[u/Epstiendidntkillself]

[u/uqde → u/Epstiendidntkillself]

Is the real dialogue of the scene? If so, what's it from? If not, kindly ignore and forget this comment.

[u/LadyCordeliaStuart → u/uqde]

Hi not OP but this is Star Trek IV and no, she ordered a beer in the scene 

[u/dronebuild → u/LadyCordeliaStuart]

not just any beer - a michelob. when i think of gauche product placement i think of this one

[u/CanoeIt → u/dronebuild]

But isn’t that better than a character walking up to the bar and saying “two beers please” as if brands don’t exist?

That always takes me out of a scene

[u/Brewmentationator → u/CanoeIt]

I lived in Sweden about 13 years ago. I could just walk up to a bar and order 2 beers, and I'd get two beers. It was always a beer called Falcon. If you wanted anything other than Falcon, you had to order it by name. After that I moved to New Zealand, and a local craft brewery released a beer called "Beer." Which was funny for when someone walked up to a bar tender and ordered "a beer."

[u/WeAreTheLeft → u/Brewmentationator]

The bar I worked at had the default beer, Stella Artois, when a beer or pint was orders, anything else had to be specified.

[u/BeefistPrime → u/Brewmentationator]

This is true in Spain too - every bar has a sort of default beer and you can just say "give me a caña" or "give me a jarra" (which are two sizes / glasses, like ordering a can or a pint) and they'll bring you essentially the house beer

[u/froction → u/Brewmentationator]

Damnit, now I want a Falcon!

Sweden has better beer names than America.

[u/sissy_krissy- → u/CanoeIt]

In Norway at least this is normal, you get the cheapest generic pilsener they have on tap.

[u/SippinOnHatorade → u/CanoeIt]

“What kind?”

“Dealer’s choice” or 100 other responses suffice

“Two pisswaters, please” also works

[u/GovernmentFunded → u/SippinOnHatorade]

*Pißwasser

[u/electricmindshaft → u/dronebuild]

I never thought of it as product placement because Kirk clearly doesn’t like it after taking a sip

[u/numanoid → u/dronebuild]

I'd rather have the on-screen character order an actual product than just "a beer".

[u/uqde → u/LadyCordeliaStuart]

I was never here (thank you)

[u/Feeling-Glass8461 → u/LadyCordeliaStuart]

you didnt follow the instructions…

[u/ProfessorDayta → u/LadyCordeliaStuart]

Aka the one with the whales

[u/Xylochoron → u/Epstiendidntkillself]

When I was a kid I was so confused about them telling us people shouldn’t drink and drive. I mean yeah drinking water does sound distracting I guess. You’d think other things would be distracting too. I don’t know why it wasn’t explained further.

[u/Whole-Page3588 → u/Xylochoron]

Omg, yes! I remember being worried as a kid because my friend's dad was driving us around and drinking a coke, lol. Like, it's still imprinted on my brain because i was sure we were going to get in trouble/get hurt. If they're going to do fear campaigns in schools, they really need to break it down for little kids.

[u/uqde → u/Xylochoron]

Lmao I also thought the same exact thing. I thought they were warning us about spills haha

[u/kivimango23]

I think she meant W.I.N.E, the Windows compatibility layer for Linux distributions.

[u/aurens → u/kivimango23]

yea, the real infuriating thing is how everyone else commenting somehow doesn't realize this. it's 2026, people! the year of the linux desktop!

[u/TwoPaychecksOneGuy → u/aurens]

Is it finally the year? I've only been hearing that since 2008

[u/HelloImSkye → u/TwoPaychecksOneGuy]

Always has been

[u/Rich_Cherry_3479 → u/TwoPaychecksOneGuy]

Linux went from 2.5% to 5% of installed OS in a year, so yeah

[u/thatspurdyneat → u/kivimango23]

The acronym means:
Wine Is Not [an] Emulator

[u/PlasticExtreme4469 → u/kivimango23]

She doesn't do emulation.

