This
is a biggie - the Grand-Daddy of the Repeat Offenders!!!!
If you're a woman with a personal ad, watch out for this one.
This "exact" copy was in response to Jen's
Ad, but everyone seems to have gotten this...
Jen:
I began reading this with the usual blase attitude expecting
the "I like sunsets and walks on the beach"...I
mean, anyone who uses a subject line about the ancient Chinese
poet Basho must be all about that, right?
I
was very surprised--it was a really genuinely funny letter,
but sadly, he never got to the point of who he really was!
I feel like he got my attention, kept me reading, but then
never delivered.
Lorina:
Oh... Jen! This guys is WORSE than a repeat offender -- he's
a plagarist!
This
was originally written as some guy's essay for a college entrance
exam, and a bunch of pathetic guys have stolen it to use it
as their personal ad or ad response.
I
got it once -- I wrote back to the guy (didn't know it was
lifted from elsewhere) and said, "This is great! Please
tell me you wrote this after reading my ad. Even if you have
to lie to me... I hope this isn't a copy & paste respose
you send to everyone!"
I
never heard from him.
Cindy
got it already. One of the other gals who posts on the discussion
board got it, and this girl who sometimes posts on the boards,
Jackie - got it TWICE from two different guys!
Here's
the ORIGINAL essay:
