    I've drunk half a bottle of wine and installed tinder for a laugh

    Should I be applying for jobs? Yes. Am I? Get fucked

    For every profile that has a Machu Picchu or Ibiza photo, you have to chug

    I don't know if this is as much a thing for girls in the North of England but around here on the east coast of the US, I feel like I see a ton of the Cliffs of Moher as well

    My full list for PNW Tinder (the drinking game, bi-edition), drink if you see:
    • Pose with fish
    • Pose with BIPOC child while travelling
    • Pose with tiger/lion/other sedated wildlife
    • Pose with weapon
    • Bikini pose while walking away on a sandy beach
    • A Lambo/Porsche/other supercar you're inferring is yours but probably isn't
    • Selfie on Machu Picchu/other indigenous site
    • Selfie while blazing

    This doesn't even include rules for items within a profile's written bio.
    • Hiking
    • Football culture
    • Jesus/Christianity
    • Looking for a "unicorn"
    • The Office reference
    • Harry Potter house designation

    Dating me is like biting into a chocolate chip cookie, finding out it's oatmeal raisin, then realizing two hours later it's an edible.

    Other honorable mentions that I don't include else I would actually get alcohol poisoning: camo clothing, pictures of their truck, gym selfies where it's obvious they missed leg day, duck lips, and my personal favorite--the naked headless torso.

    The number of people that listed re-watching The Office as a hobby was baffling.

    Oh God duck lips yes.

    Especially when they have four photos with exactly the same pose to the point where they could have just photoshopped one image in four different backgrounds for the same effect

    I mean

    I think I'm quite an interesting person to talk to really

    And so maybe I'm what they want

    But if they put that in their profile they definitely aren't what I want i.e they're a dickhead

    Dating me is like an entry level job: god you don't really want it but your options are limited for the time being so you tough it out for about 6 months until you can figure something else out.

    Edit: then you steal all of the staplers and sharpies before you dip out.

    In my wife's extended circle of friends are the most vapid, pretentious and utterly boring people I have ever had the misfortune of meeting.

    Their social media games are (were?) very strong and it caused my wife a lot of angst. She would see the latest holidays snaps on insta and feel like we were wasting or lives away in comparison.

    I have been vindicated during this lockdown. Their personalities consisted of nothing else but drinking cocktails in expensive beach clubs, swanning about tourist traps in exotic locales, and name dropping D list celebrities. Now it's just them sitting around their parents' houses complaining that the travel restrictions are unfair

    help a fellow forumer meet their mental health care needs because USA healthcare sucks!

    Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better

    Because it evolves into Machu Pikachu.

    The one time I put a profile on a dating app the only photos were of me standing awkwardly in front of the closet mirror holding the phone up while deliberately excluding my head.

    Prime material right there.