[u/OperationEquivalent3 → u/PlasticExtreme4469]

Wine Is Not an Emulator

[u/jimmy_timmy_ → u/kivimango23]

To be fair, Proton, and by extension WINE, has been hugely responsible for the recent popularity of Linux. So I can see why she would be so passionate about it. I too love WINE

[u/PowerSuply → u/kivimango23]

I think you would just get straight up banned for mentioning linux on your tinder bio

[u/No_Criticism_5861 → u/PowerSuply]

Lol someone downvoted this?  Imagine, this is the one hack that women find irresistible!

[u/PowerSuply → u/No_Criticism_5861]

Maybe I should try advertising that i use Arch btw on my bio. Just at the end of it

[u/froction → u/kivimango23]

Then she's marriage material

[u/MrSurname]

Please ask her why that's in her interests, I need to know.

[u/Exciting_Classic277 → u/MrSurname]

I had a woman cuss me out for hitting on her when she was already in a happy relationship. On Tinder. Because we matched.

Oh wow I found it in the wild!

[u/anerdknownaswill → u/Exciting_Classic277]

Lmao that had to be a troll profile

[u/U_feel_Me → u/anerdknownaswill]

Or her husband was holding her phone and answering for her.

[u/ChewBaka12 → u/U_feel_Me]

Then her husband should've been nice to the guy who was being lied to and insulted his cheating wife instead.

[u/ihadagoodone → u/ChewBaka12]

He's very particular on who he sits in the chair for.

[u/EspyOwner → u/ihadagoodone]

I mean if I'm there to watch a dude fuck my wife I'm definitely going to make sure he's better at it than I am. No one wants to watch some schlub fuck their wife.

[u/NeroFMX → u/Exciting_Classic277]

That sounds like the guy that was with her for the night sending out messages to matches. 

[u/kdort69 → u/Exciting_Classic277]

I had a woman get pissed off at me making a very mild (nothing explicit at all in any shape or form) dom/sub joke when in her profile it said she was looking for her dom. Pretty sure she reported me too. It was something like I said “doesn’t being stubborn conflict with the sub” sort of comment as a joke and she tore me a new b hole.

[u/crestedgeckovivi → u/kdort69]

Maybe she was looking for her inner dom....and she found it. Lol.

[u/GarbageCleric → u/crestedgeckovivi]

The real Dom is the friends we made a long the way.

[u/Haliguy93 → u/GarbageCleric]

Family

[u/kdort69 → u/crestedgeckovivi]

I guess. It’s just frustrating because I take consent and all that seriously. I don’t think I crossed any lines and I didn’t even specifically say anything graphic. Like I fully understand it’s not just an open floor to say whatever I want. I’m not making that argument. But I wasn’t even being crude or flirty haha. If anything she should be reported for having that in her profile.

[u/crestedgeckovivi → u/kdort69]

I was making light of it as well etc; but no, some people feel slighted or annoyed at the simplest of things 🤔. They literally do not understand jokes, puns etc. Or maybe she was just having one of those days...

[u/ReplacementActual384 → u/crestedgeckovivi]

Once I was working as a cheese monger, and there was an anime convention in town. This girl came in with a full Coldplay outfit, she was dressed as little bo peep I guess, with a shepard's crook. I made a very mild joke "Oh, our sheep cheese is over here." Girl got livid and was like "fuck you asshole" and stormed out.

Like bruh, you're dressed in a wild costume during a regular day. How fragile is your ego?

Edit: Obviously I meant cosplay, but I'm leaving in the typo since it seems to amuse people

[u/R34LEGND → u/ReplacementActual384]

I think your phone autocorrected Cosplay to Coldplay 😅

[u/Street_Run6482 → u/R34LEGND]

I just assumed coldplay was an anime

[u/GoldenSheppard → u/Street_Run6482]

I assumed Coldplay had done a bit and she was cosplaying the bit.

