I heard the metro guys really are like an abyss

6/16/2011 9:11:08 PM

you die trying to run up the dupont metro station escalator

lol

6/16/2011 9:11:14 PM

6/16/2011 9:14:16 PM

i'm sorry to put "lol" there but the mental image of you trying to run up the dupont metro station escalator and falling over is quite humorous

6/16/2011 9:14:50 PM

I did not find that humorous at all....

6/16/2011 9:18:09 PM

disagree

6/16/2011 9:22:25 PM

6/16/2011 9:24:36 PM

I was on the Red Line this week when the bomb threat got called in.

The interview did not go well anyway.

6/16/2011 9:35:45 PM

oh that stinks... yea gotta love DC

6/16/2011 9:36:53 PM

At least I wasn't on the exact train where it happened, I heard that was a clusterfuck.

Don't worry, if I'm in DC I won't bother any of you because I'll be too busy living in a homeless shelter.

6/16/2011 9:38:29 PM

^obvs. disappoint in teh gheyz

6/16/2011 9:42:49 PM

^^ lol you can stay with emce i hear he likes to spoon

6/16/2011 9:43:36 PM

I don't spoon. I ladle.

6/16/2011 9:45:47 PM

the italics are making me slightly uncomfortable

6/16/2011 9:46:38 PM

Haha. I was just trying to emphasize the difference but in retrospect I can see how that might be odd.

6/16/2011 9:47:12 PM

actually, almost anyone is welcome to stay on my couch or recliner for the night

almost...

6/16/2011 9:47:20 PM

I want half of my body on the couch and the other half on the recliner

6/16/2011 9:50:48 PM

that would require you being about 10 feet tall

6/16/2011 9:51:22 PM

i don't see that working for you

6/16/2011 9:51:28 PM

confidence
sense of humor
how laid back
interests

and thats all i got for now

Well, speaking as your very tall, blue eyed friend, I'm not interested.

6/16/2011 9:58:12 PM

you can sleep on my couch but you can only be like 5 feet tall to fit on it

6/16/2011 9:59:34 PM

So what you're saying is, neither I nor any normal-sized person can sleep on your couch.

6/16/2011 10:00:59 PM

only midgets and children

^ if you move up here we should hang out just to argue

I don't, it is just that I have same sex standards for what make an attractive man, but I am not sexually attracted to them.

^^Sounds good, though I'm not naturally an argumentative person. Various Soap Box Summits at Mitch's make that clear, you can ask people.

Now if only "International Studies" were a more readily employable masters degree...

6/16/2011 10:09:26 PM

here are the things i notice immediately...

he has dark brown hair...

he has blue has...

he has nice teeth...

i also notice legs and hands...

i have a thing about legs and hands on a man

[Edited on June 16, 2011 at 10:11 PM. Reason : height and build to a lesser degree but i lean toward tall and skinny]

[Edited on June 16, 2011 at 10:12 PM. Reason : oh yeah...and he must be SMOKING hot ]

6/16/2011 10:11:09 PM

^^ well then that's just no fun

the arguing things, not the into dudes thing

6/16/2011 10:12:47 PM

teeth, finger/toe nail length, breath, weight, voice

all things i must know about before i can determine whether or not a man is attractive

6/16/2011 10:15:59 PM

haha bullshit liar


thats not attractiveness, thats compatability/datability

girls judge a guys looks immediately just like guys do with chicks

"well then that's just no fun"

I guess I can argue I'm just way more polite about it in person, which makes it feel fake to me. I'm spoiled by TSB.

All these people mentioning teeth... . Mine are clean but far, far too small. It's probably the only thing I'm self-conscious about.

6/16/2011 10:19:12 PM

i can't really make a definitive snap judgment like that. there's initial appearance but i must know other things before i can determine if i would actually bed him.

6/16/2011 10:19:59 PM

i pretty much know within 5 minutes of meeting a guy if i would like to have sex with him or not

6/16/2011 10:21:36 PM

thats fuckability then

attractiveness is a snap judgement.


good for you though, not fucking dudes with jacked finger/toe nails. they shouldnt get poon

i dated a guy that would always forget to clip his toenails and when he accidentally would kick me... holy fuck it was painful

6/16/2011 10:23:31 PM

LP78 did you write something about how you would be like "YUP" 2 minutes after meeting me?

6/16/2011 10:24:05 PM

maybe

This.

Some of my particulars, but in no particular order.
Personality
- Sense of Humor. Jeff Dunham is not funny. Louis C.K. is.
- Open minded
- Has a good work ethic. Nothing turns me off more than someone who constantly calls in to work or is a lazy ass.
- Not religious
- Can respect what I do for a living
- Not afraid to get dirty
- Can carry on a comfortable conversation. Must know the difference between an intelligent discussion and being an argumentative ass.
- Likes to cook or will at least try
- Beer and wine snobs are most welcome
- Must like animals
- Has something that they are passionate about. Their job, a series of books, fishing, a particular film genre, a particular band, whatever - I love to see someone's eyes light up when they are excited about something and can't wait to tell you.
- Can keep up with my libido

Physical
- Eyes. Case by case basis, but I especially pay attention to eyes when the guy is laughing. I'm a sucker for those crinkles.
- Hands. No soft, girly hands please.
- I do like the scruff, so facial hair is a big plus but not necessary.
- General build. I think I like a baseball player physique the most, nice arms and legs. Yum.
- Oral hygiene with a nice smile
- Voice
- Can rock a t-shirt and jeans *drool*
- I'm short so I usually don't have a problem meeting people taller than me
- I generally like 'em older

My ideal guy is pretty much Mike Rowe

i just now realize this is a thread about what is immediately noticed


mine:


height (tall is goood)

skin/complexion. (olive but pale skin & dark hair = YES)

build. (i like my boys skinny and cut, or with just a little fluff)

smile (decently nice smile please and make sure to smile with your eyes!!!! i love a good squinty eye )

im a sucker for super chisled features too. stong jawline and cheekbones.




as i typed this i though of a few of the superficially hottest people i know (including celebs) and thought...... what immediately attracted me to him?


this is not 100% accurate but its probably pretty comparable.


[Edited on June 16, 2011 at 10:30 PM. Reason : ^oh god if we're talking about personality attributes i can go on for like 3 pages ]

6/16/2011 10:28:38 PM

i guess when i made my original thread i was thinking of attractiveness in a overall sense versus 1st impressions of their physical appearance. oh well, it's all relative.

6/16/2011 10:33:00 PM

relatives are attractive

6/16/2011 10:33:44 PM

oh gosh.


100% agree that personality makes a person. end of story.


but if i am snap judging appearance-thats what i think...

6/16/2011 10:34:14 PM

i'm a horribly shallow and judgmental person...

and i really have no right to be

6/16/2011 10:37:25 PM

They have to have straight teeth and a nice smile. Pretty eyes help a lot too.

6/16/2011 10:56:59 PM

where does boner size fit into chicks' equations? cause hopefully its very far down the list

6/16/2011 10:59:01 PM

if you have made it to that point than i may be willing to forgive some shortcomings
