The qualification for me messaging a girl on a dating website is as follows.

I have signals that will alert me to the fact I will not like a certain girl. These signals are found in the profiles. If they have any of these they will not get a message from me.

Saying you want a real man.
Listing hardly anything about yourself(You can't take 5 minutes to list your favorite movies?).
Talkin lik dis 4 real yo
Having overtly sexual pictures(Like showing a picture of your ass, be modest).
Being skinny(Not bad, but I'm not even going to try)
Acting like a thug.
Wanting to hook up.
Noting giving me a hook so I can message you back(Why should I care if you don't sound interested?).
Living too far from me.
Insulting me because I read Shakespeare in modern English.
Living in Canada.
Being dwarf in wheel chair.

More to come when I think of it.

I've noticed that having these characteristics will attract many more responses and inquiries:

- Make a lot of money

- Be tall

“Grow up. These are my Disney's movies, not yours.”

I'm not necessarily tall(5'11) or do I have a job, but I got one girl who is interested in the week that I've been doing it.]

Also: One rule added.

That's because you, my friend, are a badass. :)

My personal flags for weeding out dating site bimbos is two that don't seem related but are...

"I enjoy the simple pleasures in life", and then further down her profile, in the checklist for her potential match "Income: $150,000+".

Just how "simple" are these pleasures that you require your potential suitor to have a six figure income in order for you to experience them???

My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.

I never quite understood your hostility towards me. This post is largely a joke if you didn't get it.

Having a liberal arts degree.

So people people with disabilities/bothered to study for five years shouldn't bother or just shouldn't bother with you?

A liberal arts degree honestly shouldn't take anyone more than three and a half to four years.

I probably wouldn't date anyone who took five years to get one either.

Well, I don't drive and it would be hard for me to get to Canada without driving. You also have to have a special Michigan drivers license to go.

I live very close to Canada and Canadians appear in my OKCupid search results.

Is there a way to exclude those results from your searches?

Oh yeah, I had forgotten you can get an enhanced driver's license to use instead of a passport.

The degree course it self would probably be three years but usually one is required to be qualified to get on to such a course.

As someone who has dated and indeed had intimate pleasure with wheelchair users and people who are shorter than my short self I wouldn't see it as an automatic impediment to romance or naughtiness.

If this thread is just about people Sean would shag then I suggest the thread be rebranded to the Would Sean or Wouldn't Sean? Thread.

I guess he wouldn't shag a short girl in a wheelchair with a liberal arts degree, unless he is fibbing.

I'm actually dating a nice girl I met on OKCupid. She is a substitute teacher and a jeweler. She is also about a year older than me and we really like each other.

I'm going to be fair here about 5-year liberal arts degrees and say that the time spent getting one depends on the college. Where I attend the number of super seniors is staggeringly high simply due to the incredulous number of general ed courses required (mostly due to religion.)

Um, yeah, typically. I've never known a teacher whose degree wasn't a Liberal Arts degree. The term "Liberal Arts degree" covers bachelor's degrees in a very wide variety of subjects. It simply means that their education encompasses a wide variety of subjects, social sciences, history, humanities, philosophy, science, literature, language, etc., as opposed to a very specific degree where you study very few subjects unrelated to your specialty. The idea of the liberal arts degree was to provide graduates with a well rounded education. Degrees in education degrees are Liberal Arts degrees, however, all that was needed to substitute teach when I was in Michigan was to simply have a bachelor's degree.