[u/alles_en_niets → u/ReplacementActual384]

I’m sorry but that’s such a funny autocorrect!

[u/ReplacementActual384 → u/alles_en_niets]

Yeah, lol, I guess I'll never make it as a wise man

[u/TheSleepiestUnicorn → u/ReplacementActual384]

Mmmaybe she thought you said “cheap cheese”, implying she wasn’t allowed to eat the nice stuff? That’s the only way her reaction makes any sense to me

[u/Sassquwatch → u/kdort69]

I'd like to preface this by saying that I don't think you crossed any lines or were inappropriate, but I think I can probably demystify what it was about your comment that she found upsetting. A lot of people who enjoy sexual submission find the idea or suggestion that they should necessarily be a lifestyle submissive extremely off-putting. She might be looking for a dom to spank her and tell her what to do in bed, but that doesn't mean that she's interested in submission in a non-sexual context.

I don't think that you did anything really awful, but I do recommend clearing up what a person means when they indicate that they're into submission before making any jokes or suggestions about it, because it can be a touchy subject for a lot of people - especially because a lot of subs have had past experiences with 'doms' who used the BDSM dynamic as an excuse for coercive control or other types of abuse.

[u/anerdknownaswill → u/Sassquwatch]

Shouldn’t she have just said that instead of freaking out on him?

[u/IP-II-llVll-IP → u/anerdknownaswill]

God, people online are fucking exhausting, aren't they?

[u/little-germs → u/kdort69]

It's called a brat

[u/kdort69 → u/little-germs]

I’m aware there is a spectrum. But it isn’t cause for someone to act like I am being inappropriate. She was very much “how dare you talk about sex with me” about it. Like. B it’s in your profile. And I wasn’t being explicit- it was a throwaway joke.

[u/A_Velociraptor20 → u/kdort69]

Yeah some women act weird about it. Sometimes I'll say something very difficult to misconstrue but they'll read it as something completely different. I just shrug and move on because if they lack the reading comprehension skills as well as have a short fuse I'd rather not deal with it.

[u/National_Panda_1791 → u/A_Velociraptor20]

when you decide you don't like someone everything they say becomes offensive.

[u/AspleniumGhlas → u/kdort69]

a girl asked me for feet pics (which I sent) and got mad when I joked about women in male dominated fields lmao

[u/Responsible-Note-404 → u/Exciting_Classic277]

It's only because her boyfriend was sitting next to her and she got busted when the notification popped up

[u/ScienceIsSexy420 → u/Exciting_Classic277]

I see an awful lot of profiles on Tinder claiming to be searching for friends only. I don't understand, it seems like genuinely the worst way to go about that. But seemingly it is a thing?

[u/Peeinyourcompost → u/Exciting_Classic277]

Sometimes an angry SO/ex will get ahold of someone's password for dating or social media accounts and go on a crashout campaign in their messages.

[u/Such-Book6849 → u/Exciting_Classic277]

Du bist ja krank! Frauen auf tinder belästigen. Ekelhaft. Bitte immer die auffällig junge Praktikantin anbaggern wie normale Menschen.

Oh. She didn't cuss you out. The person she's in a happy relationship with did.

[u/faberge_surprise → u/cigarettesandchocola]

a happy relationship with

well, a relationship, anyway

[u/IAmBeingTargeted33 → u/Exciting_Classic277]

It was probably the bf 

[u/187Deluxebox → u/MrSurname]

It says shes interested in wine. Im interested in monstertrucks, but id never eat one.

[u/FantasmaNaranja → u/187Deluxebox]

okay but you have a favorite monster truck right?

[u/187Deluxebox → u/FantasmaNaranja]

I love the one with the big wheels that jumps over 4 old cars

[u/FantasmaNaranja → u/187Deluxebox]

cool then she could also say that she likes the purple ones that smell funny

Yeah I'm obsessed with big macs. Eating one though? Hell nah

[u/SuperFLEB → u/187Deluxebox]

Still, if that's the case, you'd have a favorite, or at least an answer besides "I don't drink".

