		<description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.findingmygoddess.com/&quot;&gt;Mark is looking for his Goddess&lt;/a&gt;.  From Mark&apos;s site: &lt;i&gt;My Global Vision addresses and integrates a large number of disciplines. Its ultimate goal is to greatly reduce human suffering on planet Earth. It is deep, complex, and mind-boggling.&lt;/i&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is its title and table of contents:

&lt;i&gt;The Political Manifestation of World Peace and World Joy &#8212; A Grand &quot;Symphony&quot; to Be Performed by the Light Workers of Planet Earth.&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Transformation of Computers and the Computer Industry into the LIGHT.
&lt;li&gt;Transformation of Science into the LIGHT.
&lt;li&gt;Transformation of Health Care into the LIGHT.
&lt;li&gt;...and so on and so forth.
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;It means if we are at a restaurant and I am hungry and you are busy talking, that when our food finally arrives you realize that YOU must take the first bite, and by ignoring your food as you keep yacking away you are making me starve!

Okay. So much for chivalry.&lt;/em&gt;



That brought the lulz.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;&quot;She believes in the light-filled MAGIC of sacred sex. She wants to utilize this magic to manifest our Global Vision. She realizes that her sacred sexual union with me is crucial for manifesting the Global Vision.  If she has been a prostitute, that is GOOD!! We can discuss it at length. I have written a book (not yet published) entitled, Resurrecting the Innocence in Prostitutes. Fascinating topic! And it&apos;s an important part of my Global Vision.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

good gravy</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;What I seek is an exquisite Love Dance in which my male role is to lead (as in ballroom dancing) and my Goddess&apos;s female role is to surrender in ecstasy.&lt;/em&gt;

		<description>&lt;em&gt;you should have empty vases in your home

this is odd and disturbing&lt;/em&gt;

Actually, an ex tells me that this is a normal social expectation in some places, and that she was specifically educated on it by a parent.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Her hair is her own and at least TO HER SHOULDERS. Alternatively, she is willing to grow her hair long for me and keep it long for me. No exceptions.&lt;/em&gt;

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Our civilization widely accepts that a distinction exists between the &quot;material&quot; and the &quot;spiritual.&quot; On one extreme is the money-grubbing scoundrel, and on the other extreme is the humanitarian whose life is spent in selfless service. On one extreme is the person consumed with hatred, jealousy and greed, who constantly thinks about harming other people, and on the other extreme is the person whose mind is peaceful and quiet, and who unconditionally loves everyone.&lt;/em&gt;

Flawed premise is flawed.</description>

		<description>Read this last night, was kind of hoping it would make its way here.  So, those of you with some psychological book-learnin&apos;, what is this (clinically)?  Unbridled narcissism?

The internet sure does allow people to let their freak flag fly in all kinds of specific, TMI kinds of ways, doesn&apos;t it.

&lt;i&gt;This has to be the most extensive, detailed order form for a Real Doll I&apos;ve ever seen in my life.&lt;/i&gt;

That&apos;s hilarious!</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Taught high school chemistry and mathematics for LA Unified Schools, and also twice started my own private schools. Students and their parents love me, but the powers that be in education do not. &lt;/em&gt;

As a former ninth grader, I cannot imagine the unfolding glee of discovering our weird, pervy math teacher who kept trying to give the girls &quot;self-esteem hugs&quot; had a creepy Christian sex magic site and a get-rich-quick scheme to turn the internet into a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.angelbase.com/&quot;&gt;Biblical Lisa Frank orgy.&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Divorced after 17-year marriage. I have three fabulous adult sons and golden relationships with each of them.&lt;/em&gt;

I&apos;d be very interested to know what his ex-wife has to say about him.

&lt;em&gt;I do NOT wish to control my Goddess. &lt;/em&gt;... but:

&lt;em&gt;Alternatively, if her waistline is ALMOST (but not quite) trim, she is willing to trim it down for me and keep it trim for me. &lt;strong&gt;No exceptions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;em&gt;
Her hair is her own and at least TO HER SHOULDERS. Alternatively, she is willing to grow her hair long for me and keep it long for me. &lt;strong&gt;No exceptions&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;

So he doesn&apos;t want to control her, just tell her what to do and how to look.

