Dating Sheep

In my work area I keep the 365 Stupidest Things Ever Said calendar. A new quote each day. Ones that often leave me saying Huh?

This coming Saturday (I like to think ahead) offers this quote, originally printed on stationery from a country having a dominant language other than English:

Happy Days of Young Sheep: I’m a sheep, young handsome sheep. They say every sheep looks like me very much. But look at them carefully. Their faces are a little bit difference. So I’m lonesome sheep. Would you date me?

I have to admit that the first thing I thought of when reading that was that, for me, the answer would definitely depend on the quality of the wool.
