Long story short, I guess an online profile is like fishing; you have wade through a ton of carp just to get one darn bluegill.
Oh yeah, I read the original article. To me, there's a difference for someone just interested in sex and not paying attention to personality or anything else to carefully reading someone's profile just to find the one thing to make fun of that will definitely hurt the person's feelings. But that's just me.

Oh yeah, I just noticed on the linked article that the comedian who wrote the fake profile also met someone she's dating on the same site. So I have this feeling that it really is just me.
