Cute girl with iPod - Orange line this morning - m4w -29

You: Cute girl, brown hair, listening to your Ipod.

Me: Cute guy, brown hair, listening to my Ipod.

Why didn't we talk to each other? We were staring longingly into each other's eyes. Oh that's right, we're lame and we listen to our Ipods whenever we are outside of our homes so now no one talks to each other in random places anymore. I guess that leaves only Whole Foods and Chipotle for Missed Connections. Awesome.

This is in or around Arlington

Ohmigod! Like, allow me to like introduce you to our like newest Mr. Connection! Totally a dude (and a fan). K, so for like an explanation or whatever I saw this posting and I was like, "That is sooo totally me! Like totally!" So I flipped my hair a bit and responded, "Like you forgot about Starbucks! Ohmigod Starbucks is sooo rad. Check out my blog! Buy me a pony?" K so like Mr. Connection replied to me (cuz I'm totally cute) and said that the posting was like responding to our totally bogus (like as in totally untrue) iPod posting! He was being like ironical or something! Which totally prompted me to like blog it! Awesome! LOL! Laterz!

Being that obnoxious is exhausting. I hope that despite the superfluous valley girl lexicon you understand the posting. Sadly, Mr. Connection did get a real response to this (besides mine)

-----------

Hey there..... youre posting was pretty vague but I feel like you described an encounter I had last Friday! Any more details like where you got off, what you were wearing, or what the girl was wearing????????

-----------

Mr. Connection is wondering if he should admit to this poor desperate poster that he was mocking MCs in general.

iPod shuffle says "Sweet Dreams are Made of These..." w4m, 23

Red Line to Glenmont
Around 6pm Tuesday night

You were the guy in the black jacket, brown hair, snoozing to some tunes on your iPod (white, 5th generation?). Hope you were having sweet dreams about the cute blonde listening to her iPod (blue, mini) and playing Su Doku two rows back. You woke up around Farragut North.

Please respond. Maybe we can swap songs, and make your dreams come true.

This is in or around Farragut North

I am glad to introduce our very first guest Ms. Connection. Let's all give her a round of applause and hope that she finds the man of her very own sweet dreams. (I myself dreamt that tiger-cheetah-monkeys were trying to eat my housmates and that Seth Green didn't care.)

Hope you recognize me from my pics..I am an entertainment and business lawyer originally from NY, but live in Arlington, work in DC..I speak a few languages and I have lots of energy, love the theater, Indy movies, jazz clubs.I like and prefer the energy of someone for the fun and active stuff (skiing, biking, dancing, gym, etc.) Attached are two recent pics to see if it was me.. I look forward to the adventure of a new year.

Bright Young Thing(s) w4m, 24

Dear Bright Young Thing,

You may remember me as the blonde chick sitting at the table next to you on Tuesday. The one with the friend. The friend with the birthday. You didn't help me subsidize her drinking habit and for that I'll forever be in debt.

Anyway, I found a BYT poster in my pocket the next morning. (You probably didn't give it to me or anything...I'm like a drunken magpie) There were some lovely pen and ink drawings on the opposite side. Besides the inspired and breathtaking rainbow and the ferocious triceratops, I'm curious about the stick figure. Is that a self portrait? I don't normally go for thin men but the third leg was impressive. (Unless it's actually pedal rather than penile. In which case, I'm afraid it would just get in the way. Sorry.)

Buy my friend a birthday drink sometime?

This is and around Nanny O'Brian's

12.8 4:45PM I think I remember you, your name -----? tell your friend happy birthday.

Dilemma: Yet another contol, this was a real Missed Connection. Kinda. There were several Bright Young Things (an improv group. Check them out!) in the bar but I didn't really talk to any of them. The responder does not seem all that inclined to buy me any ponies, or even go out on a date. Shall I contact him (possibly to meet), posting the horrible details of our encounter? Shall I let him on the Ms. Connection secret? I must mull this over.

-----------

It hath been mulled. I met said Mr. Connection after allowing him to view the blog. I don't think he actually read it. Also, he wasn't the person I posted for. However, I had fun and was not murdered and dumped in a field somewhere.

Cutie, Tuesday Panera lunch rush. m4w, 27

I saw you eating a sandwich with your coworker. Turkey? Looked good...not as good as you. You: black pants, red turtleneck shirt. I hope you didn't get caught in the rain! Meet me for lunch?

This is in and around Silver Spring.


----------

Every good experiment should have a control. Today I posted a Missed Connection with myself. That's right. I am most definitely the cutie with the turkey sandwich. You should have seen how I worked the pickle.
