Crazy but True…’Beautiful’ People Only Dating Site rejects "Fatties"!

5 Jan, 2010 | Online Dating World

Dating is complicated enough.

And, I have nothing against people who possess a quiet confidence & feel that they are beautiful. Nothing wrong with a healthy self-esteem…

But online dating sites should not make it even more complicated for us in the World-O-Singledom to meet other potential partners just bc we ate a little extra pumpkin pie over the Holiday season.

COME.ON.NOW.

Shout-out to @JensDatingTips for sharing this newsflash on Twitter!

DALLAS – S OURCE

A couple of 20-Somethings were cruising through the West Village in Dallas and were disgusted when they heard about actions of a dating website called BeautifulPeople.com. The site just kicked out about 5,000 members for gaining weight over the holiday season.

“You know, I just don’t think that’s fair,” said Hillary Kinzler. “Everybody gains weight after the holidays.”

But, the founders of this hotties only website think it is fair. “Letting fatties roam the site is a direct threat to our business model and the very concept for which BeautifulPeople.com was founded,” said Robert Hintze, founder of BeautifulPeople.com

The members were kicked out when they posted updated photos on the site for the new year showing that they packed on a few pounds. BeautifulPeople.com is also predominately member driven. If you want to get into the dating site you have to submit a picture and put in your profile. Then members get about two days or so to decide if you’re beautiful enough to join them.

Uhm, CEO’s using the term ‘Fatties’? Really? Your thoughts, dahlings…

The Staten Island Bridezilla…hater of Po’ Folk!

21 Oct, 2009 | Friend-iquette, Video

Ok, I HAD to do a post on this Cah-Ray-Zee chick bc I was born & raised on Staten Island (one of the 5 NYC boroughs, for those who’ve never heard) and lived there until 17 – the age I started undergrad at NYU & moved into the city. Thank GOD.

Besides ranting about how much she hates, EVERYTHING, this S.I. Bridezilla is obsessed with money and how much everything costs…

This crazyee beoyatch represents everything that is wrong with Shao-Lin.

In one moment, she refuses to apologize to the doorman @ Marqee in Chelsea, bc he won’t let her come into the club with her bridal head gear (veil). She blasts him with a bitch-ass response, which in turn makes him refuse to let her & her bridal party into the club…

Enjoy lovelies!

Thoughts???

Crazy but True: Nightmare on EX Street…

19 Oct, 2009 | Ex-Factor

DUDE!

WTF is up with my crazy EX-EX incessantly calling me ALL DAY (like over a 100 times – I’m DEAD serious) and leaving like 30 VM’s.

Obviously he knew it was my Bday but seriously – GO the F AWAY!

And to TOP it off, I have to listen to the first few seconds of each VM in order to delete each one. So even though I’m not hearing the whole message, I’m feeling the attitude behind each one.

Let me share with you a verbal montage of his VM bullshit:

Late Morning (in an irritated voice): “MG, why can’t you just pick up…”

Early Afternoon (somewhat sad): “Look, I just want to say…”

Mid Afternoon (through a soft weep): “I can’t believe your ignoring…”

Late Afternoon (realizing he’s insane): “This is my LAST call…”

Early Eve (EXTREMELY irritated): “This is bullshit!…”

Mid Eve (back to sad): “Why are you doing this…”

Late Eve (trying to sound sane): “Ha-ha, oh come on…”

Almost Midnight (sounding hurt): “Your Bday is almost o…”

OMG. Leave me alone please. It’s been 4 YEARS. Yes, FOUR years. Get a grip already…DAMN!

Anyone else have a similar craptastic experience with an EX???

still annoyed,

Ridiculously Random… Snuggie lovin’??

30 Sep, 2009 | Uncategorized

This is completely out of no where but I had to post it…LOL!

Just as fast as October has arrived, so has the chill factor here. It’s chilly as hell and I was thinking it would be a cute idea to get my mom (who always feels cold) a Snuggie, since it now comes in…PINK! And for those of you who think it’s ridiculous - the guy who it invented the Snuggie -which is actually just ‘a robe worn backwards’ – is now a multi-millionaire from it – DDD-DAMN!

Target had one on sale (now sold out) but I still looked at some of the reviews just for hell’s sake…and this is one that I found (sorry – I refuse to spell check other peeps verbage!):

Snuggie Fleece Blanket As Seen On TV review from Target:

“Terrible” August 30, 2009 Reviewer: Nice lady “jessica n” (fl)

“This is terrible i put it in with a load of whites and it turned all of my clothes blue. Then my dog urinated on it and the smell would not come out. When i was sheading papers the sleave got in the shreader and started a fire; so i went to to grab the extinguisher and tripped over the the snuggie i was wearing.”

I.AM.DYING.

Talk soon loves!

p.s. don’t forget to enter my giveaway - the winner will have their headshot digitally reproduced – HELLO- awesome!!!! XOXO

Current Stat: I Now Know Why the Jerkface Pool has Gotten Deeper.

2 Sep, 2009 | Online Dating World

Sooo… remember my “Double Dose Of Nonsense” post from a few days ago? Well make that quadruple dose -

A. Let’s begin with this Saturday, when I received yet another heartwarming text from Phone-O-Phone:

‘Hey – Are you doing anything tonight?’

Go Away.

B. Let’s us now move on to Misc Finance Guy, who so kindly contacted moi after his very important week long trip to FL, of which he needed to give me a break-down via text:

‘Hey! Key West was a good time. Did some fun water sports. Day trips also. How are you?’

Go away.

C. Last and the least interesting, let’s conclude the jerkface pool gathering (for this eve) with Lie R. McShaydee. Remember- from waaay back in MARCH? The jf who kept making all kinds of crazy excuses for not calling (even though he asked me for my contact info – another one!). For ex: I’m at my niece’s party (at 9:30pm on a wkdy??), my friend’s sister died….BULL-ah, BULL-ah.

Well, McShaydee sends me an email last night:

‘Hey! Sorry I hadn’t gotten back to you. I lost my phone with your number. I’d love to get back in contact with you. Hope you’re doing well ’

Go Faaar Away. Please.

You guys know I have been doing this online dating thing for sometime now right? And even though some (most) of the relationships do not work out (for good/bad reasons,whatever it may be), the point is there was an opp for a date-ship. Not this high school crap. I couldn’t figure out why this particular season was soo saturated with guys who were flaky. Then I read on the dating site:

It is now free to LOOK & BROWSE on this site.

Well there ya go! Even though an unpaid member can’t contact someone, they can peruse all they want and then jump into contact after payment. This is different than paying upfront, which most (not all) of the time separates those who are seriously looking to date and those who just want to “hook-up”. Gross.

My specific online dating pool has officially been taken over by the J.F.’s. For now anywayz.

I’m not feeling so great about this online dating thing anymore…;-(

no kissies today,

p.s. for those who are not on Twitter, my gf send me this to warn y’all of the psychos that are out there – pure insanity: http://melodymaker.posterous.com/the-reason-some-girls-stay-single-very-funny
