single and ready to mingle

Translation: I am ugly, broke, and have severe personality issues that drive potential dates/mates away.
Okay, I am only kidding.... just because someone says that he/she is "single and ready to mingle" does not necessarily mean that the person is undesirable. It's just that traditionally, most truly-attractive people have lots of OTHER folks approach THEM romantically, so one has to wonder why the person has to actually inform the world that he is "available and sociable". One should go ahead and befriend said individual, but just be a bit extra-wary of "red flags".

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
