@Canageek We had those in my campus newspaper in the early 00s, but they were (a little) less creepy because it was limited to the campus audience. Still kinda weird, I think.
"You were the cute barista with the pink hair; I was too nervous to approach you even though I really needed a coffee. Call me?"

@Canageek I can't imagine they work, but it's a time honoured tradition that continues to exist on sites like Craigslist.

@ink_slinger *reads them* Yeah, a couple are creepy. One is "We had a great time last night, but after the drinks I forgot contact info" which is amusing

@ink_slinger I knew they existed on Craigslist, but it is weirder in print somehow....
