Here's what it would say:
43 yo gay swm looking for love. Me: Short, balding and paunchy with lots of life baggage, emotional and otherwise. Into photography, day hikes in the mountains, Lego building and movie watching. You be: Under 30, incredibly good looking in a Neil Patrick Harris kind of way, and fit. Must be willing to tolerate a moody, hard-to-please, middle-aged dude whose idea of an exciting weekend is watching the Star Wars Trilogy (the real ones from pre-1990) and reading books. Must love Beagles and sleeping with a fan on all night.
And that is why I don't do personal ads.

ReplyDeleteYou never know... That internet is world-wide!

Except for the moody part, it sounds pretty good!
ReplyDeleteShame, though, about the under 30 thing.
* le sigh *
I didn't know you served in Québec, though! I served under Dickson, 90-92. Cap Rouge, Repentigny, Hochelaga, St Eustache, Hull, St Jean sur Richelieu.
Small, small world …
@Miguel: Always the optimist! That's what I love about you.
ReplyDelete@Silus: Well, I'm flexible on the 30 thing. Just a hypocrite. Can't be an out of shape, smelly old coot like me :).
Me: Rasband 88-89. Kingston, Riviere-du-Loup, St. Leonard, Quebec City, Charlesbourg and Verdun. Would have liked to have gone to Hull (yuck, yuck)- or somewhere in the Ottawa area. Small world indeed!
"Can't be an out of shape, smelly old coot like me"
ReplyDeleteWait, but you wish that upon an under 30-something in shape, non-smelly & non-coot? At least give the older, smellier, cootier (sp?) crowd a chance, their senses are not as keen and they might be able to forgo all the other stuff too, just sayin' Mon Amie!
Hugs-again,Miguel
okay ... I had as much fun reading the comments (and xchanging mission areas) as I did the "personal ad".
ReplyDeleteThanks. Fun stuff going on. Fun stuff.
