Here is another one from OkCupid, this one was so bad he says he's from Chicago and grew up in Maryland but his english is terrible. Seriously, it's almost funny.

Here is the email exchange:

Me: Hi John, I'm so glad you got back to me. How was your weekend? More importantly, how come you have an Australian email addy? :)

"John": My weekend was great hun, i'm glad to read from you as well. Yes, i set the email up when i was back in AU.. sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. How was your day today ? Did you think about me or the blue eyes lool..I hope to read back soon.
Hugs

Me: So, what did you do last weekend, anything fun? Tell me something about yourself. Where in Chicago do you live? What do you like to do for fun?

"John": I had to a lot of paper works i did this past weekend so it was quite a busy one, plus i had to do a lil shopping which wasn't bad. I live North Jefferson. It's on West Loop of Chicago, located just blocks from the Loop and River North.. For fun, Indoors and Outdoors are all good so long as you have the right company. I enjoy spending time with my kid (that's one of my best hobbies though!!). I also like to read magazines and sometimes talk about/debate over a hot article. Your turn...

Me: John, you are not a native english speaker, where did you grow up?

"John": i grew up in silver spring, MD.... u?

*I laughed so hard I almost wet myself with that response. :laugh-s: And that is when I stopped communicating with him. This my friends is why you should never depend on Google translate..... Hope this keeps someone from being this moron's victim. LL*
