"True" Report
Well bloody hell that's a bit forward, isn't it? When I clicked on Claude to go into the True dating site, it asked me right away to set up my screen name. No bothering around with what's on offer etc. It's just, get me that man with those eyebrows! Those cheekbones! But there is this big flashing light: "!Warning! Married people need not apply. If you are married and posing as single, be aware that you could be guilty of fraud and subject to civil and criminal penalties under federal and state law. For each offense, Title 18, Section 1343 of the U.S. Code authorizes fines of up to $250,000 and jail sentences of up to five years. TRUE reserves the right to report violators to law enforcement authorities and seek prosecution or civil redress to the fullest extent of the law. If you are married, please close your browser." Oooh, I'm scared. I really feel chided now. If I'm some sleaze, I don't care about being chided, do I? If this law is on the books, I'm at no greater risk of being prosecuted on it on this site than on any other. And now I've got a whole field of trusting honeys in this site thinking they're safe. Let me at 'em! Of course now I, Kathy, am going to jail for reprinting their text without permission. Well it's not for profit, it's only one time, and I think this constitutes "fair use," fingers crossed.
And do I really have to close my browser? I have to just leave the internet now? I think I will just leave the site. Oh wait I'm not married. Ok well I'm looking at the "Code of Ethics" now and I can't even report on it, you should just go and see for yourself. It even includes a provision that your photo must have been taken within the last three years. The other major thing is that they automatically check each member against RapSheets.com. I have problems with this. Like are they saying that felons don't deserve to be loved? That's bullshit. And again, can't they just give a fake name if they are actually devious and evil?
Ok so as a test I am signing up as an 18 year old guy. I am having so much fun, it is very therapeutic to make up a profile and be the wankiest wanker in the world. With ridiculous expectations like all the other dickwads out there. Oh I am enjoying this. I am doing the personality profile and it asks to you rate yourself on continuums. And each continuum is shaped like a maxi-pad, I swear to god. Place yourself somewhere along this maxi pad. It is very disturbing. I am filling it out as if I were one of those guys who makes me sick and it feels fantastic. I took the personality test and came out as a total dick and now I am not compatible with anyone but there are some hot prostitutes on there. I guess being 18 will be a problem. You can check me out as "myxyplyxk" and even log in with the password "bears." Have fun!
