Leah is an HB6 I found on a site similar to OKC/PoF. She mentioned on her profile that she never knows what to write. Whole chat took about an hour. I responded slower than she did each time.
Me: If you want to fill in your profile, go to other peoples profiles and copy the bits that you like and customize to suit your personality. (Make sure to check your work though, my profile said I was Indian for at least a week!) Question; Do you like horses?
At the moment I'm trying Brad P's 'horse girl' opener, hence the question at the end.
HB6 (within 5 minutes of my message): Haha! That's cheating! Nooo horses are scary.
Me: You wouldn't have done very well a few hundred years ago then. The reason I ask is because when I was little I knew a girl who loved horses. She was crazy about them. She would run around the playground as a crazy horse-girl making neighing noises. One time she even had some coconuts just to make hoof noises. Anyway, I thought you looked a bit like her. Never mind I guess. Are you scared of horse-sized dogs too?
(I really had no idea what to follow up the horse opener with because her profile was seriously barren)
HB6: It does sound like something I would do though... [She's disqualifying herself, I didn't notice this until just now, not sure what I would have changed] Horse sized dogs? :O Never seen one but it would be my best friend!!
Me: Would you be scared of a dog-sized horse? A Shetland pony perhaps?
HB6: No I wouldn't. And what is that? [She doesn't know what a Shetland pony is!?] I can imagine a horse-sized Husky.. :O adorable! [Very good, she's giving me something to work with now!]
Me: A giant husky would be perfectly awesome. My only worry is how much bloody meat you would have to feed thing. Imagine trying to stop it from humping your leg!! Do you have a dog yourself? [Something of a comfort question, and a small amount of investment].
HB6: Let it run loose in the neighbourhood and eat all the hoodlems running the streets late at night. No I don't have a dog as of yet, I would love to get one though. [I considered doing a role-play fake marriage here, but it seemed risky because of the inability to seem sarcastic through text].
Me: I moved into a new place recently and I definitely regret not getting a pet-friendly place [DHV, I'm 22 and she's 21, not living with parents is important]. So are you working or studying? (Or both/neither?) [Qualifying question].
HB6: Neither. [She fails the qualification, I make sure not to put her on a pedestal so I neg her]
Me: So you're one of those hoodlums who runs the streets late at night! If we're going to be friends [Disqualifying her] I'm going need to get a giant husky, just in case. So, Hoodlum, what's the plan for the future?
HB6: Well, in my future years I'd like to be a renowned mechanic and open up a school for girls to learn building, automotive, engineering, etc etc without the pressure of males.
Me: Yikes, that's a lot of forethought... for a hoodlum [neg]. I have to go now. It's been a pleasure chatting with you. How can we make this happen again? [A phone number line I hear gets used a lot]
HB6: Be lazy bums and sit at a computer and speak via the world wide web? [THATS NOT A PHONE NUMBER SILLY GIRL!]
Me: Who says I'm a lazy bum?! Give me your phone number and I'll txt you when I need a hoodlum to chat with.

And that's all she wrote.
It's entirely possible that she just logged off, but I felt like posting this because it seemed like a very good convo by me.
If I don't get a response I'll give her the line "you get an F for responding to messages".
Let me know any comments or criticisms.