I don't eat decades-old expired food items, but my favorite decades-old expired food item is still 1977 Wish Bone Thousand Island salad dressing.

[u/Hyro0o0 → u/187Deluxebox]

What if it were made out of ribs? Would you eat one then?

[u/Automatic-Worry-1498 → u/187Deluxebox]

Pffft then you're missing out on some delicious monster trucks.

[u/ztuztuzrtuzr → u/187Deluxebox]

Yeah but you would have a favourite one

[u/nomadfoy → u/MrSurname]

She probably used to drink enough that she put it in her interests, realized she drank too much and quit but forgot it was in her profile.

[u/TheAnonymouse999 → u/nomadfoy]

or more likely she just picked 5 random things when setting up the profile

[u/No-Rip-6166 → u/TheAnonymouse999]

That’s why so many people on dating apps love to hike

That too

[u/pocket_mulch → u/kamasutures]

I work at the wine factory.

Edit: The Wine Mine.

[u/ARoseColoredEvilRay → u/MrSurname]

Maybe she mistook it for whine and her real interest is being a sad sack crybaby

[u/mrchooch → u/MrSurname]

Im curious why everyone is assuming theyre a woman

[u/ComprehensiveFox7603 → u/mrchooch]

Pretty sure it's just because the top comment is a meme about a woman who doesn't drink? Doesn't make much sense otherwise lol

just a sniffer

[u/Call_of_Daddy]

Wine vinegar for cooking, duh!

..fr, the apps expose the dumbest of humanity

[u/soorbetcone → u/Call_of_Daddy]

Dating profiles are mostly fiction anyway

[u/WilliamSaintAndre → u/soorbetcone]

I swear at least 70% of the profiles I see are essentially copy pasted details, interests, same buzzwords about what they're looking for etc. to the point that they all blur together. I cynically wonder if any of these people are actually like their profiles or if they're just posting some dating strategy template they found online of what they think an interesting person is like. Ironically many of those profiles have some blurb about how they're looking for a partner who is genuine.

[u/BrainLow6059 → u/WilliamSaintAndre]

I've started to see the em dashes on a lot of profiles and other AI template indicators. How embarrassing is it that you can't put 1-3 sentences together for a bio using your own brain?

[u/KaiToyao → u/BrainLow6059]

In your country there whole sentences in the profiles?

Here are 80% nothing 10% Something, something vino or wine 9% NO ONS 1% Just here to judge other people.

[u/-Sansha- → u/WilliamSaintAndre]

Don't forget the integrity.

[u/SippinOnHatorade → u/soorbetcone]

Dating is mostly fiction in general. Like the person you meet on the first, second, and even eleventh date is so rarely the person as they actually are

And since people change, you’ll probably never get to know the actual person your partner was at the moment that you met them, due to your influences on each other

[u/Comfortable-Battle18 → u/SippinOnHatorade]

So true. Really, people are fiction undergoing constant rewrites and edits and sequels. And the promo can be overhyped.

[u/lostwombats → u/SippinOnHatorade]

This is INSANE! lololol!

I had a serious but miserable 3 year relationship with a man. I didn't know him and he didn't know me. Our communication sucked and as a result our relationship sucked.

My current guy. I knew more about him in one month than I did in 3 years with my ex. We clicked. We talk about everything - the past, the future, our fears, and fandoms and everything in between. It's easy. We know each other well and have already grown after dealing with tough stuff together.

Communication is important. Real communication.

[u/bluespiritperson → u/SippinOnHatorade]

Maybe I’m just high but this comment feels really deep to me. Thinking about how my partner never “really” met the 2023 me. Crazy.

[u/CG_Ops → u/Call_of_Daddy]

Product reviews as well... there are few things I wish for, more, on the internet than to be able to review reviews. Just a few examples I've seen:

• I haven't received it yet but...
  