This reminds me of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.metafilter.com/82187/Susan-Hires-A-Boss&quot;&gt;Susan Hires a Boss&lt;/a&gt;, only more disturbing.</description>

		<description>I was going to make a joke about needing nude shots, but am afraid &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.metafilter.com/82780/One-Gentlemans-Quest-to-Find-His-Goddess#2622461&quot;&gt;MrMoonPie&lt;/a&gt; will post them, and honestly, who does need that?

His email link doesn&apos;t seem to work though.

Also, I don&apos;t mind something like this at all. He&apos;s put thought into it, and has gotten out in front of what he wants, and any woman writing pretty much knows what she&apos;s getting into.

A bit nutty, sure, but timecube nutty? No way.

It beats the hell out of the 90% of match/eharmony profiles out there that don&apos;t give you enough information to know if you even want to waste time with the email.

I can&apos;t wait for the metatalk follow-up where someone links to his site and it&apos;s now a shine to his goddess (but mostly because I want to see a pic of her!).</description>

Especially since he was often one of the casting assistants.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;&lt;q&gt;At this point, we will go back to my place, where I will prepare a dinner specially suited for one as lovely as you. While I am cooking the meal, we will talk about your life, your hopes, and your dreams. At this point, I will unthaw a deluxe bag of jumbo shrimp for you to sample as the appetizer.

There will also be cocktail sauce.

Finally, my dinner of lobster, shipped to me that morning in only the coldest of ice from the finest lobster region in all of Maine, will be completed and placed on the table. Along with the lobster will not only be melted butter, but also side dishes. Some of them will be corn, peas, and baked potato. When the meal is over, we will have dessert and coffee.

At this point, you will be so turned on by this night of dancing and lobster that you will be dying to sex me wild. But instead of taking you to my bedroom to knock boots, I will build your desire even more. I will do this by leading you to my living room, where I will light a fire and hand-feed you the finest strawberries available. If you do not enjoy strawberries, I will have other types of berries at my disposal that can be fed to you in a sexy manner. Between bites, I will offer you sips of champagne in a glass made specifically to maximize your champagne-drinking pleasure.

As much as you want to, you will no longer be able to control your desire. Neither will I. This is when I will lead you to my polar-bear-skin rug so we can do it all night long. You will cry for more, and you shall receive it. I will hit it until you can take no more.&lt;/q&gt;&lt;/em&gt;

I was just pointing out it&apos;s not THAT bad. And he does come off as an ass. It&apos;s kinda sad that he articulates some of his desires as expectations, but you know, if you get with a guy that says &lt;strong&gt;&quot;No Fatties,&quot; &lt;/strong&gt; in his profile (not that this guy said that) then you know exactly what kind of person you are going to get.

Everyone has some of these rules. I have a friend that won&apos;t date women taller than he is. I know women that won&apos;t date bald guys. Yeah, this makes &apos;em a bit shallow, but again, everyone has these ideals. He just needs an editor.</description>

		<description>At first I thought this was a joke. &quot;Willing, wanting, waiting&quot;.

Then I googled &quot;The Angelic Realm of Intellectual Substance&quot;, which is in the copyright declaration. 

I found this: &lt;a href=&quot;http://angelbase.com/&quot;&gt;Angelbase&lt;/a&gt;. Sure enough, there is an image of Veronica the angel- oh wait, I mean the Goddess. If you thought the goddess website was revelatory, read this website....
&lt;blockquote&gt;AngelBase unlocks the creativity in system users, and turns them from &quot;slaves&quot; of the system into &quot;masters&quot; of the system. This represents a profound cultural change that will affect and industry in a very big way. It will also change the way people feel about themselves. A master is happier than a slave.

