A certain lefty appears to be lookin’ for love.
UPDATE. You’d think Mr Lefty would be happy to have his search for companionship brought to a wider audience, but he’s cat–slappin’ mad. This touchy response to a little online assistance bodes ill for any RSVP dates-to-be. Interesting that he’s limiting his options to women within 25 km of whitebread Ringwood, where residents are 14% more likely to have been born in Australia than is the population of greater Melbourne; our Lefty mate is a romance isolationist!
UPDATE II. Lefty routinely dishes it out but becomes outraged by a mere link to his dating site. If he had a jaw, it’d be of the most fragile crystal.

- I would’ve thought the cat and the wacky nom de stalk (Rowan, as in Atkinson, geddit? What a laugh!) would’ve been a real giveaway. Ironic his star sign is that of the bull, and not in reference to willy size but more in regards the quality of his work.
but what a hornbag- no girlie* could resist his obvious charm, rugged, manly physique and witty repartee’.
*Limited of course to ladies of this type, who also have fairly advanced audio-visual impairment and a limited sense of smell.
My first thought was that it was Niall Cook, so it was a relief to find it was gormless Jeremy- I’d rather not know what Cookies tastes run to.

- I’d say he’s most likely to spend the next three months chatting th and texting the following:-
1/. A morbidly obese interstate truckie with gender confusion and crabs, posing as “Molly”, a pretty, petite brunette with an honours degree in astrophsics;
2/. A German cannibal trying to groom him for the broiler, posing as “Heidi”, a young blond nyphmaniac who promises to swallow, and isn’t lying;
3/. A really cruel former classmate who signs onto the chat site as “Lola”, and promises all manner of erotic fantasy fulfilment, and when Jeremy lets on aboult his fetish for catsuits, the former classmate will send all Jezza’s pathetic, pervie correrspondence to everyone who has ever known him, and several who don’t.
Seriously, what sort of a minger does he expect to pick up from one of these loser libraries? He’s a fucking lawyer for fucks sake- every one of the venal bastards I know has to fight off predatory slappers with a shitty stick every Friday night- Porsche ownership and a wallet the size of a David Hicks are suprisingly pheremonal.

Does Tim surf RSVP sites looking for left wing men?
#2, we RWDBs control and store the entire internet from a single computer in Texas (or is it now in Brussels?) so it is easy to track any left wing activity. Since the left generally don’t do anything (apart from talk incessantly and participate in meaningless feel-good gestures), their internet dating activity tends to top the watch lists circulated by our Dark Lord and Master.

- RSVP has more than a few cranks on it.
My ex had a profile up there for years behind my back, for example, and I’ve been known to put a dodgy profile up every now and then just to see what sort of idiots bite.
Surely when your profile says that your ideal partner should be breathing people would get the hint you’re taking the piss?
I once got a couple of emails from Geoffrey Edelstein.
That frightened me off playing silly buggers on sites like that for a long time.

- To all those people wishing ‘Wally’ well –
Jeremy’s a moronic paste eating heavy mouth breathing leftist knob-jockey who’s been educated beyond the limits of his intelligence.He doesnt need your sympathy –
He just needs a nice conservative lady to slap some sense into his little pointy chinless head.
- We have a chap at work whos probably pulling in around $200,000 a year week on week off.
He got me to use my logon to check if he had any new messages on his RSVP site. He had around 200 different ladies on his “hit list” and about 4 on the go at once.
Hes V fit and I suppose handsome in a bald, Klaus Kinski sort of way, but the net lets him work on the bulk theory.
He figures for every 10 or so he hits on 2 will go out with him, 1 will give him a root, and the other 8 were just padding.

Not at all, “Ash”. I half-expected as much when I put the profile up. Not definitely – I had thought there was a mild possibility Timmeh would have better things to post about. But I’m amused to see that my first instinct was right, and to see him confirm that he really is that pathetic and spiteful.
I imagine most Blair readers are fairly nonplussed by it, though. Wow, a lefty on a dating site. TELL ME MORE.
- eeniemeenie – that was exactly what I was thinking.