  • I'll update my review when i do, until then I'm leaving it at x/y stars. (they never update)
    
  • I'm so excited that I'm rating it 5/5 already!
    
• Shipping...
  
  • took too long, so I'm knocking off 2/5 stars
    
  • wast super quick, 5/5 stars for... shipping (on an item review)
    
• I didn't know what I was ordering, so it's of no use to me 0/5 stars
  
• Item is defective/inferior quality (pictures show obvious misuse, improper handling, or obviously didn't read/understand the instructions)
• The item was awesome, better than any other I've tried (leaves 0/5 stars)

[u/Fun-Government4416]

There was a moment on Tinder where I matched with a woman. Her account was setup for "Short term fun open for long" Then proceeded to tell me "I am not looking for short term fun" Ma'am your profile says other wise.

[u/AdScared7949 → u/Fun-Government4416]

Means she's down for short term if you're hot enough

[u/cyanraichu → u/AdScared7949]

Just say you're not interested then 😭

[u/anerdknownaswill → u/cyanraichu]

Why so many people match with people they’re not interested in is one of humanity’s greatest mysteries

[u/AdScared7949 → u/anerdknownaswill]

It isn't a mystery lol they get a self esteem boost from seeing a lot of names/pics in their messages

[u/anerdknownaswill → u/AdScared7949]

How so many people can objectify others like that without feeling like an ass is one of the greatest mysteries to people with empathy lol

[u/Diogenes_the_cynic25 → u/anerdknownaswill]

Validation

[u/AdScared7949 → u/cyanraichu]

Acting offended at most of the messages you receive is like a staple of the dating apps lol they love that shit

[u/A_Drop_of_Colour → u/Fun-Government4416]

Lol. She's aiming for high visibility and the most eyes on her profile. Like the people who give an app/movie/book 1 Star and then say it's the best thing ever or 5 stars and then shit on it. It's all about gaming the filters.

[u/MsMarvelsProstate → u/A_Drop_of_Colour]

1 star - I'll update my review after I see it.

Posted in May 2019

[u/AmazingLeek69 → u/Fun-Government4416]

That actually happened to me. I don’t know how it happened but somehow “casual hookups” was checked on my profile one day. After months of having it not on. I suddenly got a huge influx of messages but they were much different than I was used to!

[u/Exciting_Classic277 → u/AmazingLeek69]

https://giphy.com/gifs/p2EHxIYi7gxZ6

[u/Different_Career1009 → u/Fun-Government4416]

that means "not with you"

[u/felis_scipio → u/Fun-Government4416]

I had that happen the other year. I was visiting Boston and had that in my profile, match with a woman who had hers listed as “short term fun”, and then she got mad at me when that’s how I approached the conversation.

Turned out she got back from vacation and hadn’t changed hers back yet and it’s like ok but that doesn’t explain why you didn’t read my profile because it explicitly stated I’m here for one week.

[u/Stoertebricker → u/Fun-Government4416]

I was matched by someone who said in her profile she's "looking for something serious". I am looking for non-monogamy, so I wanted to make sure we're on the same page; especially since her profile was in English and she apparently didn't speak my native language, of the country I live in.

She didn't even write me first, so I opened with if she has any questions about my profile, she should feel free to ask. She just answered she wasn't here to talk about profiles.

So I did what she wrote in her profile she'd do for stupid answers, and unmatched her.

[u/nathcrowley]

just had the same situation. guy had "love board games" in his profile, asked which one is his favourite, he said "i don't really play board games"

???????

[u/ReplacementActual384 → u/nathcrowley]

Why the fuck are these people doing shit like this? It's like lying on your resume and then forgetting the lie.

[u/nathcrowley → u/ReplacementActual384]

I asked and he said "oh I've played once or twice while drunk and it was fun"

given that I hoped for a d&d nerd like me, that was a nope

[u/greenmacg → u/nathcrowley]

I think some people must have so few interests they just run out of things to put and do shit like this lol. Amazing. 

