NO NO NO, you want to set youself apart from all the other guys with the same type of ad!
be cocky and funny.
something like
about me: What about me? I'm awesome. I know I'm awesome, it's ok, you can admit it. I can't say I blame you, hell I wish I were like me... wait, I am like me... SELF HIGH FIVE *gives self high-five*. Intersest? I'm pretty interesting, if you don't agree, then this, you and I, isn't going to work.
I'm a selfish prick, so run away, little girl. Feel free to try to change me.
Who I'd like to meet:
Exotic people with a good sense of humor; don't bother messaging me if you're not a 11 (10's are not good enough for me). Unless of course, I took pity on you and message you first. Oh, and no stalkers please.
The way I see it is, everyone else's scale is 10, and that's just too common. When you go up to a 10. where can you go? nowhere but down. So I want that little extra push to put you over to 11.
Did I mention a good sense of humor?

You can probably audit them so they won't count for anything....and you'll have an excuse to be on campus...then just start hitting on every girl there and tell the college kids how much money you make. Have a ring ready and BAM you'll be set for marraige.
I've shagged/dated/whatever at least a couple dozen women from online sites. They're crazier than the garden variety "meet them at the supermarket type" but it's still a good place to hook up.
Scarpozzi: you must suck at the dating thing then...
iwearnosox: Why they don't shop at the supermarket? I have found it doesn't matter where you meet them...crazy is in their blood sometimes.
I will say very few are looking for 'mates' online...same difference with dating in general; most are looking for fun and excitement. Only someone desperate would go into a new relationship thinging ahead to a mate.
It's about practicing mating though.

Should I say, "Looking for a drinking parnter?" Or would that picture me as a drunk?
Here's my edited ad after taking in suggestions

There's even a website for online dating profile help.

Here is some more constructive criticism. Please don't take offense at any of it.
You should really say "athletic" build, rather than "slim," since it looks like you are athletic.
That picture looks kinda creepy. Get someone to take a pic of you outside, or take a timer shot. The obviously handheld self-photo just looks a little odd.
Since you have a rather unusual first name, I'd just say "B," or put in "I'll tell you later."
Put SOME other interests in there than computers/internet, even if that's where you spend much of your time. You want to come off like a Renaissance man, not a shut-in.
Since you make a pretty good income, I'd put it in, unless you are very private about that.
I'd suggest that, ironically, you'll get more responses if you're more specific in defining what you're looking for. I seriously doubt you really want to date someone 7'11", for example. Leaving everything that wide open comes off as a little desperate.
Most importantly, you really need more text, and something that shows some sense of humor. You need to convey that you're a fun person to be with, not just someone looking for companionship. Try to write something that makes you laugh, even if you're laughing at yourself. Fun is the key - you need to convey that dating you will be a blast.