Graduating from &quot;slave&quot; to &quot;master&quot; is a huge spiritual step that God wants everyone to take. AngelBase will enable this to happen for millions of people.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

There&apos;s even a &lt;a href=&quot;http://angelbase.com/main/demos/housdemo.htm&quot;&gt;demo&lt;/a&gt;.

Searches for demos lead to the ZoomInfo of &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.zoominfo.com/people/Emerson_Mark_813092709.aspx&quot;&gt;Mark Emerson&lt;/a&gt;. In June 2002, he gave a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cs.ucla.edu/db/seminar.html&quot;&gt;talk at UCLA&lt;/a&gt; about Angelbase.

That is all.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Transformation of Computers and the Computer Industry into the LIGHT&lt;/i&gt;

Little does Mark know, but the FORCES OF DARKNESS inside the Computer Industry have already anticipated his upcoming technical innovation and have begun working to destroy it.  Yes, Mark is possibly the greatest, most intelligent Software Developer/Global Visionary on the planet, and he has none other than God on his side.  His invention could transform the Computer Industry, and eventually life itself, into a UTOPIA, which of course would be bad for business.  That is why we must act quickly to be certain that it never becomes a reality.  As we speak, GOOGLE and MICROSOFT employees are repeating the incantations and performing the ritual sacrifices necessary to strike fear into the hearts of his potential investors.  I could go on, but I fear I&apos;ve said too much already.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;&quot;You are the GIRL. Chivalry is about you allowing me to HONOR the girl in you. This means you let ME walk on the street side of the sidewalk, and you let ME open all doors for you (including when you are exiting from my car). It means you let ME decide where I would like to take you (e.g. what restaurant, what concert, what hotel, etc.), and when I tell you where I would like to take you, you tell me your FEELINGS with the understanding that if I sense that you are uncomfortable or disappointed with my offer, then I will change it because my goal is to make you HAPPY.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

That&apos;s great. I was hoping for some kind of unifying handle for this genre of website. I know we have posted others similar to Mark&apos;s, and would be genuinely interested in less LOLzy examinations of what&apos;s going on besides &quot;zomg batshit&quot;.

I do love the lulz, though.</description>

		<description>Putting aside the initial cringe factor, I tend to view these HereMyFreakFlagWaves.com things as exercises in copywriting-- that is, we shouldn&apos;t attempt to infer much at all about how this guy &lt;em&gt;really&lt;/em&gt; thinks... only that by spewing buzzwords of Set X, within the narrative frame Y, he&apos;s testing the idea that a &lt;strike&gt;woman&lt;/strike&gt; Goddess of certain qualities...

or a woman of other, or even contrary qualities, who for some reason enjoys or needs to identify with the woman he describes...

or who is angered by the image, but somehow intrigued by it...

will appear.

		<description>I had my application e-mail halfway typed out until I ran into this
&lt;i&gt;Okay. So much for chivalry. Now I need to warn you that three extremely popular things are not a part of my life:
Rock Music. I dislike rock music. I came of age in the 1960s and never liked it. It saps my energy and turns me off.
. . . 
Pets. I love all animals and they love me. Indeed, as a vegetarian, I am in no way responsible for their slaughter. I even catch indoor bugs and release them outdoors. But I&apos;m not a pet person. Physical contact with animals (especially dogs) drains my energy.&lt;/i&gt;

dammit!!</description>

I read his patent, and no, it&apos;s not very revolutionary.  He takes an RDBMS and slaps a Microsoft Bob style conceptual gloss on it.  Sadly, it does not talk about how humans are turned into light, so that will have to remain a mystery.</description>

		<description>Oh, and I think he&apos;s using the word &quot;vision&quot; not in the usual way (emphasis added):

&lt;blockquote&gt;With God (and if my karma proves good enough), I will find some degree success with my &lt;strong&gt;huge vision&lt;/strong&gt;. If not, I will at least have enjoyed the adventure of daring to go for it.

