A friend of mine was to meet a man on a blind date, and the man sent her a PowerPoint presentation on himself beforehand.

There were about 30 photos of himself in the PowerPoint - including one in which he is wearing really short swimming shorts. He is middle-aged, has good muscles and money. He is investing in the United States in a bid to secure immigrant residency status.

The PowerPoint featured his own quotes, high-lighted throughout, in which he emphasized women's "ability to endure loneliness".
