Wow! I met my future wife on the salon personals back in 2006. Her profile was on theonion and I guess they used to merge the profiles. I think there were like 30 profiles for my entire city back then! Went on a date and the rest is history.

Goodbye Salon! Thanks for the dating help!

This is exactly how my wife and I met! Same sentiment. We still read The Onion, at least

Oh yeah, I remember that. It was the same backend company running the dating for many sites.
