okcupid brings the lulz

You may ask - "hey J., what the hell is this particular blog about?" And I would have to answer, "oh dude, not much, just an email from okcupid telling me how hot they think I am. No, seriously, I'm totally smokin' - this email is proof!" And if that doesn't work I'll say "It's to make you laugh hysterically at the absurdity that is my life. ENJOY!" I think this is the website's way of making up for the craptastic luck I've had with their dating selection. Well, brava okcupid, you have redeemed yourself.. for now.

I am not even kidding, I received an email from okcupid telling me that I'm hot, and it was hilarious so I decided to share it with all of you. If you don't believe that I copied and pasted this email, just let me know and I'd be happy to forward you the original as proof. I may be many things - crazy, overdramatic, slightly high-strung, but I am no liar!
