Enjoy 10 of the Most Ridiculous Tinder Conversations Ever

Tinder was launched about nine years ago which means soon enough we’ll be marking a decade it’s been with us on this strange little planet and still I can’t quite grasp what it’s all about, or how to navigate it.

Sometimes it seems like a nice way to meet people, other times it handles like a straight-up hookup machine, and still other times it feels like some sort of game to just see who can have the weirdest conversation.

We’re dealing with that last category with this collection of convos.

10. Megan

Oh how the turntables…

9. In the bag

I thought this was an elaborate setup for some sort of wordplay, but nope.

8. Pickup lines

“It’s a match! She already hates you!”

7. Cat’s out of the bag

The man is a master negotiator.

6. So happy

Why are you trying to screw this up, my man?

5. You win

And everybody told ME that my “dumb improv classes” would “make nobody want to date me.”

4. The fun suck

How dare you ruin this for me.

3. The doctor is in

I also find that confusing. Like…what am I supposed to do with this information? How does this influence my actions?

2. Updog

Sometimes the oldest jokes are the worst jokes.

1. Just plane wrong

Pull up, dude, pull up.

Love it or hate it, I think Tinder might be with us for quite a while longer.

What’s been your experience with online dating?

10 Times That Text Messages Went Hilariously Wrong

There’s a subreddit you should absolutely not visit unless you want to cringe yourself into such a condensed state that you actually become a black hole and devour the entire solar system. But you should really check it out…

It’s called r/sadcringe and it is what it sounds like; user submitted cringe content that is sad. That said, it’s also frequently really funny, as evidenced by some of the better text exchanges that get regularly get added to the gallery of failure.

Check out these 10 examples of conversations that that did NOT go well.

10. Ready, aim, fired

This is the most compelling short story of a generation.

Yea just got fired no big deal. Wanna hangout though from sadcringe

9. *sweats A LOT*

Anime is not real life, my guy.

*cringe nervously* from sadcringe

8. What a twist!

Your deductive powers know no bounds.

Damn feels bad. from sadcringe

7. For not your eyes only

…what exactly are you trying to pull off here and how did you fail at it so hard?

Yikes from sadcringe

6. Glub glub

Come on friend, there are other fish in the sea.

Smooth Operator from sadcringe

5. Stonks are down

These are the wonders modern technology has brought us.

Found on reddit. Thought it belonged here from sadcringe

4. Hell-no

Even if I wanted to talk to this person I wouldn’t because this is too entertaining.

Persistence is the key to success from sadcringe

3. Man hunt

I’m not sure this is the most efficient way to go about that.

F from sadcringe

2. Night of the living dead

Yeah generally texting random numbers isn’t cute.

Oops from sadcringe

1. Trust issues

I feel like I know what’s going to be the first topic of discussion at that session.

Oh boy from sadcringe

Looking at how terrible all those conversations went makes me feel slightly better about the fact that I work from home and don’t talk to people enough. Obviously, talking to people is dangerous. That’s the lesson here, for sure.

What’s the worst text exchange you’ve ever had?

Make us cringe in the comments.

You Should Probably Know What These Text Abbreviations Are by Now

A lot of us have been in this situation before: you get a text from a friend or family member and there’s an abbreviation in there that you’ve never seen before. You panic because you don’t want to look clueless or uncool and you act like you know what they’re talking about. Then the conversation takes a strange turn because you just couldn’t be honest and everyone’s day is ruined.

Okay, that may be a little dramatic, but you know what I mean.

I have many moments like this with my 12-year-old niece when I should just own up to the fact that I don’t know what the hell she’s talking about and I need her help because apparently I’m already a senior citizen. But I can’t lose face, so I play this dangerous little game.

So, let’s run down the must-know list of text abbreviations that you really should know by now.

Ready? Go!

1. TFW

“That feel/feeling when…” Okay, I have to admit I didn’t really know about this one until now. We are NOT off to a good start.

2. NBD

“No big deal.” A classic! Believe it or not, people actually used to SAY this to each other when human beings still spoke before smartphones were invented.

3. FOMO

“Fear of missing out.” This describes your friends who can’t miss any of the action. Ever. Even if it’s your Aunt Esther’s 90th birthday party.

4. ICYMI

“In case you missed it.” Simple. Elegant. To the point.

