^Yeah, but you also dig guns...I'm afraid we'd be highly incompatible IRL.

I don't think so! I'm between 29-34 with decent skin and great hygiene, an absurdly skeptical worldview, excellent fashion sense, cute little hands, I play 5 musical instruments (with mediocrity, but I can play them), I've got a kind of neat job, a strong feminist attitude, a good sense of humor, I'm not the least bit clingy, and I don't have a sexy British accent but I've got a slight lisp I've been told is somewhat charming, and I'm a cat person.

I'm almost thirty, I'm not fucking settling anymore because of low self-esteem! I'm learning to be happy with myself and I deserve some one fucking awesome. So there!

Sooo... you want yourself, only bigger and with a nice sounding voice.

^Doesn't everyone?

No, just compatible. I wouldn't want another artist. I dated an artists. Two crazy artists together is not good.

Or a nice warm man...

Aged 29-34, with skin somewhere between the color of straight espresso and alabaster -- I don't really care, so long as it's smooth, with excellent hygiene, a healthy to absurdly skeptical worldview, good fashion sense, large and manly yet elegant hands (I'm a fan of long fingers, he is welcome to be a pianist), a high-paying job in the sciences or engineering, a lean and athletic build (and a fondness for athletic but curvy women), a strong feminist attitude, good sense of humor, not too clingy, preferably with a sexy accent (I'm thinking Scottish or English, though I've begun to develop more of an appreciation for the Aussies' and Kiwi's accents than I used to have), and a cat person.

Unfortunately, I have small, dainty hands.

But I can play the piano.

Are we putting our wishlists in this thread now?

[CorporalClegg]

Do you have one?

[thestrangequark]

Why not. I feel crappy, and I feel like wishing.

[RoJoHen]

I want a girl with a short skirt and a long jacket.

[thestrangequark]

^With fingernails that shine like justice?

We'll start to talk when she borrows my pen.

[teacake]

I like small hands.

Also, cupcakes.

Hmm. Someone who is good and kind and strong. As in character, not physical strength so much.

Indeed, why not!

Sounds reasonable enough.

I'm not too picky. As long as she loves and accepts me for who I am and laughs at my jokes, we'll get along swimmingly.

I think lists go out the window when you find someone that you love, anyway. I actually kind of maybe have someone in mind and I think that is what I built my list around!

[thestrangequark]

Realistically I want someone who is kind and compatible, who shares my overal worldview and who shares mutual attraction. Not a tough guy or a bad boy, but a sweetheart with the same kind of cynical mean streak that I possess.

I also want enough money to pay off my student loans and my mom's house, the opportunity to go to grad school for a phd in neuroscience, a nice apartment that I get to decorate myself, to travel more, and eventually two sons, one biological and one adopted, named Ludo and Milo, the successful publishing of my novel and children's books, and a cure for type 1 diabetes, an end to poverty, a peaceful secular world, and the launch of an internationally collaborative space exploration program.

I hope this person knows how lucky s/he is.

This post is epic in so many ways.
