I’m feeling lazy today, so I just wanted to share some crazy messages I’ve received since joining the amazing website StumbleUpon. I love this website, but some of the people who find me on it are… interesting. There are quite a few messages regarding my religious affiliation (agnostic), but I’m not going to include them. It’s just one of those touchy subjects that I’m done talking about until someone asks me a new question. You know how I feel about stuff like that. Let’s leave it there.
“Hi from New Zealand – great to see we share similar interests – dear old Mother Nature needs all the friends it can get right now – take care
Wish you a great 2008.”
“i think u are in my heart besides
the specail about you is how are look like
u look like a kind person and very cute”
(with this particular person I got to have a long, crazy conversation. All of his quotes will be in this color so as not to confuse you.)
“Hey, friend,
the flowers are
all gone,
and the sunshine
is hiding in
the wintery sky,
so I wanted to
send you a
warm hug and
some sunshine
to let you know
you’re in my
thoughts today.
I’ll do my best
to send you
the warmth of summer
when winter winds
come your way.
besides i wish to be ur friend”
“bcos i love you baby girl” (This was his response to my indignation regarding his proposal of marriage. Oh, internet. You’re such a creeper)
“hi,
I was wondering if maybe U could help me : I’m looking for a book from Alberto Moravia but I am not really sure if I got the right title : “the woman with the black cape”.
Do U know where I could possibly find this or do U know some good links to search books? Txs, Grtz, Lou”
“Lemme tell you about my luck: My ex-wife managed to run up $5000 on my credit card, overdrafted my checking account by $3000, then, cost me a promising Air Force career by forcing me to choose between it and custody of my son. My ex-girlfriend, who is also the mother of my daughter broke up with me (but is still living in my house) because I’m not violent enough in the bedroom. Then, I meet this awesome girl online, we’re just chatting, but everything is clicking – Absolutely perfect girl for me, except for one problem: She already has a girlfriend.” (Funny story… this guy ended up explaining geometry to me. He was very nice.)
I’ve met some interesting people on this website. A girl from Sweden who wanted to learn English (we were friends for a while), a boy who claimed to be in love with me while at the same time claiming to be undergoing a sex change (I’m not gonna go into that one), a creepy old man, and plenty of fun boys with broken English who told me I was beautiful.
(Keep in mind, all of this transpired several years ago. I was like fifteen. Yeah, yeah, lectures, gots to be safe on the internet, whatever. Nothing happened, right? I’ve learned my lesson.)