- “#60 Jeremy, Jeremy, Jeremy!!! didn’t you write a certain comment on your blog about Greg Sheridan’s dad? Wasn’t that (how do you say…) pathetic and spiteful? Aren’t you therefore fair game?”
Ah, no. I wrote a comment about Sheridan’s USE of his dad’s death in an opinion article in the newspaper.
Somewhat different to picking out someone’s dating profile for (well, attempted) mockery. (I’m fairly confident that, unlike Sheridan Jr, I didn’t put the profile in the opinion section of the newspaper and encourage people to link to it.)
But, whatever. If it excites Timmeh to try to have a go (his idiotic attack on me over the result in a case I hadn’t run didn’t work very well, did it), fine. I’m not hugely surprised, and I’ve got thicker skin than to be intimidated by someone like Blair.
I’m surprised you guys are interested though. Is this what you come to Blairville for?
- I deal professionally with couples looking to make things permanent and legal. Most meet through work or social groups. Some meet via on-line agencies and often these types are ill-matched and desperate (‘any port in a storm’). Mostly it’s second time around and one or both are more than ordinarily plain. And often there are little encumbrances.
My advice: to find someone like-minded and congenial join a common interest group, club, or society. Even the ALP! Once you get past 30 the cream is taken and it’s slim pickings.

- Hmm, I’m not a fan of Jeremy’s blog, never have been. The guy’s a nuff nuff, but this is a bit cruel.
If he had publicised his marital separation on his blog, it might be less objectionable. Or even if he’d described himself as MrLefty or Jeremy in the RSVP ad…
Clearly, however, by using a different psuedonym and by not mentioning it on his blog, he wanted to maintain his privacy. So, as far as I’m concerned, it’s his private business.
Which reminds me: I keep meaning to write a post about my theory about Greens being a brand of conservatism. In their most extreme form, they want to stop development and go back to nature – in essence, they want to wind back the clock and return to a “sustainable” society with limited impact on the environment…if it’s taken to the extreme, we go back to being hunter-gatherers (unless we belong to the elite and have money for carbon-credits). That, to my mind, is intrinsically conservative. Will have to keep percolating that idea.

I’m well aware of Jeremy’s positions on a number of issues – I’ve locked horns with him several times in the past on a number of worthy issues. This isn’t a worthy issue. Paying out on the guy cos he’s looking for love after a marriage breakup is ugly and callous and makes you look like a prat. Try playing the ball some time.

- #98, he wasn’t posting about relationship woes. He just listed his status as “separated”, and put himself on a dating website (as people are entitled to do). That’s quite different.
I suspect he foolishly thought no one would come across his profile (he’s not very good at disguising his identity, as has been proven before).
I just don’t feel comfortable laughing at other people’s misfortunes just because they happen to hold different political views to me. This is even though Jeremy is a twit and has done the same to others (eg, Greg Sheridan’s father – a pretty low act in my opinion).
In relation to #99 – I would certainly agree that many Greens are reactionary – just jumping on whatever the latest “scare campaign” is – ooh! uranium! ooh! greenhouse effect! etc. But I maintain there is also an element of conservatism in its traditional sense – because it’s all about preserving the status quo. I’ll save the rest of that argument for a blog post. 🙂

No, I was fairly sure one of those idiots at TSSH would come across it. (I’d given Blair 50% odds of having the dignity to think posting on something so irrelevant was beneath him, but I’m not all that surprised it wasn’t. He does have form.)

