My MAN APP

I don't know much about it, but I don't like AI.  I keep seeing ads and Serious Segments discussing pros and cons and, oh my, the possibilities; but I'm not buying.  Sure, it's easier to read the AI-generated answer to a question I'm Googling; but I really don't mind looking up things myself.

Besides, as far as I can tell I can't get rid of AI on my laptop.  Even while typing this blog, there's an annoying blue circle with a pencil and a plus-sign obscuring my words which doesn't go away.  So any typos I can blame on AI...ahh, I get it!

Something else disturbing are segments discussing young men; their anger issues; and their AI-generated girlfriends.  What a warped generation (we're) raising.

So this morning I'm watching an Amazon ad, clearly instructing how to point the phone at a CHAIR and - BLIP  - several similarities pop up immediately; you can even change the color.  That's when I thought:

WHY don't they invent an APP in which I can point my phone at a MAN I'd be interested in dating

and - BLIP - I'm immediately shown availability in my area. Where I can add my own filters, let's see what I'd like:

AGE:  Over 55
SEX:  Occasionally
HEIGHT:  Taller than me (5'2")
WEIGHT:  Able to fit in a single airline seat
HAIR:  Not necessary
EYES:  Preferably two; sexy eyepatch a plus
RACE:  No, thanks, I'm not sporty

Those are the Basics; now for Advanced:

SENSE OF HUMOR:  Gotta have
EDUCATION:  I don't care about a bunch of diplomas on the wall, but someone who can carry on a conversation without constantly inserting the word, like.
WEALTH:  Money's nice but it doesn't buy taste or manners; which are required.  Someone who can pick up the tab for dinner, at least; I'll reciprocate.
FAMILY:  Ugh.  By this age, the chance of dealing with another difficult Mother-in-Law is slim; but kids? Hmmm...that's a tough one - grandchildren leashed.
PETS:  Absolutely!  Leash not required.
RELIGION:  A spiritual soul, but nothing extreme.  No guarantee which direction I'll be heading.
POLITICS:  Boy, if I insist on a Democrat I'm liable to miss out on the rest.  Well, a moderate Republican or Independent might fit, but we'd have to lay some groundwork first.  Foreigners welcome - actually preferred.
PHILANTHROPY:  Someone willing to explore the world and volunteer along the way.

Oh, and most importantly:  NOT ATTACHED TO THEIR SMARTPHONE

There's more, but I don't want to appear too picky.  Mom always said, "Put it in your consciousness."

That's all - no moral to the story.  I'm just trying to keep from dwelling on,

"I can go one more day without heading to the grocery store."
