When my OKCupid profile says specifically that I prefer my dates to be taller than I, why in the world would a guy who is 5'4" send me an icebreaker?
Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Did he mention he didn't think he qualified? I once poked at a guy whose criteria I didn't meet (not sure on what, maybe age), but I copped to it in the email. I figured better to seem contrary (because I am) than inattentive (which I also am, but why let the cat out of the bag so soon?).

Always Anti-fascist!
Well, maybe he thought you matched well in every other way?

we did match in a lot of ways, but I specifically say that it's a dealbreaker if he's shorter. It's the one physical characteristic that I'm shallow about.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Maybe he thinks you're wonderful and he's hoping against hope that you'll take a look at him.

OK Cupid also matched me with someone and said "we've selected you for a mystery icebreaker because you both like Twilight"
WTF? not just no, not just HELL No, but HELL THE FUCK NO!.
BTW, his message was
I like Twilight because its a story of true love that go beyond boundries and i think in love there should be no Borders or Boundries that there is enough love for lots of people
I also say no bad grammar or spelling. Yes, picky, but we all know that I'm a grammar nazi. Is it any wonder I'm single?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

My sistah! Not enough word in the world.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Oooh I know this one! Let me translate: "I like Twilight because I fancy myself Edward and think controlling behavior shows true love. Also, I want to sleep with other people with no consequences!"
You're welcome!

Compassionately intolerant
I get those messages on Ok now and then. This one I read as, "I am a grasper of straws, whose straws are tightly grasped."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You can't see the person's profile when you send an IceBreaker. All you know is that you have a common interest.
