			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So Gena is just tra-la-la-ing on Facebook, like we all do. She gets a friend request from a guy and his name sounds familiar so she accepts the request, like we all do.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Facebook: reconnecting you with people from your past that you weren&#8217;t really close with in the first place.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And then&#8230; this happens.</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Donnie hey do u remember me</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me WHS, right?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie nope i went to daleville i used to hang out with jason and casey moore they livdin clayhatchee</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me Oh yeah.. How are you?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie good..im good.. how r u</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me Not bad.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie lol..well u look great..im very beautiful. dang keys sticking..i meant very beautiful</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me thanks</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie the picture of u standing in front of the bridge ..u look breath taking..</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>This is the point where Gena went and checked out his profile&#8230; And saw that he&#8217;s MARRIED.</p>
<p>Also, the only picture he&#8217;s got on his PUBLIC FACEBOOK PAGE (Who DOES that anymore?!) is of him and his soon-to-be-broken family.</p>
<p><a href="http://datewrecks.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/donnie.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5309" title="donnie" src="http://datewrecks.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/donnie.jpg" alt="donnie There Arent Enough Sad Trombones" width="423" height="388" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Me thanks. How&#8217;s your wife and kids?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie ha i knew u wer gonna say that we r seperated our divorce will be final the 22nd of this month and my girls r great..yeah we both decided to leave it like that until it is final..nosy friends and family and all ya know</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me well, it happens. lol</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie so now maybe u wont think imma big ol jerk..i was fixing to tell u before u noticed lol..</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me well, i&#8217;m not all about being in someone else&#8217;s business, but I&#8217;m not on about some married guy flirting with me either.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie i totally undertand..i wouldnt do that ..im not that type of guy..and i can tell u r a strong lady cause u called me on it..lol..so now do u feel a lil bit better about us chatting</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me I rarely feel bad about chatting with anyone. It&#8217;s the content of the chat that I will censor if need be.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie oh yeah..not that type of guy either..not a perv..i think its kinda well sick when a guy talks down on a lady and i can already tell u r a lady not many of those left in the world..</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Alright, all together now. HEAVY SIGH. Do guys think that this makes our panties drop? Quick, Gena! Change the subject!</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Me What are you up to?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie was jut chatting with my sister and my daughter aubreigh..and u&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me Not much, just checking messages and email.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie i understand..so can i ask u a question..r u dating any one i would love to maybe have dinner sometime..just casual nothing other than just meeting and maybe hanging out..</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>I love how he asks you if he could ask you a question&#8230; And then in the same message, asks it.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Me I&#8217;m taking a break from dating for a while. I&#8217;ve had a long string of seriously bad dates, so I&#8217;m just chillin&#8217; with my friends right now. Thanks anyway.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie i understand..well u never know could be the date u have alwyas wanted lol.. but i understand also</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me Thanks.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie welcome</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>WHAT A TROOPER! Guys, let&#8217;s give it up for Gena for being such a nice person and not laughing and/or being mean to this joker! I would have just unfriended him and moved on. Gena decided to copy and paste the conversation and send it over to me&#8230; Same diff, right? Heh.</p>
<p>But then&#8230; he continues.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Donnie im sorry things havnt been going good in the dating world but dont give up u r a gorgeous woman u will meet th right one</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me Thanks. I am just taking a break right now. I&#8217;ve got lots of things going on right now, so it&#8217;s not like I&#8217;ve got tons of time.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Good job, Gena. Stay the course.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Donnie i understand..totally..well i would love to just hang out sometime and get to know u<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me Yeah, well you never know.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie u dont that is true..u nevr do..can i ask u a question when u r dressed up in the outfits that dress what r u doing<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me I go to renaissance festivals. Sometimes I&#8217;m on cast for them. Meaning I act like someone from the Elizabethan period.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie wow that issss cool i mean it that is neat as heck do they have them around here..<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me No. Nearest one is Pensacola and one in ATL.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie cool..that is neat..i bet its a lot of fun<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me It is.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie am i bugging u. im just curious thats all<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me I&#8217;ve got several windows open, so I&#8217;m multi-tasking.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie ohh well i dont want to bug u..but again i would love to just hang out or maybe if u would like i could give u my cell and we could talk would love to meet u and hang out..<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;re a nice guy, but I&#8217;m really not interested right now. Sorry.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie ok..no prob i understand<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Me Have a good night.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Donnie u to good nite</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Ok, so it&#8217;s not ONLINE dating but it certainly is online trolling via facebook for women to &#8220;hang out&#8221; with while you rebound from your divorce.</p>
