Will a clean fridge get you laid?
Jesse Brown, a BoingBoing guest blogger, is the host of TVO's Search Engine podcast.
My friend Corey Mintz is so proud of his well-stocked, spotless refrigerator that he sends pictures of its interior to girls he's wooing and has used it in place of a headshot on his online dating profile (high-rez link).
Now, this is no ordinary fridge- Corey is a chef and food writer (a good one, for the Toronto Star) so his fridge is filled with wonderful delights- top-notch doggie-bags, fancy mustards, homemade pickles and the occasional action figure. He obsessively packages and labels his sauces and glazes and eliminates any item at the first sight or smell of rottenness. He's actually indexed and published his fridge's contents (link).
But I still contend that a clean icebox does not a man make. Corey insists otherwise- he thinks these pics provoke the same response in women that nude shots inspire in men.
So ladies, I put the question to you: does this fridge turn you on?
