On looking again, she says that she's looking for "anybody" for "friends" so maybe she doesn't realize it's a dating site? Maybe she's just looking for gaming buddies?
You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both.

[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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
oh no. I had lots of red flags on that one. Is it normal to have that many solo shots of the bride? Maybe she modeled for a bridal magazine. Not going to ask to find out. Too. Many. Red. Flags!
I'm trying to parse that theme. Was she marrying in the midst of glorious revolution?

Good luck with finding someone, omnis.
Great painting, Aims. And the room... big! (Or is the dog small?)
As for commas, I don't care: even though I learned to leave the comma outside of the quotation marks, as long as there is uniformity in the usage of it I'm a happy girl.
Started looking for a part time job (because I need to save money somehow to visit all of you!), and I just sent my resume to something I'd really like to do, so ~ma would be very appreciated.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

The dog is small. Like his brain.

Well, at least he's pretty.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I'm with Hec and omnis on the comma, sorry.
Definitely a wedding dress. Definitely a bizarre choice for a pic on a personals site. BTW, I don't think of OKCupid as exclusively a hookup site. I think it can be used for meeting friends, even if hookups are the main thing most people seem to be looking for.
Got MASSIVE headache from drinking OJ (first time ever for that) and had no choice but to go to bed early. Woke up at 3am. Couldn't get back to sleep. Gronk.

"Our forefathers fought a war so that we could put the comma inside the quotation marks. Don't let their sacrifices be in vain!"
Actually, I think it makes more sense outside, as does other punctuation that is not part of what you're quoting, but I had a boss once who sent the above to everyone in the office, and I sort of loved him for it.

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

I agree, but it looks so weird. Not just because of what I'm accustomed to (because I always have to think about it) but because the comma just sort of dangles when its outside an endquote.

Yes! This. What the hell, non-Americans (and American rebels)? Make things neat and tidy!
