Form Letter (Response to idiots sending me form letters on dating sites and social networks*)
Dear Stranger,
Read the damn profile. Pick something that might be a mutual interest. Start a conversation about it. It's really not hard. If I wanted generalised spam messages with no connection to my own personality I'd go look in my trash email.
No love,
Someone who's very bored of getting form letters from people who clearly don't give a shit about who I am other than 'female'.
*Yes, this happens often enough that it is worth having a form response that I can copy and paste. Now, finally, here it is.
