The Comeback Challenge Round Results Round 47 ~ Fish Fear Me








Welcome to the 47th round of The Dating Comeback Challenge - the aquatic theme. There's something fishy around here!

I thought this week's questions were "challenging" but not to fear. The contestants brought their A games. My favorite response was from that funny guy from Singapore, Anyhow who writes Anyhow Blogs. The question was "Looking For the Write One" and his comeback? "She wrote off into the sunset after reading what you said."
Ha!
With smarts like that in the dating pool, there's hope for me yet. Let's see what the comedians have to say this week to our strange bachelor gene pool. Remember, questions are from the original profiles. Spelling disasters are not my own.