“I just don’t feel comfortable laughing at other people’s misfortunes just because they happen to hold different political views to me. This is even though Jeremy is a twit and has done the same to others (eg, Greg Sheridan’s father – a pretty low act in my opinion).”
I think you need to reread the piece on Sheridan. I wasn’t “laughing at [his] misfortune”. I was critiquing a clearly political rant in the opinion section written under the guise of an obituary. There’s a huge difference.
“I would certainly agree that many Greens are reactionary”
Bullshit. The Greens are progressive. They (we) believe in concentrating on public services like public health, public education, public transport etc; in libertarian positions on things like sexuality, drugs and other moral issues, and yes, in living in a fashion that’s sustainable in the long-term. Hardly reactionary – I’d have thought it was common sense to consider the long-term effect of our actions now.
“Reactionary”? “Conservative”? Hardly. Although we are conservative on the subject of the rule of law; there seem to be a fair few righties who want to abandon hundreds of years of western jurisprudence at the sight of the first Islamic terrorist.
But that’s not a debate I’m going to have in Tim Blair’s sandpit, of course.

I love that you have to mention your blog in your RSVP profile too, Jezza.

I was also unaware that Pine Gap was part of the new Caliphate as well- after all, that’s where she’s been farting about lately.

When this man eventually dies he should be stuffed and put in a USN museum somewhere.

- Of course if it doesn’t work out on RSVP there are always other options:
You could try some inflateable love (NSFW).
Pros – No nagging, easily replaceable
Cons – Punctures, can’t clean itselfOr how about some Johnny Cakes?
Pros – Instant progressive cred, never asks if arse looks fat in these jeans
Cons – Not female, probably has back hair, could be a topIf all else fails, try one of these
Pros – Looks good in HD without makeup, warranty
Cons – Expensive, not many exclusive titles.See, tons of options!
- Jezza, I believe it was on your doomed Melbourne Lefty blog where you said that Team America World Police was a great big pro right wing conspiracy. Because that scene at the beginning where they destroyed Paris, you know that satirical one, wasn’t blunt enough for you to get where they were coming from.
My “abysmal” site is still getting a shitload more traffic than yours, Wally. Maybe it will completely “fall apart” if the new owner takes a leaf out of your book and takes up catblogging.

- I just wish I’d booked into a dating thingie like RSVP after my divorce – I just did the real life dating thing – and ended up with a lefty who loves Algore, Bob Brown, idolises Whitlam, turned off the lights on Saturday night (I went to Woolies for an hour and browsed through all the red wines), and thinks if John Howard is voted in again the world will end
So goodonya Jeremy for doing the RSVP thing and I hope you meet the lovely greenie girl of your dreams
If you were so inclined I would gladly give you my resident lefty bloke – he comes with all the right (left) credentials

- #148 Absolute bullshit.
(You really should consider teaming up with Slandy, Caz. Where in most places shamelessly lying through your teeth would be seen as a drawback, in Slandy world it’s a positive boon!)
And I love Timmeh’s update. That’s right – he linked to the RSVP profile to “assist” me, and not in any way to be a loathsome spiteful twat. Gee, thanks mate. Hope I can one day return the favour.
- Jeremy, I distinctly remember reading it. Why would I bother making that up? Of course I can’t link to the post because your Melbourne Lefty archives are no longer even on the Google cache – I just checked to try and back this up.
There are hundreds of other examples of your complete lack of humour on your current site. But if I linked to any of them you’d just claim to be “taken out of context”. Once more. Because you’re that predictable.
Where in most places shamelessly lying through your teeth would be seen as a drawback, in Slandy world it’s a positive boon!)
And it’s also a great skill to have if you want to worm your way into political office with a party like the Greens too, I hear. I can’t believe they elected you as an office bearer. Must be slim pickings in the Victorian division, eh?

- #145 NilknarF – My father came from Adelaide too. Said very little about the war, never joined the RSL etc. The little I have discovered came from the son of his navigator. Of the ten RAAF aircrew who left on a small freighter in 1941 to go to the UK, he was the only one that returned.
He never said much but he would have been disgusted with the actions of Hicks and his idiot supporters

- Mr Lefty, you’re a loser, albeit a very wealthy one being a man of the silk
But go away, you’re boring, we’re talking about you, not to you.

