3,000 lines of net.singles and this is the only good article I
find:

>Mr. XXX:

>You are a nice guy but you have some disgusting habits.  Maybe you
>don't realize it, so I am telling you about them.  If you care about
>other people at all, and care what they think of you, and have

>WHY DON'T YOU:

>1)   Keep your pants from slipping.  Nobody likes to look at your big

>for others, wear a belt (or better yet, suspenders), and maybe
>some ladies won't be quite as disgusted by your appearance.

>2)   Wash.  Your hair is often disgustingly greasy, and you always smell

>3)   Tuck in your shirt, straighten your collar.  Brush your teeth.

I define a good article as entertaining or informative.  I can't stand
the petty arguments that go on in net.singles.  If you're just going
to argue like like adolesent children then do it by mail.

I also can't stand the "gosh I'm so worthless" articles.  Like:

"Oh I'm so pathetic.  I want to meet girls 'cause I'm soooo lonely.
I fantasize about fucking their brains out but I'm so religious that
I just know god would make my penis fall off if I did.  Oh POOOOOOOR,
POOOOOOOOR, PITIFUL ME!  What can I do?"

Another waste:

"I'm going to be in Bare Ass Beach the weekend of October 20, anyone
care to cater to my every whim?"

Who cares!  If you want a tour of the place have your travel agent
reccommend a tour guide.  I don't think eveyone on the net needs to know
where you'll be on Oct. 20.

Signiture lines:

AT THE SOUND OF THE TONE...From the nauseating cave of the Plaid Warlock...
[a peace sign]...[a dog house]

Grow up folks.  The least you can do is fake being an adult.

In conclusion, to sum up my feelings on net.singles:

	 ZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZ
