Thread "I Met My Lover/Best Friend/Spouse On Drunk Duck" in forum "Comic Talk and General Discussion *"

Posted at 2:08PM, Aug. 23, 2008

Hopefully this thread hasn't been created. I saw the thread about the alleged bot sending messages to DD members, so I thought I'd ask these questions…

Not that DD is akin to Match.com - Still, has anyone ever hooked up or wanted to hook up with someone here in the community?

Does anyone have a testimony about that?

Gained a girlfriend/boyfriend? New best friend? That reached beyond the Internet into a real time encounter that has lasted a while?

Amelius and Evil Emperor Nick are probably the most recognizable. They met on DD, dated and got married!

Nope. I never met anyone from DD in person, but I talk to more guys my age on DD than anywhere else on the internet or in life.

I get cripplingly shy around eligible men my age. I have sort of conned myself into actually conversing with a few of them on DrunkDuck because I initially thought they were either married or women. (Damn you guys and your feminine avatars!) But seriously, it's a good thing. It has given me more confidence in real life to know I can have conversations with guys.

Would I like to? I dunno. There are guys I can actually talk to on here, so maybe. They already know how self-conscious and neurotic I am. We could build on that. ;)

But I probably never will meet any of you. Geography is against it.

Yep, met my live-in girlfriend through Drunkduck. We've been together over a year now.

Oh, I should also mention that I met my college roommate through DrunkDuck, and because of that never had to live in the crappy dorms.

My best internet friend is from Drunk Duck.

Does that count?

Posted at 2:08PM, Aug. 24, 2008

Nope and I probably never will.

I meet all of my friends and lovers here. I have no other outlet of social interaction.

Posted at 3:08PM, Aug. 24, 2008

I think my wife would be against me dating anyone from the Duck, but I have made some decent friends here.

Posted at 3:08PM, Aug. 24, 2008

I met my sister.

Posted at 3:08PM, Aug. 24, 2008

I met my sister.

I know…It's crazy how we lived in the same house for years, totally unaware of each other, and then realized through DrunkDuck's advanced DNA testing system that we were related.

I'd imagine it would make the getting to know your process a lot easier.
ie:
person 1- "I like comics".
person 2- "0.o really?! Me too!"

Either that, or that would wind up being one of the geekiest relationships ever. "Wanna cross our LANs tonight babe? Get freaky and maybe switch OS's for a little bit?"

Didn't meet my love of my life on the Duck but I got this rash and burning sensation when I pee from here.

*dear god the burning never stops!*

Pfft. You just don't want to admit you like that idea.

Closet geek pervert.

Do you remember that intro thread we had for people to pimp themselves out to prospective mates…? Man that was embarrassing. -_-

By the way, I'm single and sexxxx-say! :)

Correction:
They met on DD, dated, fought crime and got married!

I'm gonna take a pass on that…

I just get my groceries here.

Posted at 7:08AM, Aug. 25, 2008

Meeting someone online isn't my ideal way to get hooked up… but if I do meet someone worthwhile, so be it. It's just really unlikely, that's all. =\

I think it's sweet that people can meet over the Internet (especially on DD) and get married. It means that they liked them for their personality before their looks.

worstcase and SeriousQuiche: lol, that's awesome. If my sister ever found me here, she'd probably stalk me and never admit it's her. ._.

The photo thread tends to get a certain sort of attention on occasion. :)

I want to date like half the girls on Drunk Duck. Does that count?

Considering there're several thousand, that'd pose… difficulties. :)
There are only 24 hours in a day and 7 days in a week :(

I wonder how many here haven't met a few cuties here?

It's not too hard to see that. I can't imagine any other reason girls would actually hang around DD.

I love comics! Need something to read during my down time @ the office.

I'm trying to meet the sweet guy who started this thread XD.
But I think he's too shy or too busy to meet a gal for Johnny Rocket's!

Yes, you maker of blnts! You could bring your iguana to protect you!
