(Reasons We're Probably Not) Dating Or In A Relationship Thread NSFW • Page 30

when i get asked "what are you looking for/why are you on tinder?", i kind of want to jump off of a 50 story building.

 

I got asked that recently. Never got asked it in Seattle. Anyway, they said it's because people just want hookups, or a tour guide if new to the city, etc. So I answered..."I kinda just wanna bang a bunch of people so my number is higher than my wifes tramp of a daughter..." Then there was a glitch in the app and i lost them somehow.

 

i get that and it is fair, but most people who are just looking to get laid usually lay it all on the table right away, this is generally (for me), a day or two (or longer) into the conversation.

 

i explicitly put it in my bio that i'm not there for a rando hookup... here's mine. i've been talking to a cute guy for the past few days, so i feel like i've been successful...

 

Mine just says "I don't fuck around 'cept for sometimes "

 

lol nice... do actually people read bios? I feel like I'm always re-reading my bio and changing it.

 

I've seen people who say they won't swipe right if you don't have a bio...seems dumb to me though. People are only gonna frame themselves in the best possible light. Might as well just have a conversation with them.

 

I was thinking that accounts with bios are less likely to be fake. Now that I think about it, it seems like it could go either way.

I saw one account that had pictures of someone from Youtube, who I'm pretty sure lives in Los Angeles, not AZ. That's what I mean by fake.

 

or someone who has "Student at Student" for school..

 

lol this is me. bios help me with the conversation starter, and if you don't have anything i think you're fake. i'm super paranoid about getting catfish'd for some reason.

 

I've had a TON of fake accounts like my account that had bios. I deleted the app because of all the fake accounts.

 

I have nothing in my bio. I like to think it makes me mysterious.

 

There's a special place in hell for catfishers.

 

within 5 minutes of starting an OKC account a bot will send you a message to text them because they are new in town. Usually the number will have the right area code and will have a picture, but that's it.

As a test i made / deleted about ten accounts in an hour and every single one got a spambot email to text them within minutes of the account starting. not sure how it works since they don't even view your account but the message is always the same, but the pic and username are not.

it's a weird world we live in.

 

your profile is ridiculous.

"let's talk about how ridiculous Limp Bizkit was."

WAS?!

That should be "is".

(face to indicate my post is just giving you hell)

 

KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN WHAT

Bizkit has some life great life lessons, whether you admit it or not.

 

i definitely agree. my main point is that they're just as ridiculous now as they ever were. it's not like they've calmed down or gone boring mainstream (i don't think but i only randomly watch their new videos and stuff on youtube from time to time).

 

Last time I used OKCupid, I specified that I did not want to date white people and it resulted in an inbox full of messages from those people. I did reactivate my account a while back and received an instantaneous message from a robot. though.

 

Whoa. I didn't even know that was an option. I've read some women's bios that say in there, "no white boyz only real men" or something like that so I'm guessing they didn't know there was an option to select either. Or the option is broken since I'm white as milk and was viewing said profile.

 

joke time: i once had a picture taken of me and someone said, "this photo is nothing but the glare from a light". No, that was me. That's how white I am.

*edit. fucking rim shot picture won't post.

 

i say 'was' because i'd like to forget that limp bizkit has happened. they're still making music???

 

Let me clarify. There is an option to only search for people of color, but I meant that, in my profile, I explicitly said something to the effect of "No crackers please. It is not personal, but I do not date white people. Also, I hate crackers."
The idea of crossing boundaries is an aphrodisiac for white folks, I suppose, so I received a bunch of messages after that.

 

Oh yes, I could see that.

I imagine the mentality is instantly either, "WHY THE HELL NOT?" or "I'LL SHOW HIM!"

 

Per Wikipedia: "The band started its 2015 activities with news: Stampede of the Disco Elephants is in the final stages of production, however as of 2016 no news has come of release of the album. A few days later, the band announced their major 2015 tour called "Money Sucks", a Russian 20-date tour to take place during October and November, celebrating the 20th anniversary of Limp Bizkit. The tour name is a nod to the difficult economic situation that Russia was facing at the time."

There is so much gold in that paragraph I can barely contain myself.

 

the perfunctoriness/bluntness of "i hate crackers" just made me laugh inappropriately loud in the office, love it
