Match.com Invites Users to Live Out Love Stories

Match.com swears if in six months you don’t live out a love story with someone from its site, you can have six more months of free service to make up for it.

Not all tell-worthy stories end happily though. Sometimes you get locked out or hosed — which, now that we think about it, isn’t nearly as bad a fate as this one.

Oh, but wait — now that we’ve wasted at least four minutes of your time, watch the TV spots too. Slogan: “It all started with a look.” You can probably predict the premises, but there’s nothing wrong with a well-done cliche.

“Dating” is probably our favorite because it does that nostalgic/vintage thing that made Vanilla Sky less of a suckfest. But the other spots are good too — “Vacation” invites an older demographic to come play, and “Baby” flashes back through the courting of a couple that’s just had a baby.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
