We have our opinions about online dating here at Lemondrop. But before we lived in this golden age of NSA Craigslist swinging, Skype setups and sexing up other people who have terrible taste in literature, you had to get your love on analog-style.

This utterly marvelous video-dating montage from Daily Motion brings us back to the heyday of video dating, when single women were forced to sit in a room and sift through men dressed like Vikings, rebuking "fatties" and "hamsters" (hurrr durrr?) and exhorting you to talk with them "deep into the night." Too bad all the studs are probably taken or dead by their own samurai swords at this point. Born too late, we guess! Click to enjoy! (Thanks for the tip, Schmitten Kitten!)
