Fishing for Hipsters Part 3.

  Went fishing on Craigs List again. What I did was post a fake ad in the Woman 4 Man section. The responses you are about to read all came into my mailbox within 20-45 minutes of the posting.

Unbelievable.











THIS WAS MY POSTING :

"Not a hipster" guy wrote...

Hi, Gwendy, my name is Colin, I saw your posting and wanted to say
hello. I live in Williamsburg and am a graphic designer at a pretty
great place. I am not a hipster at all, though I am way into music,
art, films, riding my bike, going to mccarren park, etc.

I've got no tattoos, don't smoke, like striped shirts, am tall, thin
and have lots of freckles. I am also smart and friendly. I have a busy
schedule, and tend to be somewhat introverted as well so I find it
hard to meet people for dating, hence why I am responding to a
craigslist ad. I turned 32 in August, and am a Leo.

Here is a picture of me, I could tell you more if there is mutual interest.

Take care,

Colin

Bubbly effervescent artsy boy wrote...

Dear Gwendy:

Yeah I am 5'11" , thin, non-shaven, and hot.

I am 24yr old html designer / coder with a fun effervescent attitude.

Sport jackets with jeans, and I bring my mac laptop, sketchpad, and keen eye everywhere.

In my spare time I go to MOMA, MEt, whitney, and SOHO.
But I tend to escape from myself and jog from time to time.
I get easily bored and distracted but if you keep me focused and I 'm a loyal puppy.


Your too much tell me about yourself — seriously.

-regards
Wes
