I've never really been charmed with the concept of dating - from a male perspective, it's a lot of money dishing, manners faking, and means-to-an-end fibbing.
I don't like faking; I don't like lieing; and above all else, dating feels like paying for company. Who wants to go through all that when the process itself doesn't produce the desired results (making it irrelevant)?
Dating is as much a burden and boredom for the decent guys as it is for the decent women. Everything would be so much easier if you could just put down on a slip of paper all your standards and requirements in the Perfect Other, put it in a box, and fate would just magically produce said person.
Then again, if it was really that easy, it'd take some of the fun out of the whole process, wouldn't it? =)

Hush, Martin; you're making fun of my "everyone should submit their romantic resume and three character references" school of dating. :)

Really, Terence, how can you not question why a restaurant, of all things is called Quaker Steak and Lube? It sounds a little … kinky. But maybe that’s just the sexually-deviant little voice in my head talking.
In other heartwarming news, Ars pulls through again for one of its own. And yours truly just broke into the top 500 of Team Lamb Chop this week, so go TLC!
This is a tremendously disjointed entry, and I will try to improve on it after my first cup of coffee.
