Do I have any hope of salvaging this one?

She went to a Goo Goo Dolls concert. that is a hook for further conversations.

Say something about "hey i remember them, they did Iris/Slide" (delete as applicable).

Or, if you want to bluff GGD know:

Ask about her views on the new album "Let Love In" and what she thinks about the Supertramp cover they did on that record ('Give A Little Bit').

Finish off asking if she's heard the cover of Iris this Irish dude called Ronan Keating has done this year, and how lazy a cover it is. GGD are better at covers.



That's pretty much all (and more than) you need to get her talking about them, and you're back in there.

RE: the blonde/brunette, just say 'sorry, your picture makes you look like you have light hair.' No point in trying to say you prefer brunettes, that comes off as sycophantic.

[Vehn]

she's big into the ggd, I mean BIG. Her profile constantly references them, her freaking screenname has it in it. I know nothing about them [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] I think I'm just gonna be like "yeah thats a huge dealbreaker for me, too bad you seem like a cool chick" but more sarcastic.

[Peter Harris]

you want cliffs on GGD, PM me.

You ought to pick up (cough) a couple of their records if you want to work her up. Sounds like a dealbreaker for sure.

Ask how many Z's are in Johnny's surname. (2)

Alright guys. I'm in way over my head on this one and need some serious OOT help. I think I'm pretty much dead in the water here, but let's see if you guys can help. She's a few yrs older than me, btw, and her profile mentioned guys born in the 70's as part of who she wants to meet. (I added subject lines since they're relevant.)

Oh, and I know my opening was kinda weak, but I really couldn't think of anything and wanted to message her - figured it might work.



Subject: 23 year olds make me have to write lines in my "about me"

I figure I'll start opening it up in my 30's. My idea is similar to how it's done in LA...but BETTA! Trying to build my clientele. Or at least thinking about trying.

I did enjoy your fabulous, 'how many towns can he live in' story there...thanks for that, Champ.

got any others?


xxx (challenging your next subject line to have nothing to do with your message).

Subject: I'm 23, but I act a lot older.

Not that you didn't see that subject line coming...

So you're planning on opening a comedy school? I assume that's not what you teach little kids currently. I figure they should probably learn the fine art of the whoopie cushion before exploring the more Colbert-style sarcastic deadpan humor. How'd you decide you wanted to open a school?

And to answer your question: grew up in Brooklyn, HS in Jersey, moved to Austin after grad school.

Dear Andrew-
I am ever so sorry to hear a cat got your tongue recently. I assume it was not my dear Rudy because you'd no longer think him cute.

I don't know what your opening line could be. How about "I'm 23 but I act a lot older"???? How's that workin for ya?

Well, I've been struggling with coming up with anything other than telling you you're kitten is cute (which incidentally, he is), but I'm sure you've heard it, and it really doesn't inspire much interest on your part.

So if you could help me out and maybe provide an opening line you'd like, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

What's my play here? Am I doomed? My profile for the references.

I don't think that you are dead in the water here at all. While you think that your first post was weak, it went over very well with her. If I were you, find some amusing story, and/or some witty retort. If she wasn't interested, she wouldn't be asking for more. Don't go too far, keep it witty, and you should do just fine here. And, stop worrying about the age thing, as she has already completely played it off.
