The following is an excerpt of the perfect OK Cupid profile:

I believe in the importance of a good joke and a good book. I also believe in the importance of a good meal. I am a big fan of “The Simpsons” and “The Big Bang Theory.” I also enjoy “Family Guy,” “South Park,” “The Office,” “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia,” “30 Rock,” and a few others. I like a lot of TV shows. I like to listen to a lot of podcasts. I spend a lot of time at the gym. I’m on a kickboxing class that I love. I also like to run and swim. I’m not sure how I’ll incorporate these things into my future family life, but I know I will. My favorite musicians are The National, Death Cab for Cutie, Elliott Smith, The Decemberists, and so many others. I also love classical music. I’m not sure how I’ll incorporate these things into my future family life, but I know I will. I like to read. I don’t read as much as I used to, but I love to read. I love to read books that make me think. I also love to read books that make me laugh.

 

The following is an excerpt of the perfect OK Cupid profile for someone who loves The Nightmare Before Christmas:

I love Tim Burton’s films and wish that I lived in Halloween Town. I sometimes dress like Jack Skeleton for Halloween. I own a replica of the Santa Claw. I have a collection of Oogie Boogie’s wiggling eyes in my closet. I think it’s adorable when Jack and Sally kiss. I want to be the Mayor of Halloween Town when I grow up. I want to marry a skeleton. I am a skeleton. I want to be a skeleton.
