Who would you date?

I know I tend to write a lot of shizzle about The Bachelor without ever having truly watched it, but that’s because I’m truly fascinated by it. 25 men/women vying for the attention of one ‘Bachelor’ or ‘Bachelorette’, who, by the way, is probably making out with at least half of his or her wannabe loves. In the words of the great Peter Griffin (of Family Guy fame), it really grinds my gears when I see any of these clowns pledge eternal love on a TV show…and give those that have ‘made the cut’ a ROSE of all things to advance to the next round. How trite and corny can you get? These people obviously haven’t heard of Dorothy Parkermore…

KLM to introduce an in-flight matchmaking service

Ever since I took my first trip to Europe at the age of 17, I’ve had extraordinary luck with my seatmates. I was on a high school trip with the school’s two foreign language professors (Conrad Beaulieu RIP) and ended up sitting far away from my classmates and next to a hot Swedish male model, who didn’t mind talking to a chubby, earnest, straight-edged teenager for the entire flight. I was in heaven. This is not to say that I end up sitting next to male perfection every single time — I’ve had my share of phot0-sharing grannies and proud new parents, too — but I’ve never been sat next to anyone who smelled bad, drooled on my shoulder or farted in his sleep. In fact, I even dated a South African dude I met on the way home from Miami’s Winter Music Conference in 2010. But I digress. If you never seem to have any luck with meeting men in air, you’re now in luck: KLM is launching an in-flight matchmaking service called Meet & Seat…and no, guys, this does not mean you’ll be guaranteed membership in the Mile High Club. more…

Think you’ve got it rough? One writer explores dating customs in seven different countries — and what you’ll find out may shock you

We all complain about dating. The men in New York City are too focused on their careers. The guys in Los Angeles are too focused on their looks — and so on and so forth. But based on what one dater, Anastasia Savvnna, has discovered in seven different countries, you might want to think twice before you grouse that dating in the good, old U.S. of A. is the worst place to date in the world. more…

If you dig a guy who’s perpetually off his face and likes to eat a lot of brownies, here’s where you’ll find them in mass quantities — especially today!

For those of you who smoke, happy 420 day! You might wonder, ‘why in the hell is Laura discussing marijuana on a site that’s all about looking for love?’ And to that I would say, ladies, to each her own. Some of you like guys who dress like hippies or have dreads or can make you a rad space cake (you also must not mind that weed makes a guy almost physically unable to get it up. But again, to each her own). more…
