List of OkCupid Answers

OkCupid determines match rankings between its users by asking them a series of questions, and determining how they answer. These questions are randomly assigned, and can be answered whenever the user feels like it. The user can select a single answer for themselves, and multiple answers that he or she would be okay with potential matches picking.

Due to the tireless efforts of Clyde Cash we have obtained archives of many of Chris's answers submitted for his latest OkCupid Profile. Chris's answer, and answers he would like potential mates to select. As is the norm with Chris, the answers vary from completely Honest, to untrue things that Chris genuinely believes, to complete lies that he thinks girls want to hear.

Chris's personal answers are bolded, and answers he would like girls to pick are in italics. There is considerable overlap between the two.
