowing off an entire day’s work perusing the women within 100 miles of my zip code, seven major metropolises and all of the neighborhoods I’ve ever lived, it became readily apparent that of the 40 million single men and women who subscribe to on-line dating services, most are looking for the same thing and their profiles all read the same. So, to leverage myself against my male competitors and attract more than my fair share of the lovelier sex, I decided to create the following original member profile to flaunt my rapier wit. After all, isn’t that what women want: a man with a sense of humor?

Tom Selleck Look-a-like In Search of Love
Most Bizarre First Date
by Ye Xiaoyu.
Charles was one of those friends like dried meat; he will last forever if you keep it right. It was no wonder that when I told him I was back in the city he excitedly invited me to his birthday party. I had really wanted to finally meet his fiancé. The day he asked me I was sitting in my room, naked as usual, and made a decision right there. The path to recovery meant getting out and continuing my life where it left off.
The meal was uneventful except for Charles who ate a 32 oz steak single handedly after demolishing the appetizers. Charles was always this excited guy and the fact that he had not slept more than 3 hours in 3 days meant he was manic. His constant aerobic demonstrations made the rest of us who were out of shape and well rested feel jealous. Afterwards we ended up in his place, with me ignoring many phone calls wondering when I would get home.
We broke into two splinter groups, one that enjoyed World of Warcraft far too much and the rest of the people trying to be social by talking over Resistance: The Fall of Man as we passed the controller amongst ourselves. Charles and me started talking and eventually the topic returned to my current ‘funk’ as I describe it that way at most three times a month. “Man, you aren’t doing well” he said. I did not respond, I was tired of hearing myself say it. “How about I find you a girl?” he suggested. I laughed, probably a second too long judging by his reaction. “Maybe you should, all I know is that I’m oscillating between horny as hell and depressed.” I said. I picked up the beer bottle and took a long drink from it. Charles had that concerned look on his face. “You’re taking this pretty hard aren’t you?” he said in that slow tone that was unusual for him. I did not want to say anything, and I did not have to.
Does Match.com Promotes Infidelity?
by Zane Trae Kearney.
“It’s Okay to Look.” Only in certain contexts and situations could this slogan be construed as a truthful notion in the dating scene. In everyday conversations this phrase gets tossed around by men and women in relationships talking amongst their friends about the “hottie” they saw the other day in the parking lot. “Hey, it’s not cheating. It’s okay to look.”
There’s a fine line, however, between the hottie you saw by happenstance in the parking lot the other day and the hotties you’re looking at on the internet via dating websites. I’ll give you an example and we’ll see if you can distinguish the difference. To embody yourself into a setting, I was in a seemingly steady relationship for a year already. Ostensibly things were heading down the path of taking things to the never-ending “next level” and the sensation that I found “that one” was embedded in my thoughts.
