    On-Line Dating Ads on MSN Make Me Sick

    Stardate 3848.3

    Here is a typical journey checking hotmail....

    Open Messenger window:

    • LEMONTONIC ad on the bottom.
    • LAVALIFE ad on the tabs.

    Opening Hotmail by clicking the Mail Icon...

    • DATE.CA ad on the top banner. "Trust your feelings"...
    • LAVALIFE sexy singles ad on the left sidebar. "Where singles click"...
    • LEMONTONIC dating ad on the right sidebar. "The evolution of on-line dating..."

    Is our modern society so pathetic that people actually do this and rely on it? Do companies think I *want* to see this crap? As if anyone on Lavalife that "is waiting to meet me" is going to look anything remotely like the professional sex goddess or god they have in the advert... I mean really, they may as well have Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston on there, waiting to "meet me".

    Wow, I sign into my Yahoo mail, and the only ad I get is Ebay over and over... At least no-one that looks like a Greek Goddess wants to meet me. I mean really, all I want to do is check my mail.

    Then we can move off into more remote realms... Like MSN.ca More classy stuff... NOT.

    • Channels.... DATING & PERSONALS.
    • Partners & Offers... LOVE & RELATIONSHIPS
    • Online Dating ad for MATCH.COM... 5 Reasons why it works.

    Look at the top of this very page... 50/50 chance... YEP! There it is! LAVALIFE!