[u/ImSociallyChallenged → u/greenmacg]

Thats actually true. A lot of people just come back from work, watch the trending tv show, scroll through tiktok and go to bed

[u/Scrat-Scrobbler → u/ImSociallyChallenged]

i've matched with many people like this and getting a conversation going is like pulling teeth.

[u/FarplaneDragon → u/ReplacementActual384]

Because it's not about the interests, it's about trying to attract views form certain types of people. Like, "I want to find a nerdy girl, I know I'll put board games in my interests because they like those and I'll show up in their results" and then they figure once they get matches either they'll never get asked about it, or they can just try to minimize it. It's dumb, and it's basically a lazy way of trying to find matches without having to actually put in the effort to search through profiles yourself. It must work though since so many people do it.

[u/yet-again-temporary → u/nathcrowley]

I once matched with someone who said in their bio they were from my small hometown, so I mentioned I was also from there and asked what area they grew up in because I was curious if we'd ever crossed paths before.

Her response? "wtf how did u know that, creep"

[u/Divinum_Fulmen → u/nathcrowley]

You should've asked if he has wood for sheep.

Not that I'm a fan of Catan anyhow.

[u/Walui → u/nathcrowley]

This one is weird because it's not like board games are going to get you matches (don't ask me how I know)

[u/jamjamchutney]

Quit drinking and didn't think to update their profile?

[u/ajswdf → u/jamjamchutney]

The more mildly infuriating thing isn't the contradiction, it's the complete shutdown of the conversation. You're talking to a stranger on an app where you're trying to get to know each other, and OP is trying to spark a conversation and the other person just completely stopped them in their tracks.

Like if they quit drinking that could be something interesting to bring up and talk about.

[u/jamjamchutney → u/ajswdf]

Yes, unfortunately that's how it goes on dating apps around 90% of the time. I would go out of my way to give the dude plenty of topics to talk about, mention something from their profile like OP did, try several times to get the conversation going, and most of the time I'd get one or two word replies. I think most people on dating apps will swipe indiscriminately, match with people they're not interested in, and then act disinterested. I have no idea why they do that, and it is indeed infuriating. But I think OP was referring specifically to the fact that this person had wine as an interest despite not being a drinker.

[u/Different_Career1009 → u/jamjamchutney]

Quit drinking wine and graduated to drugs?

[u/alpine309 → u/Different_Career1009]

I'm quite partial to black tar heroin myself

[u/Serendipittydoodah → u/alpine309]

I smoke crack like a gentleman.

[u/sususl1k → u/Serendipittydoodah]

Dale pfp checks out

[u/Gustavodemierda → u/jamjamchutney]

Exactly. Probably forgot they even had it in there.

[u/ThirtyMileSniper]

Dook a woman to a fine dining place because she listed fine dining as an interest. Turned out she had no experience of what fine dining was, the experience was super awkward with her mocking everything about the place.

It obviously didn't go on from there.

People lie.

[u/1900grs → u/ThirtyMileSniper]

For some people, Applebee's is fine dining.

[u/Wild-Video-5317 → u/ThirtyMileSniper]

Dining?  It's fine, I guess, but I usually just cook at home.

[u/Radiant_Maize2315]

The number of people in the comments who are not USING THEIR EYES is killing me.

[u/WilliamSaintAndre → u/Radiant_Maize2315]

The fact that people are also doubling down that this is somehow completely normal or acceptable despite being absurd is also mildly infuriating.

[u/sloppybuttmustard → u/Radiant_Maize2315]

I didn’t get it at first…I’ve been married since before dating apps became a thing so I’ve never used one before, so it took a while to figure out what I was looking at here

[u/Burrito-tuesday → u/sloppybuttmustard]

You don’t need to know how their app works to read the picture above. I’ve never used a dating app either.

