Hey ladies, I think I might be a catch!
-Not currently in jail, probation, or have any warrants out for my arrest
-Shower regularly and shave once a week!
-Steady career
-Happy hour isn't part of my daily commute, the gym is!
-I don't smell like a bowl of weed
-My chest is bigger then my ass
-If you read this far you should know that I have a sense of humor

This was inspired by a good laugh I got from reading another woman's self screening list for men.

Honestly, my first reaction was "........"

I can see how you would like to convey a sense of humor, and your lines seem original, not cut and paste of some lame joke or quotes you can find online. But as for the content, most of it should go without saying. It does not really add anything to the actual profile other than a dash of sarcasm. Not sure if that's good or bad.

But I'm not the best person to guide you, as my profiles probably lacked some zest as well.

I would definitely not include this in your profile; it's too tongue-in-cheek and comes off as trying too hard.

It reads to women:

I'm in the minority. I think it's kind of cute.

I'm a guy, but I wouldn't write this.

I agree with LIS, seems like you're putting too much effort into a profile.

However, if you like it... put it because at then end of the day you'll attract who you want to attract

Remove the first line "the jail and probation thing"

It sounds like your standard is too low. (as if staying out of jail is something to brag about)

Rest of them are okay if this is your sense of humor.

Like one poster said it, you are going to attract those you want to attract, there is no one size fits all way to create a kick ass profile. Try it and see what happens.

I would add it because GUYS standards are too low and will often under-report difficulties. That you are putting it out there will either make you look like a liar (he can't really be this good - I'm going in to check) or honest (for real) and funny (most women I imagine you attract like a sense of humor). While the ballots are still coming in, I say run it. OLD is a crap-shoot anyway.
