Danrambles’s Weblog

Since becoming single a couple of months ago, I’ve been able to do things that I haven’t been able to do for a while… besides the obvious (like fucking strangers).  I suddenly find myself at bars that I typically wouldn’t go to, or checking out websites that I forgot had even existed.  Reading the posts on craigslist.com’s ‘missed connections’ section has become part of my daily ritual.  Oftentimes, I hope to see something written about me from some random place I was at the day before, like the laundromat or gas station, if for no other reason that for an ego boost.  Since I’ve only ever seen one posting about me, and that was over a year ago, I at least get entertainment from the ridiculous postings of others.  “I saw you from across the food court at the mall.  You didn’t notice me or see me, but if you’re interested in meeting, write me back.  Would love to suck you off like you were sucking on that slushie.”  That could’ve gone without the quotes, since I made it up… but they really are just as ridiculous.  Does saying shit like that on a web posting actually get anyone laid?  The worst site for this is gay.com’s chat rooms.  I haven’t been on that site for over two years, but the last couple of weeks have checked it out.  I truley had no intentions of hooking up or anything by going on the site… I just really wanted to see if it had changed at all since I had been on years before.  Everything about the chat room was absolutely the same… and many of the people’s images I remembered from my last sign in during ‘06.  The things people come up with to say in there are so amazing.  A simple ‘horny?’ somehow replaces ‘hello’ as a greeting.  ‘You looking?’ is said more often than ‘the’ is used.  Is anyone on this site actually getting laid from these lines?  I can’t imagine being so filled with horniness that I’d sign into a chat room and drive to meet the first person asking me if i’m randy.  Well…maybe if he used the word randy I would, simply because it’s way more fun to say. 

I’ve never heard of a friend talking about meeting some great guy from gay.com… nor have I heard someone talk about the hot sex he had with someone whose cock size was known from a screen name before his real name was said.  Maybe I’m blind to the gay.com world, and in reality people are getting laid daily from the site.  I’m sure the hookers that sign on are doing well.  I think from my short-lived experience I’ll stick with giving flirty looks to guys at bars or stores… the craigslist and chat room thing are just a little too bizarre… even for me.  If anyone has a great story of hooking up from one of these sites though… please fill this apparently old-fashioned boy in…
