A New York woman is being scrutinized and praised after people learned that she used a dating website to obtain $1,200 a month in free meals.
According to Business Insider, 23-year-old Jessica Sporty was deep in debt. Sporty had difficulties living on her $45,000 annual salary after spending nearly $1,500 a month in rent, paying her credit card bill, and buying food.
So she hatched up a plan and signed up with the popular online dating site Match.com so she could quickly go on five dates a week. Sporty even maintained a spreadsheet with detailed information on each of her dates, limiting each guy to a maximum of five.
Dates took Sporty to high-end New York restaurants, and one of her dates even bought her a $200 bottle of champagne.
“Before I barely had enough money to pay for food,” said Sporty. “After using Match.com I found I wasn’t going into debt anymore.”

As of today, Sporty is no longer on the dating website as she is currently in a relationship and most likely freeloading off her new beau.
“It was exhausting,” she said. “I needed my sleep and I was done playing the game.”

Or some sort of yummy bird treat.
Maybe the birds might have gotten into some bird LSD?
It’s a plausible theory. Historically, whole towns have been devastated by ergot in the wheat stream.
Much safer to stick with beer.
“Much safer to stick with beer.”
Absolutely! Filled with B vitamins and essential carbohydrates, beer is food the way nature intended.
“...glad when my pc is back up and running!” I wondered where you were. Missed ya!

I’m impressed that you can do this at all with your phone! I sure couldn’t.
I’m about to go take a nap with Jake. We don’t expect to have the baby today ;-).
Im impressed with myself, too! LOL! I knew my phone had internet capabilities, but its not something that comes easy. When i can afford it, i will get a fone that is easier to manipulate.
hopefully, it will be only a few months.
in the meantime, Happy New Year, to everyone!

None of them are "easy" for keyboarding. The best choice seems to be with the "voice-to-text" option.
Having heard your voice, I am assured that your phone will love you, and serve you well.
Happy New Year, 'Face!
You have a funny accent, but investment boards all over the country are interested in people with market savvy.
Nasty little critters, meerkats. That cuteness is all a pose.
Maybe so, but it’s a cute pose.
No insult intended to clowns.
Ok, yes, there was! Clowns are Evil.
