Chapter 2: How do missed connections reflect modern dating experiences?
Oh, wow. That must have impressed her. I mean, how could she say no to the Rubens King? Two reasons for that. One is because I always order Rubens. I assumed, yeah. Two, because, well, my real name is Ruben. Oh, that's cool. I'll let it slide. I know the second one isn't that impressive, but it is true. I could show you my birth certificate if my mom could ever find it.
what anyways i was just standing there babbling to you about everything and nothing when i almost forgot after you made my sandwich i asked if you could sprinkle a grocery store oatmeal packet inside What? Protein. Oatmeal? I love it when my Rubens have that brown sugar-dried oatmeal twist. Don't knock until you try it. Wouldn't that dry your mouth out? Don't question the king.
You're right, Jake. You looked at me weird, but you did it. If you see this, we should go out for dinner sometime. I know a great hot dog stand that lets you put anything on a glizzy. And I mean anything. Once you take the hot dog away, you can put anything you want on your hot dog. Make them do it. Make them. Can you make a hot dog into a Reuben? That signs the Reuben King. Of course, Jess.
What an honor. Sauerkraut boy. Let's go to your next Miss Connection titled, You Blew Me Away, Woman for Man 25 Bubble Festival. she says i was at bubble fest with some of my girlfriends last weekend and normally i would have been so upset that some snot nose shin kicker got a bubble wand stuck in my hair but it was all worth it when you came over to help
someone's going to bubble fest not expecting it to be all children right you call me down with your goofy face and rainbow colored mustache turns out you were a professional bubble blower i had no idea dude those people are so impressive though professional yes they like get hired for parties and stuff and they like they blow bubbles and bubbles and bubbles that's way cooler than the balloon animal yeah brooks definitely hooked up with a bubble bro
She goes on, with a few shakes of your wrist and a hair twirl that had me say, oh, lord, you freed the wand from my locks like a bomb technician diffusing a glitter grenade. You got the wand out of her hair. I thought you'd just walk away after saving me from my soapy doom, but nope, you stuck around, making giant bubbles that floated over the crowd like slow motion fireworks. Oh, that's nice.
Wow. You told me you'd been training for years, which sounded ridiculous, but then you made that square bubble inside another bubble, and I nearly fainted. I didn't catch your name, Bubble Man, but I definitely caught your vibe. If you remember the girl with the wand tangled in her hair who wouldn't stop laughing at your serious bubble artist face, Oh. That was me. Oh, yeah.
Write me back, because let's be real. We're basically married now in the eyes of the bubble gods. Oh. Oh, wow. That's signed Lisa. That's an interesting ceremony that the bubble gods have, it sounds like. Yeah, do you pop the bubble and say, I do? Yeah. How does the ceremony work? Just get the wand out of her hair. That's all you got to do.

Chapter 3: What is the story behind the 'Reuben King' missed connection?
Last weekend, I rented a horse-drawn carriage to take my fiancƩ and myself down Main Street to our favorite restaurant for our fifth anniversary. Why are you riding on Miss Connections if you have a fiancƩ?
Hear him out.
We're about to find out. Dot, dot, dot. I should really say ex-fiancƩ.
Oh, man.
Because that bee dumped me two days before. But we didn't want to lose the reservation. Oh, I see. So there I was, sitting in the carriage, begrudgingly waiting for her, trying to be strong and not cry. when all of a sudden you hopped into the seat next to me. Barefoot and I'm assuming homeless, you hissed, cops are right behind me.
Then grabbed the reins and somehow made the horse barrel down Main Street like we were starring in an action film. Wow. That's grand theft. Yeah, that is true. He continues, jeez. Oh. Wait, just then? And also that I kind of loved it. If you see this, let's skip the heists next time and just grab coffee. Still clipping along. Signed, Recently Single.
The cops never caught up with the horse carriage? Well, she's in jail, and that's why she's never going to respond. We love adventure.
Yeah.
Love adventure. Don't ask questions. Just accept love in all of its forms, Brooke. I can't wait until a movie's made after them. Oh, me too. Those are your Craigslist misconnections. We're going to do your phone tap coming up right after this. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
