New Series: Worst Tattoos AmeriCanadian Sees in the Gym Locker Room

I joined the YMCA last night.  I'm over Gold's (aka the Gay Gym).  Are you REALLY hitting on each other at 6:30 a.m.?  Good on you I guess, I admire your stamina, but it's just not my cup of tea.

I noticed some sad looking tattoos in the locker room.  I thought it would be fun to start ongoing series sharing the ones that I see in there that make me thankful that I never got one. 

Today's winner:

A Yin and Yang symbol on a white chick on her lower back.

Pantyhose Shirt Causes AmeriCanadian to Pull the Plug on Online Dating

The past six months have been interesting for me dating-wise.  I've re-connected with an old flame, quickly realizing that there was a damn good reason why that didn't work out in the first place.  I've met new dudes through Match.com who have taken me to really unfun places (location-wise and situation-wise).  I'm blaming it all on online dating. 

I know that this is a big shift for me.  I've been involved in online dating off and on for a while, and have managed to meet some fun people by way of participating.  I mean without online dating, I never would have met that guy who unsolicitedly (is that a word?) texted me the picture of his junk before we even met.  That made for some fun blogging!  Deep down, all the while, online dating has been like a social experiment for me. 

I've decided that I'm going to shift my focus to meeting people first and dating them second.  It's a scary proposition in San Francisco, a city that is notoriously hard to meet people in.  But I'm up for the challenge.

I've been thinking about this for a while, but the catalyst was receiving a wink from someone wearing a shirt made out of pantyhose material.  I'm sure he's a very nice fellow, but somehow his wink captures everything that I've grown to hate about online dating in one pantyhose shirt.
