This week presents us with yet another Missed Connection that rises above all others. Even classy ladies at Burger King. The post below reeks of a Sex in the City fan. We should know. We've dated a couple. The post is long but worth it. To you, super-cute guy that did not have sex with me - w4m - 24 Oh, super-cute guy. I was so thrilled when you text messaged me yesterday asking......

Every so often we're too lazy to read every MC there's a Missed Connection that stands out from the crowd. This is one of those so oftens. just a kiss... - w4m I’m a girl. (or woman, what have you) I’m in my mid 20s.

Houstonist found this Dad missing his daughter to be the saddest Missed Connection in our career of lighting up you chumps for sucking at talking to folks. Mr. Man, you need to hold yourself together. Like that old lady at the laundromat says, "Home is where your midget is." Reduce the 900 miles to 9 and you're in business.

Houstonist is proud of y'all for heating up the Missed Connections action this week. Holy schnikes! We haven't seen assertiveness like this since we got handcuffed to the Texas Table last week, but that's a whole nother story. Props to the "Didn't Know It Poets," too. Chicks on bikes are hot; desperation are not. Missed Connection i've never had - m4w I've been browsing the missed connection section for weeks and weeks thinking hmmmm,......

Knock it off, morons. Listing a Missed Connection doesn't improve your karma, make your lottery numbers come up nor does it make the hottie from Accounts Payable dig your chili. However, driving a Volkswagen may get you noticed. Ah, fahrvergnügen. The hottie cop just may pull you over if you're lucky. Desperately seeking Ruth . - m4wWhy won't you talk to me? I have called your parents many times and left my number time......

Houstonist's brain cell is put to the test each week as we try to pick-out the best Missed Connections for the write-up. This week was no exception. Typically the MC's we highlight focus on are blown hook-ups or lust - like the dude looking for Jean Girard or Funky Cold Medina. Occasionally folks try to reach non-lover types like the hit-and-run jackass from Avondale & Whitney. This week's selection falls into the non-lover category,......

Each year around this time, a report comes out that makes us guys feel like losers when trying to compete with the jerk in the traditional holiday classic “Twelve Days of Christmas.” This year, the Houston Business Journal reports that his never-ending love for his sweetheart will put him back $18,920 – a 3.1 percent increase over last year. It seems the largest increase this year comes from the tree he decides to put the......
