31 July 2012

Seen in an OK Cupid profile.... "Angelina Jolie is a not-too-distant cousin of mine and yes, I'd still do it."
Ewwwwwww.

Still do what?

I take it you sent him a wink, Orange Swan?

I left him strictly alone, actually.

I always worry what horrible things people think about my OKC profile.

And sometimes, I want to try to rewrite it to sound as horrible as possible, for fun.

Oh my word.

Really not ok. At all. Really.

What really bothers me is that it's such an appalling way to talk about one's cousin, not-to-distant or otherwise.

if i remember the entertainment news story of a couple years ago, Angi had no problem deeply frenching her brother at an awards show. Maybe this sort of thing runs in the family.

It is legal for cousins to marry in every state in the US. It's just the Westermark effect that keeps people from dating their siblings or kids they grew up with.

I hope you are just looking on okc for fun because it's really nothing like meeting people in person. Go out more, unless you have very specific tastes that necessitate screening thousands of applicants at a time. In which case, be very specific in your language. Canada is sparse, though.

I'm assuming that profile is old, because Angelina is.

That's a matter of perspective, cjorgensen.

Angelina Jolie is a little past 37, cjorgensen, and I'm nearly two years older than her.

I haven't met anyone in real life that I've gotten at all involved with over 13 years now. For that matter, I haven't met anyone online for over 5, but even at that it seems like a better way to meet people.

I do go almost everywhere I am asked, but I hardly ever get a chance to go out, and then there's no one I could possibly date when I do go anywhere. The last time I went to a party, which was nearly a year ago, there were only two cute guys at it. There was an empty seat between them, so I took it, and they were very nice and friendly.... and very eager to tell me all about their wedding of just two weeks past. And that's pretty much always the way it is for me.

"old" does sound dismissive, doesn't it?

I was mostly making a joke, but there was also some offensive and obnoxious social commentary thrown in that I apologize for. Mostly, I was sort of a bit surprised Jolie is who someone picked out as a person to single out as a sex symbol, but partly that may have been dictated by the fact she actually is his cousin.

I don't much follow the celebrity cult thing, but I would think the current "lust object" would be someone half her age, like the Twilight cheater woman or Scarlett Johansson playing a sweater or whomever. For better or worse Jolie is being replaced. Soon she will be trying too hard like Madona.

I'm just feeling mean.

Funny, I just watched the re-run of 30 Rock where Liz meets the dream man and he ends up being her 3rd cousin...
