I fucking HATE Eharmony commercials

[HEyHEY]

They are god damned vile and irritating as all hell. A bunch of yuppies, model couples, terrible music, hokey loves stories.... egad. Where's a psycho path with a hook for a hand when you need one?

[JVS]

1. You're just mad you failed their personality test, aren't you?

They're programed to reject people who list drinking and screwing as their hobbies.

[HEyHEY]

3. Failing their personality test would be a compliment, not like failing the freemason's

cause that would suck.

[JVS]

5. Freemasons are the tool of the Devil.

So is Eharmony, but I need to set the record straight.

[latebloomer]

15. Yeah, or like my huz, who on his yahoo profile

listed "nosepicking" as his hobby.

[Danger Mouse]

2. It's all bullshit, anyway, none of those fake couples will last.

[fizzgig]

4. am i the only one who's noticed there are never any interracial couples in those commercials?

makes me crazy for some reason

[HEyHEY]

6. Actually I have noticed that too

[spinbaby]

7. It's more than that

If you pay attention, not only are there no inter-racial couples, but they seem to have matched couples based on complexion. Pasty white redhead with pasty white redhead. Mediterranean olive complexion with Mediterranean olive complexion. East Asian with East Asian. South Asian with South Asian. Light-skinned black with light-skinned black. The couples look alike.

[LeftyMom]

10. They always look enough alike to be fraternal twins. nt

[meow2u3]

20. The couples must be brother and sister hillbillies

STP to eHarmony: isn't incest illegal in all 50 states?

[Kat45]

22. I used to be on the site and they did match me with some black men.

(I'm a white woman.)

[dawgmom]

8. I like the Lowered Expectations commercials on MadTV

Some of them are offensive, but some of them are really funny.

11. I always loved the Vancome lady

She was an insufferable bitch, but at least she was easy.

[LoveMyCali]

9. I hate them too but not as much

as the Match.com commercials. Gee, I wonder why the loser with the felt hat had to try internet dating, you'd think he'd be quite the catch.

[KG]

12. why would anybody use a pay singles site anyway?

[HEyHEY]

21. Cause it's like a menu, other than that.... kills time!

I went on Lavalife after a bad break up cause my roomie forced me too try it. It actually was fun, I met some nice people ( Some I'm still friends with though nothing happened). And kinda got back into the swing of things.... reminded me there's so many people out there.

[Blue_Tires]

24. never heard of lavalife

after seeing the site, it may be worth looking into...

[Aristus]

13. Their ad music sounds like a slowed-down Muzak version of "Don't Stop Believing."

:wtf::shrug:

[Sugar Smack]

14. Last I saw, the couples all looked like brother-sister.

:scared: Which wasn't a ringing endorsement.

[latebloomer]

16. I knew someone who signed up for it.

and it was sheer bullshit. They claim to carefully match you up with someone, then you have to go through a whole series of online interactions before they allow you to actually meet the person. Then it turns out you have nothing in common and live 50 miles away.

Happened to him 3 times before he quit.

And yes, the commercials are completely obnoxious.

[Skittles]

17. they need to revisit these folk in seven years

I bet they are all divorced and fucking hate each other

[LaydeeBug]

18. This will be. an everlasting love.

They made me hate that song.

[PassingFair]

19. Especially that irritating TanyaLee...

Everyone in my family is irritated by her.

We don't know why, we just ARE.

[MrScorpio]

26. Like most media creations, she has her own Myspace page

http://www.myspace.com/flytlee

[PassingFair]

30. Ugh! Why did I....

go there?

Why does it not surprise me that they
"got engaged" after 9 days?

:puke:

Can they get their divorce through E-DisHarmony?

[regnaD kciN]

23. You DO know it's owned by Pat Robertson, don't you?

No joke.

[pinniped]

25. The founder seems like a creepy character.

.

[PVnRT]

27. The founder is a fundy and hates gays

So, yeah, eHarmony is a bunch of bullshit. They stack the odds by rejecting anyone who isn't mindless and happy according to their personality quiz.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

28. You must not

want to marry a Stepford Wife. WTF is wrong with you? Yep, they pretty much creep me right out too.. Mr. Fundy-the-Founder is a closet something or other - anyone who hates gays and grins like that has some hidden issues...

I have my kids programed to hat eHarmony commercials too. - :)

[teverton1]

29. the test said i have no personality...

so i guess i'll keep reverting to "the stranger" for love

[Initech]

31. Their founder always sounds like he's dosed up to the eyeballs on antidepressants.

"Hi, I'm Dr. so and so. We match you based on 29 dimensions of compatibility."
