Missed Connections Monday: Part Dos

Aaaannnnnddddd we're back. It's seems like last Monday was forever-ago, but here's another edition of Craigslist Missed Connections (last week's post for you slackers). A quick recap - people post descriptions of attrative people they've seen, but failed to talk to. Nothing like a little computer screen courage.

Let's get right to it.

Post # 1 - Subject: "Charlie's Kitchen then your place. About a year ago. - m4w - 30"

"Hey. Your name begins with A. We met at Charlie's one weekend about a year ago and went back to your place. We were both awfully drunk. Haven't run into you since. Are you still in the area?"
Wow. I guess this guy took Seth Rogen's advice from the 40 Year Old Virgin. He practically waited until the next Olympics to call this chick. Most people want to forget random hook-ups, but not this guy. When he says, "Your name begins with A" does he actually not remember her full name? Or is he just trying to protect her identity? I think I know what's going on here, this guy hit a little bit of a dry spell and was trying to find someone who would be an easy target. My advice - give it up dude. How many female names start with "A" - Alex, Amy, Angelica, Angela, Angelina, Abby, Ariana...you get the picture. And how many people from "Charlie's" have had a one night stand? You're not giving potential chicks a lot to work with and you'll never find your girl. And even if you did, you probably wouldn't want to see her. Beer goggles are a helluva drug.

Bonus post - Subject: "Rear-ended by cute girl on rotary - m4w - 20"

"on thursday, you hit my car while getting on the rotary. we both pulled over, you got out of your car. i asked if you were okay, and you said that you were fine. Good thing there was no damage! but i kind of wish i got your number. you were really cute and had a beautiful smile.
tell me where it happened, what car you were driving, and anything else so i know its you. i kinda hope you see this :)"
This guy totally blew it. He had a golden chance. Usually, nothing good comes from rotaries, but in this case, this dude had a damsel in distress delivered to him on a platter. He seems like a nice guy because he asked if she was ok, but he should have followed it up with "Are you lost? Because heaven's a long way from here." Or "Can I have directions?...to your heart." Saying anything would have been better than to just get back in your car and drive away. And what a half-assed effort too. "I kinda wish.." Make it seem like you care a little more buddy! Go big or go home right? Well this guy went home. Empty handed.

Once again I award you no points...You had your shot, a perfect opportunity. And you missed it.
