If the closest we come to professional perfection is when we write our resumes, the closest we come to living a perfect life is when we write these dating profiles.
Unless "camping" means "wild sex in the woods," nobody's into spending days in the middle of the great outdoors as much as they claim in their online personals page. It's physically impossible, and I can shenanigans on the entire thing.
I decided that "camping" had to mean something else in this context shortly after my first, psyche-bruising visit to my local Craigslist personals. I'm still particularly traumatized by the vast gulf between CL's definition of "casual encounters" and mine: Gauging the intensity of the posts, "casual" is not the word I would choose to describe the folks who use that forum.
Anyway, "camping" = "sex outdoors" would at least provide an acceptable origin for the euphemism "pitching a tent."
