No, I was not seating on my ass looking at the snow falling, no not at all. In fact, I have been kidnapped by the M’s army, the Marmy as we call them in my profession. Yes I swear it is true ( it swear….ish) And you know it is a difficult job, very dangerous. What they did this time, is torture me in the hope that I was going to give your names but I did NOT, I swear, maybe something to do with the fact that I don’t know them.
Anyway after trying to extract information from me, they then tried to bribe me, offering large amount of money for me to stop writing about them, did I accept… No of course… in fact yes for a couple of weeks and then my conscious took over and I had to come back here and talk to you all friends ( yes that would be me then!)
So M in the snow, do you need special tires or do you have to expect delays?
NO it is still very slippery and easy to crash on completely unexpected obstacles. Key characteristic of M is like participating to Holidays on Ice bear foot…. The snow is just adding some unexpected weirdness. It is even stranger all these photos of the summer holidays. Guys/Ladies are you sometime taking picture of yourself somewhere else than on the beach or next to some ruin? Please some originality here, you all want smart people with a sense of humour, so please think of the rare funny and clever guy/girl (sorry I forgot he/she is also good looking of course) who is going to consult your profile. You are putting a lot of effort on writing a nice self ad (we have already covered this subject – Hello again Ugly Punishment)…but your photos….Please, your ex taking a picture of you on the beach is a nice though….but does not related to the day to day of snowy winter and even the place, it is M after all!!!
So try one photo of you falling on the slippery pavement, or while you taking a picture of your car for the insurance, take a spare one of you nearly smiling.
Talking of which, it is December, I should have done an advent calendar, could have been fun.

Father xmas where are you.
Xmas is coming soon, the wind is bla bla … you get the picture. But it is also time of xmas party at work and even for those who are still managing to have social life despite M, you may go the club event or meet with group to celebrate.
For me who spending my first xmas on M, and last, I am not aware of the custom. Are we all going to a party somewhere the 100 000 of us (this is a low estimate) or are we setting up a virtual party online? Surely some of you know, and who is organising. Who is sending the invite?
Of course all this questions in my mind are just because I am concerned that I have been forgotten , I would like so much to exchange a virtual cracker, put my virtual hat and wish you all one by one a very happy xmas. Of course as in any xmas party we will bitch about the boss but as I am doing it semi professionally on this blog in the first place I would be super fine.
Would be so fun to see how our friend Bob from accounting….oups, sorry does not work here…..Would be so fun to see how our friend Bob_3453 from the 35-40 age bracket is getting drunk online and start flirting with all the ladies….oups sorry again, I have the feeling that for the ladies around they have already experienced this one, in fact I am guessing that it is a regular occurance on M.
For those concerned about my comments above, yes! please! remember it is just 4 lines above. Yes I am not planning more than one xmas here. Yes it is fun but I feel you have to do it for a limited amount of time, like drinking too much of M can be bad for your health.

The beast
Let’s talk about the beast, Meetic or M as I like to call it.
Created in 2001, floated on the stock market in 2005, € 135 M turn over (this is my, your Euro!) 170 employees, absorb Match.com in June this years….. Do you want to know more… No really?
No, I understand these are scary numbers, we are fighting a big corporate (mmh I like the idea!).
Of course this presentation is a little bit less romantic than the PR material but hey, there is a business behind it, can you imagine being the CFO of M, you go at a dinner party “so what are you doing? Oh I am a CFO – Really which company? –Meetic - ………”
You better to come with your wife and she is better not to be 20 years younger than you and blonde!
God, can you imagine this 170 employees going to work in the morning! What a strange feeling, what do you do in life? I help people to meet their partner (and this is the civilized part of M... I am not capable to imagine the more sordid part)
So to the M employees, Don t take it personally, you are just having a job like us, but the company you are working for is very bizarre. If employees have comments you are welcome!

It is time to expend the Empire after all my successful commercial venture: Clinic, Advertising, Games, we will know provide a service of private investigation. This is not match maker type of service at all this is proper investigation.
Imagine you meet a nice man from Meetic, you want to know if he is lying to you, if we stopped playing on Meetic, for a very large fee (yes camels again) we will investigate him, my fully train team will even set up trap to catch the bad guys or girls. Yes ethic is not big on us we have no shame and will go to any extreme to bring you back proof of the twisted mind, even if we have to create the proof from scratch
How funny is this life, you tell me: you meet somebody online and the immediate expectation is you are not going online again, I am not talking from personal experience here but I was in private consultation yesterday with somebody who seemed to have find a great guy (yes yes it seems that there are some and no no it is not me! – note to myself: should I be upset about that?) and the question pop up: shall we be concerned if this guy is online. I could not investigate myself because although my multi personality disorder pushed me to create 1453 profiles, it seems that I don’t have gender disorder and I have created only male profiles. But you can see now where the lucrative idea came from and why I needed to set up a board meeting today at Meeticisbadforyou Inc.
However our initial research shows that a lot of persons are not over bother about partnership and are fairly happy to find friendship (be aware, that the worst meeting are in fact when there are mismatch in term of expectation between a person looking for friendship and person looking for something else), therefore some people will carry on their initial discussion.
However the general convention is you can talk to anybody and spend as much time as you want on Meetic, but if you meet somebody face to face and are planning to see him/her again, you should not go back on Meetic (make sure you have email address of mobile before!)
So explain!
