Guy on OKC: Nice pin up and Nice cat… How are you ? I m french in LA… What about you ?

Me: No pictures, eh? I’m a quarter Greek in Ojai.

Guy: I can Send you pics out of here if you Want … Kik or txt Phone ?

Me: Have you met people who don’t want to see pictures?

Guy: I m movie director so u know … I dont need This site to meet girls … They run after me… Models and actresses… Here Its to meet strangers Its Very interesting …

Me: You don’t need a dating site, you’re just here to meet strangers…..for what, exactly?

Guy: For What ? I dont know … Love or sexy things … Depend people … I ld prefer both… You?

Me: The women throwing themselves at you aren’t good enough?

Guy: What ?

Me: If you have women throwing themselves at you then why are you on a dating site looking for love and sex?

Guy: Ok good night … Ask it in your dreams… Too complicated girl for me

Me: Riiiiiight….good luck “directing movies” then.

Guy: Thks… Kiss from a french Guy in LA

When “models” and “actresses” don’t cut it for you and you need to troll the internet for strange to engage in “sexy things” with… you might be full of shit. On so, so many counts.

Hey, I filmed my cat doing cute shit on my phone, am I a director now, too? Duh. Of course I am.
