A few of you... and I'm not going to name names, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tkitch, because I've heard that's wrong... have suggested that I try OKCupid.com. Well, okay.
About 110 questions into the process, I decided to try the "find me some matches" button. For some reason, I got nothing but straight boys. Why? Dunno. I looked at my profile, tweaked it twice and finally got females on the third try. Note that at no point did I try changing my gender prefs.
Guess who my top match was? Of course,adaptively. If you don't know her, she's a rawkgod person but we are not matches this way. We're good at causing problems for other people and I dig her immensely but the same way I dig thunderstorms. Meanwhile, she was running an experiment when she set up the account so now I'm part of her proof of her hypothesis of the fuqupedness of OKCupid... I think. Anyway, I think it means I owe you drinks, dude.
Damn it! Metro boston is supposed to have 3 or 4 million people, right? How does a set of algorithms decide social incest is the best solution? Gah. New people, machines! I need new victims to slake my idiotic thirst.

P.S.: I knew it from her photo. Didn't have to read a word.