<p>Gena, I tip my hat to you. You&#8217;re a better woman than me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This post has nothing to do with nothing but everything to do with me.</p>
<p>I want to go to NYC for my birthday this year. I&#8217;ve been trying to go for years now and this year, I want to make it happen. I&#8217;ll be 29. What better way to usher in my last year of my twenties than to throw down in NYC?</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve got places to stay&#8230; And I can save up for the boozin&#8217; and what not.</p>
<p>I know I&#8217;ve got a pretty large readership in NYC and the surrounding states and I&#8217;m hoping you guys will do what you always do and come through for me!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m looking at flights right now and it looks like it&#8217;s not going to be more then $250 round trip, probably less as I keep an eye on things&#8230; Think we can make this happen?</p>
<p>We could meet up some place fun and have a costume birthday party! I&#8217;ve NEVER had one of those. You&#8217;d think with my birthday being on November 5th that at some point, it would have made sense to have one, but I never did.</p>
<p>Right now, Date Wrecks averages about 1,500 unique people visiting daily. If you guys all throw in two dimes a piece, it would be more than enough to cover the trip. Two dimes? Do you have two dimes to show me how much you love and appreciate the never ending levels of snark that I bring to your god damned computers every day!?</p>
<p>If you can and you want to, click here and scroll right below my About Me portion and there&#8217;s a little button to donate via Paypal. There&#8217;s also an easy donate button on the home page, just above the Youtube videos.</p>
<p>Also, in other news around the internet, I wrote a guest post for Met Another Frog and they threw it up this week. <a href="http://metanotherfrog.com/main-page/vanilla-girls-guide-anal-sex-pt-1/" target="_blank">Part 1</a> and <a href="http://metanotherfrog.com/main-page/vanilla-girls-guide-anal-sex-pt-1/" target="_blank">Part 2</a> of The Vanilla Girl&#8217;s Guide To Sex. It&#8217;s a cute piece, mostly funny but also really educational. If you&#8217;re on the fence about it, you should read it.</p>
<p>And I know somewhere (twitter? facebook? I can&#8217;t remember), I promised I&#8217;d have to full email transcripts up for the meathead who asked for me to remove his post up for you on Wednesday, but it&#8217;s not going to happen. He emailed me a LOT. It&#8217;s just gonna take me a couple of days to find some time to sort them all out and get them formatted for easier reading.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re interested in seeing snippets of the dramaz, you can check it out on the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Atlanta-GA/Date-Wrecks/36803138983?v=wall&amp;ref=ts&amp;ajaxpipe=1&amp;__a=17" target="_blank">facebook</a> page and some screenshots in the album titled <a href="http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=186308&amp;id=36803138983" target="_blank">Haters Gonna Haaaaaate</a>. There&#8217;s a whole lot of funny shit that goes on over there on the facebook page, you should check it out if you haven&#8217;t already. I promise you won&#8217;t want to hide my posts. Especially on Friday morning &#8212; that one is always super fun.</p>
<p>Um&#8230; Any other news? I don&#8217;t think so.</p>
<p>Email me your submissions and don&#8217;t forget to take screenshots or cut and paste everything!! I am getting worse about writing people back lately and that&#8217;s mostly because I&#8217;m checking shit while I&#8217;m on my phone and don&#8217;t feel like typing out long replies (I&#8217;m talking to you Lorrie!), but I promise, I read every one.</p>
<p>Love you guys. Seriously&#8230; This is the little blog that could. It&#8217;s been almost two years since I carved out this little snarktastic corner of the internet and honestly, you guys are all funnier than me. The things you do in the comments astounds me. <em>Sometimes I have to google shit to get your jokes! </em>Smart folks.</p>
<p><strong>Really smart folks send money to help me get to NYC. I&#8217;m just sayin&#8217;. Aren&#8217;t you smart?</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Working on the kinks to get it to load over there in the sidebar, but for now, you can visit <a href="http://datewreckslive.tumblr.com" target="_blank">http://datewreckslive.tumblr.com</a> and send in short submissions.</p>
<p>Now, if you want a full-write up, you should email it to me as per the usual outlets (<a href="http://datewrecks.com/submit/" target="_blank">Submission Page</a> or <a href="http://datewrecks.com/contact-me/" target="_blank">Contact Page</a>), but a quick picture, short email or IM exchange, or whatever you&#8217;ve got can be uploaded directly to this Tumblr page.</p>
<p>Shit, even if you&#8217;ve got a link to an article or a funny webcomic that you think is applicable or that you think the Date Wrecks audience might enjoy, send it on over!</p>
<p>Wait just a minute for me to approve the submission and presto-change-o, the power is in your hands!</p>
<p>Hopefully, I can work with the super smart person who created this great Tumblr Widget plugin that I can&#8217;t seem to make work, and when I do, these submissions will display proudly on the right hand side bar. They won&#8217;t refresh like a stream (sorry Arthur!), but every time you refresh the page, if there are new submissions, they&#8217;ll appear in this widget.</p>
<p>In the meantime, you can join the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Atlanta-GA/Date-Wrecks/36803138983?v=wall&amp;ref=ts&amp;__a=9" target="_blank">Facebook Fan Page</a> and all of these submissions will be imported here. Also on <a href="http://twitter.com/datewrecks" target="_blank">Twitter.</a></p>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/datewrecks" target="_blank"></a>Whew, mercy. Giving you guys lots of powah here lately. Make me proud!</p>
