I wish I did.  I'll admit it- I'm one of those people who is easily annoyed and can't just let it go.  Maybe someday I'll be good and easy-going.

I totally do that when I've had a bad day in retail hell.  It's almost as if I deal with too much stupidity at work and the second I encounter it and CAN say something else... oh it can be bad.  You should see me at the supermarket after a bad day at work...

Unfortunately, it's typical internet 'etiquette'. Don't take it personally! :)

Tag enough doe with "Hey, how ya doing?" and you're bound to get a little tail.

One night stands are a numbers game. If I messaged 100,000 people here and offered them a thrilling night of sex, how many would say yes? 1? 10? 100?

My bet is closer to 1 for every 250 locals are willing to attend a meeting where sexual tension is inevitable. That's 400 per 100,000. I always assume form letters are an attempt at the numbers game, regardless of if it's sex or money they're after.

Status: offline 		Yes it's annoying as hell.

However you're female and 24. I can't imagine that you wouldn't get a response even if all you sent out was "Hi".

Guys don't get responses. If a guy sends out 20 letters a week and gets three responses over a year, he's doing well. So if it takes half an hour per perfect friendly, tailored to the person, letter then he's wasting 10 hours a week, 520 hours a year for three emails tops. And he probably won't be compatible with those three.

Having these odds explain why a guy will just write a friendly email that talks about him, so he can only spend 10 minutes a week sending mail instead.