- #157 Agreed. The only times I heard my dad talk about Vietnam were when he was drunk with his army buddies on Anzac Day. Mum also told me a few stories that he’d told her.
And they were all amusing ones – no blood and guts adventure tales like Hicks was apparently looking for.

- #159 – Clients? They only need one. After many years and mellowing by both, I met my ex and we were sitting in the pub having a beer.
She: You know, we could have been drinking Veuve Cliquot now if it hadn’t been for those bloody lawyers all those years ago
Me: You’re absolutely rightIsn’t life strange, a turn of the page …

Once you get past 30 the cream is taken and it’s slim pickings.
Great. Thanks for the fricking encouragement.

- RSVP is crawling with separated/divorced women who are convinced they are a minor deity, are back studying at Uni and are politically to the left of Bob Brown. He will be swatting them away.Posted by boxofmatches on 2007 04 02 at 11:19 AM • permalink
- On Green politics, I like to say that Bob Brown is the most intolerant Australian politician around. Lefties recoil and tell me how open and welcoming he is.
Well, yes, but on that very narrow Bob world view. If you fall outside that narrow vision; he wants to close this, stop this, demand this and he wants it to happen today. Howard is far more diverse and tolerant in his views.

People aren’t laughing at him because of his different political views. They are laughing because he’s a living parody of those views.

- Well, he’s been outed. No since in holding back now. I suggest Mr. Lefty maneuver for a post on Dating Psychos.
- Murph, add me to the list, I find this pant-shittingly funny.
I dabbled at one of these sites once (think it was LavaLife, crikey what a bunch of weirdos there…). From memory, most of the chicks value honesty, sense of humour and open-mindedness most highly.

- The one thing I have learnt from internet dating sites, is that people who are down to earth, have a good sense of humour and are independent are most likely to be single.
Dreamy, co-dependent, malcontents must be getting all the action.

- Re : #114 : Anyone doubting his sense of humour, just try reading these lines without bursting out laughing.
“I would certainly agree that many Greens are reactionary”
Bullshit. The Greens are progressive.
Oh dear, that one brought tears to my eyes.
A pleasant change from a lot of the venom and bile in this thread. I still think it should never have been started.
Oh and Rob, re #163 : There’s a lot of late-30s women whose biological clocks are making them increasingly desperate. A lot aren’t looking for “Mr Right” any more, they’ll settle for “Mr Acceptable”.
Single Mums tend to have higher standards. The way to her heart is to be a wonderful Father figure to her kids. But it has to be genuine, instinctive.
The trouble is, yes, at age 40+, all the good ones have been taken, in general. There are always widows though, and many divorcees will thank their lucky stars that they found someone like you rather than the total Asshole they married before.
And finally, it could be worse. You could be trying to explain that due to a medical condition, you used to look like a girl, and was pretty much forced by circumstances to live as a woman for 40 years.

- Margos If you get to canberra, check out the Australian print making at the national gallery it was wonderful.
Grace Crowley exhibit was a great view.I’m off to a sneak peak at the ballet tomorrow at the opera house.
I was an extra in the ballet, i had one more year and I could teach dance, but I had to stop.

- The search for love is far more productive and human than much of the left’s pastinmes these days. Good luck, Mr Lefty!
Continuing the above thought slightly, it occurred to me, after a perusal of Loewenstein’s My Israel Question, that AL’s comments on his relationship were the warmest and most sincere parts of the book.
Only a couple of lines though…Posted by carpefraise on 2007 04 02 at 11:58 PM • permalink
- Imagine if a secretly right wing girl went on a date with him and then spilled the beans about the actual conversation – he’d explode, causing an endless chain reaction, massively rasing CO2 levels and thereby bring about the catastrophe he is seeking to avert !Posted by Jimmythespiv on 2007 04 03 at 02:19 AM • permalink
