a moron's technique 

update on the not-quite lover boy who invited me to see krs-one tonight

so, when i got the message on thursday inviting me--even though he admitted it was "super, super forward"--to see krs-one and immortal technique for saturday night, i thought, "maybe..." the problem was that i don't have a paid subscription to match.com. being the case, i couldn't write back to him to say, "hell yeah!" well, i found out that i could sign up for a free 3-day trial. the caveat being, that i'd have to give up my credit card info and make sure to cancel before the three days were over. well, i do it. i sign up. i send him an email saying that i was interested in the show, but would like to know a little bit more about him before hand (you know, feel out if he had any psycho-killer tendencies) and "here, email me back at (insert real email address)." i wait... nothing. friday comes, friday goes. since these free trial things always screw me over, i decide to cancel the trial last night to avoid being charged.

what happens?

foolio writes me this morning saying that his account says i sent him an email, but he was unable to receive it. "could you send it, again? i'm sorry. i just thought you hadn't responded." so great! i can't write him back now! dammit! fuckhead wasn't keen enough to also realize that not everyone is a paid member. he could've given me another email address. whatever...

great. match sucks. you can at least reply to people who wink or write you on nerve.
