Some more side notes |9:20 AM| My idea to set up a service specifically for finding an enemy or possibly an arch nemesis is gaining popularity. I may just contact the okcupid people and ask if I can have all their source code. While I'm at it, I'll ask for the fillings in their teeth, and the women on the front page as my own private dish washers.
Maybe the first "matches" made will be the okcupid guys/gals hating my guts.
There'd have to be some obvious changes to the matching system, since you couldn't just reverse the way people are scored. A good nemesis or arch foe would be an equal in some fashion, someone difficult for you to utterly destroy, otherwise you wouldn't grow as a person. Oh, and it wouldn't be as satisfying.
Anyone can steal a basketball from a couple of grade school kids, dump it in liquid nitrogren and then smash it with a hammer in front of them. It takes real effort to find someone whose whole family needs to be shattered. Without challenges, you just stagnate.
Oh, the possesive form of who is whose, not who's.
UPDATE: I don't know if this pre or post-dates OKcupid's implementing the "Enemy" percentage, a rough estimate of how much you disagree with someone. But if it pre-dates them wow. This update was made 1-26-07
