Willing29 66 Posted January 8, 2009 I was just on our SLS account and our tag line simply says "Fun Loving Couple" which is good but I was wondering if others here have better ones that are not too pushy or to lame. I know I can search online but was just wondering what you guys think the really good ones are that will attract attention. I was thinking about changing it to "Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler!" but not speaking cajun nor french it might sound as if we are posers. Comments? Quote Share this post Link to post
babycole 105 Posted January 8, 2009 Hmmmm....I really can't say that the tag line usually is a big deal for us. Of course, a funny, witty one always catches our eyes, but that's an ideal quality that I personally look for in a person that I will be around. I would say why not search profiles that are not in your area, and if you see a tag line that you just absolutely love, borrow it. The likelyhood that person coming across yours and saying "They stole our tag line" is very minimal if any. As far as the Bon Temps Roulez line, my first thought was, "Oh, they must be from Louisiana too", but you guys are from NJ. If that thought comes from maybe a great time in New Orleans or if you're from the area, then if anyone asked, then you would have an explanation. But it's a great saying so if you are feeling it, then go for it! One thing I would just absolutely suggest is that you make sure the tag line has proper spelling and punctuation. To me, that's a big turn off. While of course typo's do happen, just make sure that you take the time to check that! And then, as, of course, as we would say down here in South Louisiana....Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez!!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post
JustAskJulie 2,597 Posted January 8, 2009 I think the best ones are ones that catch attention when you are searching for couples. The problem I have is that often I don't even notice the tagline... this is especially a problem when people change their tagline to say they are taking a break. I'll read the profile and it won't say anything to the affect, then after I send the message I notice the tagline and feel like an idiot. I've found that the taglines that have worked the best for us, are when we use our tagline to say where we will be "Hope to see you at XYZ Social on January 10". Then again it may not have anything to do with the tagline but more to do with the fact that we are signed up for that social. I think the updated tagline just shows that we are actually active and keeping our profile up to date. The key there is to remember to update it, so it's not still showing that date a month later (which reminds me, I need to go check that on ours). Quote Share this post Link to post
twoforone100 45 Posted January 8, 2009 We change it from time to time.. some times it is seasonal... the holidays or something that is current.. one we stole from someone is " nice shoes wanna fuck" we still get people coming up to us saying that at lifestyle events.. people remember it... Funny works but I am sure it turns some people off. Quote Share this post Link to post

MrkLin 393 Posted January 9, 2009 A friend of ours changes their profile almost daily, it seems. He's got a twisted sense of humor, and I find myself checking their profile every couple of days, just to see what he's come up with next. So far, my favorite tag line he's come with was, "Toothless man and hairy-chested woman seeking same..." As I said - he's one twisted puppy. It works though - they're a very popular couple...

Trace Ekies 187 Posted January 9, 2009 We haven't changed our profile except for an occasional pic in a year or two...I may need to consider an update. If I like a tagline one of my fellow posters is using can I steal it? I can recognized creativity, I just don't have any. Trace Quote Share this post Link to post

This link gave me lots of laughs last night, and after reading them I came to the conclusion that it really doesn't matter what you say. Quote Share this post Link to post
MrkLin 393 Posted January 9, 2009 I stand corrected. I misquoted the tag line above. I checked it again this morning, and it says, "Butt Ugly Man and Hairy Chested Woman Seek Same" Ok, I was close... Quote Share this post Link to post

Willing29 66 Posted January 9, 2009 I just changed ours to "Turning Moments into Memories". It might be too corny to leave but for now it's better than "Fun Loving Couple" which it used to say. Although as many have said it really doesn't matter unless it is really witty like lets fight or the hairy chested woman one. Both of which are funny. Quote Share this post Link to post
SW_PA_Couple 4,027 Posted January 10, 2009 I saw one once that said, "Taking a break. Oh, wait. Break's over. Who's ready for mind-blowing sex?". Quote Share this post Link to post

toycple 19 Posted January 20, 2009 The one we tend to keep is "We put the FUN in dysFUNctional", corny but memorable. Quote Share this post Link to post
pants_1 27 Posted January 22, 2009 One that we have used to catch peoples eye, but just because I am a joker at heart: If size really doesn't matter why do women keep buying SUV's? I always wanted to do a series of spoof magazine adds for an SUV, the Mercedes Benz Kompensator: "Kompensator: tired of fitting in?" "Kompensator: size DOES matter." "Kompensator: for that little something extra." "Kompensator: for the man who has almost everything." Quote Share this post Link to post

"Kompensator: size DOES matter." "Kompensator: for that little something extra." "Kompensator: for the man who has almost everything." Remember - it's mostly women who drive these larger SUVs, so you have to gear the advertising toward them... "Kompensator: Because daddy never got you a pony for Christmas..." "Kompensator: What today's 48-year-old virgin drives..." "Kompensator: Your 63 cats can't eat all the food it'll haul..." "Kompensator: You don't have a pair of balls and you have to sit down to pee - deal with it by driving one of these big sumbitches..." "Kompensator: His attorney will shit a brick..." IT WAS A JOKE! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