5. FWIW

“For what it’s worth.” Whatever follows this abbreviation might not be something you want to hear.

6. TBH

“To be honest.” Another timeless classic.

7. FTW

“For the win.” I thought this meant “f*ck the world” forever, but now I stand corrected.

8. IDK

“I don’t know.” But you should know this one, okay?

9. SMH

“Shaking my head.” As in, “you’re not gonna believe this and I’m very perplexed.”

10. TLDR

A staple on Reddit, this means “Too long, didn’t read.” Everyone’s in such a hurry these days…

11. IIRC

“If I recall correctly.” Full disclosure: I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen this one out in the wild before.”

12. IRL

“In real life.” A must-have in your texting arsenal.

13. SLAY

“Crushing it” or “killing it.” So not exactly an abbreviation, but important nonetheless.

14. Vaguebooking

Another one that’s not an abbreviation, but you need to know, okay? This term sums up when someone posts something random or vague on social media because they’re obviously looking for likes, comments, and attention. A good example would be “Please pray for me at this tough moment” with absolutely no context at all.

15. LMK

“Let me know.” A huge one! LMK when I should be there. LMK what time dinner is. Etc.

16. OMW

“On my way.” You’re always in a hurry, so you’re always gonna need it.

An Accidental Text to a Wrong Number Changed a Sick Boy’s Life

Wrong numbers are a part of life. Every so often you’ll either send something to the wrong number, or get something that was meant for someone else. Generally speaking, the whole matter is put to bed with a simple “Sorry, wrong number” message. Once in a blue moon, you might end up having a short conversation with the person at the other end.

But, one girl got literally the greatest response when she texted the wrong number about an opinion on a dress. Syd was trying to text a friend of hers while trying on a gorgeous dress in a store for her feedback because you know…

She sent two full-length photos to her “friend,” which, turned out to be a complete stranger.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Instead of getting no response, this husband answered Syd with a kind, genuine message indicating that his wife wasn’t home to ask, but he did ask his kids and they think she looks great.

Photo Credit: Twitter

He even sent a photo of 5/6 of his kids giving Syd a thumbs up.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Seriously, how can you not love this response? It’s a “restoring faith in humanity” kind of answer. There are still some kind/sweet people in this garbage world. Of course, the situation went viral on Twitter after Syd’s friend Mandi published it online.

After the tweet went viral and the husband’s children became “Twitter famous,” this dad responded that one of their children (who wasn’t pictured) is fighting Leukemia and is currently undergoing chemotherapy. Someone else posted the GoFundMe link that the family has set up to help their son.

And, Twitter raised over $1,000 to help this family.

The kind of pure you need, today and every day.

Teen Job Hunter Gets Ridiculously Mean-Spirited Rejection Text After an Interview

Looking for a job can be a full-time position in and of itself, and the interview process can be especially daunting. It’s important to remember, however, that professionalism in a job interview goes both ways – the employer needs to respect you as a person, and a rude interviewer can be a major red flag about working at that organization.

18-year-old Megan Dixon was on the job market and had recently interviewed with Miller and Carter Steakhouse, in hopes of gaining experience as a server. After the interview wrapped up, Dixon was told she’d be hearing from them in a few days.

But she actually heard from them within minutes of her leaving – via text – and to say the potential employer was being disrespectful is putting lipstick on a pig.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Dixon told the Sun:

“At the end of the interview, I asked when I would hear back. She told me it was never more than a few days and she had my email. But I got the texts a few seconds after leaving.

“I was shocked. The least she should have given me was some proper feedback.

“And the laughing face emoji was so unprofessional. It was a really bitchy thing to do.”

“Maybe because I’m 18 she thinks it’s OK not to be professional with me? I don’t know.”

Apparently, that text was meant for someone else internally.  Shantel Wesson, the assistant manager who interviewed Dixon, refused to comment but a Miller and Carter spokeswoman said:

“We can’t apologise enough to Megan.

“It was never our intention to be disrespectful or upset her in any way. The texts were sent in error and were intended for our manager, not the candidate.”

She also said this situation was being taken “extremely seriously” and is under investigation.

Which – good! Because how hurtful!

These 20 Women Muster Up the Courage to Ask out Their Crush…and Then Share the Responses

Recently, British relationship blogger Oloni encouraged her female readers to take the leap – ask out that guy (or girl) you’ve been crushing on forever.