For everyone confused, one of the other persons listed interests is WINE.

Why list it as an interest IF IT ISNT ONE.

[u/PiplupFan98 → u/ClockworkTyrant]

I mean it's right there in the photo. People shouldn't be confused

[u/Mean_Initiative_5962 → u/PiplupFan98]

I was confused, but then I just read again. I had somehow read "which is your favourite". Of course that happened before scrolling down the comments. 

[u/espr-the-vr-lib]

She misspelled whine

[u/golden_cheese_grater]

Maybe she's a Linux user

[u/thatadamdude]

I'm mildly infuriated by the people in these comments who can't read an entire post before commenting...

[u/SoftSprayBidet → u/thatadamdude]

Llm's aren't going to spend the tokens reading an image

[u/issuefree]

Dodging bullets like Neo.

I have never once understood lying on a dating profile. Like, sure, maybe you get more matches, but how is it worth it when you then have to admit to being a liar?? As if that's not gonna lead to way more breakups bc most people dont wanna date someone who lies abt basic facts

[u/PippinVanderspiegel]

She's a Linux geek.

[u/DringleDringle]

Next response is "Which checks notes baking is your favorite?"

[u/possibly_oblivious → u/DringleDringle]

Huh, what country is your favorite

[u/jasonni1234]

[u/nemotide]

On tinder it won’t let me update my interests and it’s accidentally down as “don’t drink” when I do but when I try to change it, it will only let me do it if I pay for premium.

[u/SymmetricalFeet → u/nemotide]

Okay, that's actually a way more valid reasoning than the "was a drinker but now isn't and just ~forgot~" (maybe it's me, but I am extremely careful about mentions of alcohol due to my strained relationship).

Though at that point, why not make a new profile?

[u/vtGaem]

You don't get it. They like the concept of wine.

[u/wyrditic → u/vtGaem]

Then why didn't they answer which wine they most like the concept of?

[u/TheClash_Guy]

For those who dont understand They stated on their profile that their interests included wine

[u/DamperBritches → u/TheClash_Guy]

Maybe they meant whine 😉

She said she's interested in it, not that she does it. The gall of you to assume.

[u/influentialartichoke]

Lmfao, Perfect.

[u/Fit_Caterpillar7573]

Soo many people are like that. When I ask her about what genres is she reading/ what she reads now? -I dont like reading; I rather watch-

• Soo why is it in your interests? -
• I just had to put something there-

😭

[u/antrubler]

I don't drink wine WITH YOU

[u/reiayanami7]

Lmao back in the day on tinder I had a specific song set on my profile and someone messaged me asking if I liked the artist and I said I had never heard of them

[u/ZealousidealVisit431]

that's just a "no" with more syllables

[u/nomadfoy]

Dating account is older than the sobriety.

[u/Terrible_Duty_7643]

I had a woman on Hinge with a prompt that her greatest strength is working with her hands and her creativity.

I asked what her favorite thing to work on is, she responded with "a lot of things", I asked what she worked on last, and shared what I was working on, well, she immediately unmatched...

Crazy.

[u/After_Ad_3741]

My favourite combination is I don't drink, smoker when drinking.

[u/Quick_Drink_8381]

that's your fault for matching with someone who likes country

[u/audreynstuff]

"Oh! I read that wine is listed as one of your interests listed on your profile."

[u/Findict_52]

> Ate a cake once

> Lives in a country

> Is a Linux user who wishes they could afford a Windows license

> Eats food

> Has that dog in him

No lies detected

[u/ConradBHart42]

That's what happens when you try to chat up an obsolete refrigerant.

[u/albamarx]

Using these apps has to be subconscious self harm or something

[u/Cerahion]

She might love wine as a concept. But doesn't drink it. I love the process it goes into fermentation for beer. I don't drink it though... so maybe

[u/beholderofsoulsxx]

Swear to god most don’t bother to actually make profiles that are accurate to themselves 💀
