- They weren't making fun of him because he's looking for a girlfriend.
- They're making fun of him because this isn't a correct place to post
- a personal ad. Personally, I don't think that the accent jokes were
- very funny, but that's Usenet. It's an anarchy and the only way we
- can enforce rules is to point and laugh when you break them. (Actually,
- I think that might be a good idea in the Real World too.) He can
- either post personal ads to alt.personals or soc.penpals, or he can
- join in the conversation here.