Why am I sharing this &lt;strong&gt;Global Vision&lt;/strong&gt; with you? Because it tells you a whole lot about who I am. I am a man who DARES to dream the impossible dream, and who DARES to devote his life to realizing it. &lt;strong&gt;I am seeking a woman who LOVES my vision&lt;/strong&gt; and WANTS to be my intimate partner in the adventure of going for it, whether we succeed or fail.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

No, you guys, you wont understand his revolution until he changes all the HARDWARE we are currently running on.  Once the computers themselves have been sprinkled with angel dust (the magical kind, altho maybe he will just use some PCP) you will see what he&apos;s talking about.</description>

		<description>I think I&apos;ve seen John Fitzgerald Page out and about town. What a narcissist! The thing that really gets me is the &lt;a href=&quot;http://johnfitzgeraldpage.com/Merchandis.aspx&quot;&gt;merchandise page&lt;/a&gt;:

&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Wedding Date:  Be like Debra Messing!  Available for high school reunions, weddings, formals, soirees, balls, fundraisers, proms (18+), galas, red carpet/charity events, office parties, etc.  $149.99 for 1/2 day, $249.99 a day (plus expenses).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Autographed DVD&apos;s: Pick any movie from my &quot;Movie Posters&quot; page. Make sure your pause button is in good working order... $24.99.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Autographs: I doubt Bin Laden, Hitler or Stalin would come cheaper. $19.99.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Action Figure:  Comes with martini glass, tux, Hot (or Not) Wheels BMW convertible, braces, Ivy League diploma, mirror, Mensa/SAG card, weights.  (Bachelor Pad sold separately).  $49.99.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
Mark just seems sad, deluded, and lonely, a bit like Peter Pan without the snazzy outfit. John makes me glad I can largely avoid the Buckhead crowd and attendant egos.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;He takes an RDBMS and slaps a Microsoft Bob style conceptual gloss on it.&lt;/em&gt;

It&apos;s a Ponzi scheme. Go to the main front page. I&apos;m betting that the only thing that the RDBMS is for is to keep track of your downstream line.

&lt;em&gt;Sadly, it does not talk about how humans are turned into light, so that will have to remain a mystery.&lt;/em&gt;

That part happens after you&apos;re caught out with no paying downstream people and you burst into an incandescent rage, spontaneously combusting.

Shit, my wallet was right here next to the computer. All I did is go visit that... site... HEY, FUCKO GIVE IT BACK.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;She does not have too many unwelcome thoughts, nor does she experience a lot of &quot;mental chatter&quot;&#8212;her mind is fairly quiet... for some of the time, anyway.&lt;/i&gt;

AKA: &quot;Women are at, best, dullwitted creatures, best kept sedated and well dressed, rather like small obedient children.  Too much chatter can only lead to confusion and hysteria.&quot;

Funny how much Goddesses and idealized slaves have in common, eh?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;She QUESTIONS so-called &quot;authority&quot; and HATES the concept of &quot;blind obedience to authority.&quot; She is appalled by the results of the famous Milgram Experiment in psychology which show that &quot;normal&quot; people will intentionally inflict what they believe is torture on another person simply because an &quot;authority&quot; figure instructed them to do so.&lt;/i&gt;

Says the man making demands on women as instructed by God.</description>

		<description>I kind of wish he&apos;d find this thread. I&apos;m betting Mark could write a really special sort of jilted, embarrassed rebuttal to all this snarking. A lot if it would be underlined. We would surely be accused of lacking the enlightenment to grasp his &lt;b&gt;GLOBAL VISION.&lt;/b&gt; In fact, I&apos;m kind of surprised he hasn&apos;t. Dude absolutely strikes me as the type to camp his own traffic analysis window and thoroughly research any and all referrals. 

Then again, he wrote a personal ad with a table of contents - he clearly doesn&apos;t understand how the interwebs work.

Come on, Mark! We&apos;re being pretty damn anti-spiritual here. How is your Goddess to buy your boast of ABSOLUTE PROTECTION when you let MeFi get away with all these lulz?</description>
