The first thought that entered my mind when I ventured into the “Missed Connection” section of New York City Craigslist.org, was “WTF did I get myself into?!?” It’s one thing to check out the Missed Connection section in San Diego after Comic Con as I did for a previous post, it is entirely different when the opening screen to the NY section has so many abbreviations for hook-ups that I’m not even sure if we are talking about people anymore…
Allegedly, this screen exists on all Missed Connection pages, but I suppose I never thought the bottom row of connection types would come into play until I started reading ones for NYC. Time for my big girl panties as I delve into the fun, hope-there’s-some-storm-trooper-lovin, past time of Comic Con Missed connections.
Supergirl Cosplay
VERDICT – Call Him, Maybe?
Dear Kara, although he didn’t say anything like, “You had a smile that could save Metropolis,” he did say “you were simply stunning” ::Cues collective “aww”:: I’m not getting a serial killer vibe from this post, so at least you may get a nice dinner before he asks if you have thighs of steel.
Riddle me this?
VERDICT – Only if you get to keep the costume on
This is when having a gay best friend would come in handy. I would ask questions like, “Is it safe to assume if you wore a tight spandex Riddler costume cosplay to comic con that your sexuality is no riddle?” (See what I did there?) I would also ask if wearing a costume as such as a gay man is asking for people to comment on your tight bubble butt. I assume girls in cosplay that go for the boob window (it’s a thing ya’ll, I just learned about it over text), don’t mind the ogling of their assets, the same must go in the other direction? Man, so many questions for my imaginary gay bff. Regardless, if you wore the costume because the question marks implied wanting to be “asked out,” go for it, but make him dress up as batman. Then take pictures. Then keep the costumes on. Hey-ooo.
MY EYES, OH MY EYES
I had a feeling that surfing the New York City missed connections could be a bad idea. I should also know better than to click on something that says “uncircumcised.” I thought there would be a funny romp in a Comic Con bathroom stall story, not a picture of a member which is stretched to emphasize the UN part . PASS the brain bleach please.
When I am brave enough to troll the Missed Connection section again, we may see a part two portion of this post.
Do you have a gay best friend? Is there subtext to the Riddler costume? Do you have any brain bleach?
