Got a random text today that said "Hello sam it's Johnathan from match.com".

First, I'm not Sam, nor is my number associated with any match.com site. I'm happily married with a 3 month old terrorizing my sleeping habits. It's clearly a wrong number, but could lead to an extremely entertaining exchange.

Unless your wife is exceedingly cool and/or has a good sense of humor, I'd err on the side of a quick note back that says "sorry, wrong number" and then delete the message.

I've known too many women who would freak out about something like this.

Tell him thanks, but that you're really more in to livestock and show horses.

Text back and say:

"I am from the future, Jonathan. With a message: do NOT vote for David Grayson in 2020. Tell the world!!! Also, don't go to Subway on 5/16/2016. A car hits you in the parking lot and breaks your hip."

<<<THIS>>> Don't try any tricks or seek revenge. They know your number and can wreak havoc on your life if they get bored and look for entertainment.

Post on Sixpack about it so it looks like you weren't really on match.com trying to hook up with Johnathan?

Well, first, I told my wife and she finds it hilarious, as long as I let him down gently, which I will do soon.

But after trading some pleasantries, he asked me to tell him something about myself that no one would know. And I went with cat lover. I have since sent 9 pictures of cats over, so far, with stories behind each one (with the help of some creative colleagues). He hasn't responded to the texts with the cat pictures, so I'm assuming he's bailed. But the real question, is how many cat pictures do I have to send before he says stop?

If you want to participate, please post a picture of a cat here with a short story behind how the cat got its name or how I came to adopt it. A few of my favorites are:
- A picture of a small grey cat "We call her Ana, short for Anastasia like on 50 Shades of Grey" (female colleague helped on this one)
- A picture of a black male cat "We call him Suspect... I'll let you figure out why"

Needless to say, my emoji game has skyrocketed this afternoon too. What a great way to waste two hours at work today.

I had a lady that kept texting me about buying her horse. I told her I didn't contact her about a horse. She kept texting so I asked for pictures of the horse. She sent me a picture of her riding the horse. I asked if she had any pictures of her riding the horse naked. Never heard back from her.

If you have to ask how many is too many, then you haven't sent enough... clearly...

On my phone and it's a pain to post a pic. Just grab a pic from google images after typing in "Scottish Fold Cat". These damn things can cost as much as a grand... For a cat.

Grab a pic and say:

"I have to admit that I did splurge just a little for my favorite cat named Sean Connery. The breed is a Scottish Fold. My grandma, who has over 40 cats of her own, helped me pick out the name. She loves the real Sean Connery and my little guy too! He's got the cutest folded over ears. It was hard to find him for less than $900 but I got lucky and paid only $825."

Don't care who said what, my real name is not Johnathan.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Googel image search "ceiling cat". Can't post pics at work.
