Liz sends in some “Missed Connections” posts, with this explanation:<\/p>\n
“Okay, so there is this guy who ALWAYS posts Missed Connections on our local CL.\u00a0 He always writes the same things, so we always know it\u2019s him.\u00a0 And now we also know that when a 37-year-old pops up on there, it\u2019s most likely him.\u00a0 Some of our favorite lines of his are: \u201cYou was pretty and sexy,\u201d \u201cI want to hook up with you,\u201d \u201cwe made eye contact,\u2019 and, our favorite, \u201chope the girl see this.\u201d<\/p>\n
We (me and my co-workers) have been following this guy\u2019s posts for about 3 months now.\u00a0 Every time one pops up, he\u2019s at a new location, and it\u2019s always some sort of eatery. We just don\u2019t understand how one guy can have soooo many missed connections in his lifetime, and it\u2019s always when he\u2019s at lunch or dinner! These are just three that he\u2019s posted in the past month.”<\/p>\n

\nwas eating at the grill on June 4 around 7:30pm.the waitress was young and fine.she had long dark hair with black jeans on and white shirt.if you are the girl tell me what i was wearing or what i order to eat.we chat a little.really would love to hook up with the girl.hope the girl see this.the girl shirt was low cut and showing some clevage\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\nWhy do I get the feeling that by “we chat a little” the guy means, “You asked me what I wanted to eat, brought me my food, asked if you could refill my Coke, and then brought me my check”? And that he thinks that means that they’re soulmates? Well, they were soulmates until a few weeks later, at least, when …<\/p>\n

\ngirl walk in McD on the east side of Athens on June 22 at lunch time.the girl had on white tight jeans and green shirt.she walk right beside me.not sure her name.she was very pretty and sexy.she really look good in the tight jeans.would love to hook up with her.if the girl see this tell me what you order so i will know it was you or tell me where was i when you walk by me.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\nI’m kind of afraid of that last bit, because if the answer isn’t “You were sitting in a booth” then it must be something like, “You were squeezing your 350-pound belly through the opening at the top of the slide” or “holding your mouth open under the ketchup dispenser”.<\/p>\n

\ni was at Sonic on Lexington Road on June 23 at lunch time.we made eye contact a few times.the girl had on black shorts and pink shirt.i watch her put on roller skates.the girl was fine and would love to get to know her more and hook up with her.the girl worked there.if you are the girl tell me your name or what was i driving.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSilly me. I always thought that “Missed Connections” posts involved both parties actually being aware of the existence of the other, not just one creepy guy staring at women in fast food restaurants and using it to make a compendium of his masturbatory fantasies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
