that one picture
sorta looks like you’re wearing ‘fashion lederhosen’. I’m sorta sad that I probably couldn’t ‘pull off’ that look.

I knew a guy who only had a thumb on one hand. It looked really weird. He was from the Ukraine, we would see him at the ukrainian catholic church just down the road where we went to by perogies every wednesday. He was in charge of the raffle tickets. He told me stories about the war and such. Then he would give me old/broken toys and my sister slightly used/dirty stuffed animals. Kinda weird but oddly charming. He had a friend he would always hang out with, often he would quack like a duck. We called him ‘Duckman’.
comixxxxxxxxxxxxx
realized all those x’s can be interpreted as ‘porno related’. this message is not supposed to be that way. I usually express exuberance through additional consonants.
Either way, think it’s rad you like Comics and all because you seem all socially well adjusted and such and I guess in a way ‘defy the stereotype’ that comic readers don’t shower/are mouth breathers/drool/etc.
Are you familiar with any of Chris Ware’s work? He’s by far my favorite comic author/artist and I basically always end up talking with everyone about him. I think it’s because I secretly feel I don’t know enough about comics and try to start the comic related convos ‘guns a blazin’ in order that people think I know what I’m talking about. I don’t, I studied german, linguistics, music and russian, so nothing where I feel as though I possess the tools to ‘analyze and/or discuss art while feeling I am well informed’.
I guess basically this message can be summed up that I think you seem/are pretty rad via your internet profile and wouldn’t mind having an ‘online dialogue’. Think we could probably be internet friends or something. sorry if this message is creepy/sends chills up your spine, it wasn’t the intention.

not being able to ride a bike is a little bit sad, and I’m sure you’re more than capable. Not sure if the e in your name is long or short, my education always causing me to overthink these things.

not tall, not tall by any means, but most certainly intrigued by your knowledge of languages I have limited experience with/in.
Actually reminds me of something I considered while composing what is supposed to be my profile in other languages. Did you also feel kinda lame/sorta like a douche/just a little pretentious when doing so? Kinda feel like that maybe people will interpret it too much as ‘showing off’.
Is Austin as cool as it’s supposed to be? Am I missing out on significant cultural experiences because I have my American home base in a different city? Is texas as insane as the stereotypes perpetuate?
In fact, the only people I know who’ve spent a considerable amount of time in Texas are Russians who were there on exchange programs, they tended to stay in small towns, feel like their perspectives could be warped.
scrabble
If I were currently anywhere near philadelphia, I would totally challenge you to scrabble, and it would be very competitive.

So why would a lady like yourself from the other side of the country view my profile. Sorta wish you had messaged or ‘winked’ at me (ironically of course). Sorry if I don’t send you pictures of my penis, I know you want them but this computer doesn’t have bluetooth (lol).
I like international travel too. in fact, I am currently writing this message from a hostel in Warsaw, Poland. No lie, I promise.
I’m actually really happy that my knowledge of russian has allowed me to be able to pretty accurately read things here. It’s helpful in restaurants and supermarkets. Also helpful when trying to order food from sweet old ladies in these things called ‘milk bars’. The name makes me think of a clockwork orange.
This message is sort of a disaster. Think you look cute in your pix, think that’s the point. Think it would be nice to talk to you on the internet. I guess you get to decide via responding/not responding.

I’m really trying to think of something relatively clever to say, being that your profile has revealed to me that you’re apparently ‘very selective’ when it comes to responding to messages. I get hesitant when it comes to those, think it means that you get tons of messages and then don’t respond to most of them. I think this way because when one doesn’t receive messages back from people one finds interesting it ends up being a small blow to one’s self esteem….or something like that.
So why I decided to get in touch with you…. I guess I would have to admit it was the somewhat extremely descriptive passage about your sexual tendencies, I am a human and male after all. Also the idea that you like brains and are an artist and like things ‘beyond your corner of the world’. I like things like that too. As far as the internet is concerned, we could at least be pretty good friends. But I’m getting ahead of myself.
I’m going to go ahead and say that I think it’s funny that I’m currently messaging you from a hostel in Warsaw, Poland. I also think it’s ridiculous that I even continue to use OKcupid while I’m not living in Philly , or even america for that matter. I guess I’m attempting to line up some sort of ‘good date’ for when I return in august. Also probably because the site is kinda fun.
I think we probably like similar books. Probably similar music. I don’t really know enough about art to claim similarity in taste there but I do enjoy it. I’d like to think you appreciate comic books (the good ones). I hope that you like cheesy sci-f i flicks in addition to apocalyptic ones. I’m thinking Zardoz or Plan 9 from outer space. I guess to put it simply, I think that establishing a dialogue with you is a good idea. Hopefully you agree and find me cool/interesting/not creepy.
I wanted to see what my messages looked like outside the context of a dating website. Upon rereading/reflection, they all seem to be kinda weird/borderline creepy [maybe it's just my embarrassment].
Can you tell which ones did/did not get responses?
