A few nights ago, while looking for the BBC international on On Demand, my roommate came across a new feature under Lifestyle entitled Dating on Demand. Of course, we all gathered around the tube to check this out.
Last night, I showed this new feature to Miss Possible, who didn’t believe that this could really exist ("This can’t be for real" she tells me), but it does and it is. Basically, it gives you the ability to peruse through 2-3 minute video profiles of "desperate" people looking for love. I use the term desperate loosely, as I myself have dabbled in online dating. But I’d never go so far as to post a video on comcast cable for all to critique and laugh at. Some of them are very entertaining. The guy who is an "excellent stone skimmer" or the girl named "damaged_glitter" who’s a scrabble master.
The "Favorites" feature is by far the best, because it goes through all of the "best" videos. I’m not sure who votes these people into the "favorites" category, but — they’re definitely the most _interesting_ shall we say.
So, definitely check it out if you have Comcast. It’s worth the watch.
