It's
A Gamble
Eh?
Even after reading this numerous times, I still can't figure
it out. What's he trying to say? Why'd he write to her?
Jen:
Here's another brainiac. I wonder if anyone responding to
my ad even read it. I'm looking for people in L.A. to hang
out with. My first two responses are from a guy in Ohio would
would be "willing" to write to me (I mean, jeesh,
thanks for this incredible opportunity...that you'll deign
to be my penpal) and this guy who barely speaks English writing
from Iran...and using the weirdest metaphors. Do you even
get what Mongolia travelling and Rolex watches in a pot have
to do with me?
Lorina:
I gotta admit though, this is a lot better than the Iranian
ones that I used to get. At least he didn't ask for your "hot
nude pics" or to worship your pantyhose.... Or the ones
who brag about how rich they are. I never knew the Sultan
of Brunei scoured the personal ads!
Here's
his method...(But use the "Apu" accent.) "I
have this form letter, and I'll just take random words out
of a her ad and insert them. Oooohh... here, I'll use the
word "nutshell." Then I will toss in words that
will remind her of where she used to live: "gamble"
and "pot" and "card game." Oooohh... now
she is surely homesick! I'll mention "rolex" because
they are a very expensive watch and she will think I have
money. And I will say I visited Mongolia, and she will think
that I am not a stupid Mongoloid, only one who visited."
Jen:
It's true, at least he wasn't so overtly sexual, but he's
totally trying to play that Vegas angle. Oh, he knows where
I come from, Lor. How can I possibly resist him? ::sighs::
LOL,
hopefully we'll get some better responses soon. :)
