2017 Year in Review

I thought it would be fun to do a year in review sort of post. Not that this is going to be anything fancy but it is just for fun. It is kind of crazy to think about the whirlwind that this year. Not just for the blog but for me personally. Not that I blogged all about it but maybe I will type it up one day. Either way I appreciate all of you for sticking with me this year because I know I did disappear for three months during the summer but you welcomed me back with open arms.

OkCupid - Hey Ho Part 2

Remember that guy who started a conversation with "Hey ho"? If you don't click here to refresh your memory on that one. Once you're caught up again come back to this. So, as I was saying at the end of that post the guy never responded. That seemed fair enough. He called me a name so I called him a name. He obviously couldn't handle it if he thought it was a joke or he just realized the error of his ways and decided to shut up. Strap yourselves in because it gets better, or at least better in the sense of more entertaining.

Peaky Blinders Season 4 Spoiler Free Review

I just had a thought to do this because I love Peaky Blinders and the newest season was recently released just in time for Christmas. I actually haven't seen much about it online, which is disappointing to me because it was truly amazing. So I decided to type up a spoiler free review for anyone who is possibly interested in watch. That means, if you are interested in watching you should definitely give it a chance. You won't regret it. I give it a 10/10, would recommend.

OkCupid - Snap Code

I am sure we have all experienced strangers giving out their Instagram handle on a dating app because they think it will be cool to have you follow them on there. I get that some people think it is a great way to learn about someone because they get to see more snapshots of their life. Trust me, I've checked out some of the Instagram accounts connected to dating profiles out of curiosity and learned enough to immediately swipe left. Some people really do know how to show off the worst things about them. It has been a true life saver though so I can't really complain. Now we're entering the age of Snapchat and that just becomes even more questionable. Especially when someone uses their snap code as their profile picture.

OkCupid - Hey Ho

Conversation starters aren't always easy. I've had the guy who thought that being a jar opener was an impressive introduction. Then I had the guy who actually had the fun idea about shopping and playing tetris because we were both tall. Today though we have someone who either doesn't know how to start a conversation or maybe just doesn't know how to be funny. I seriously can't understand why it has become so hard to start a conversation with a stranger. It seems like something that happens every day but apparently there are those who struggle with it and I do mean really struggle with it. Let me share with you what message I received today.

OkCupid - You Will Like It

We've had to talk about profiles plenty of times on this blog. We have those who share too much or share too little. Some just never seem to find the perfect amount of sharing just enough information to go off of. Today we have someone who really doesn't seem to grasp the idea of a self summary. It should be easy to list off some stats about yourself like your age, what you do for work, where you went to school, and what you enjoy doing. Let me show you what struggle I had to see today.

OkCupid - Sweat Emoji Love?

Remember how there was a movie all about emojis and how they had secret lives? I mean, I only remember it because of the commercial trailer but I never actually saw it. It was one giant advertisement for a bunch of apps that paid the most money. Either way emojis are becoming even more important on dating apps. That isn't to say that emojis are just now being used or anything like that but I'm starting to encounter them even more in first messages. Today I discovered that either I'm old or I just don't know what emojis mean.

JSwipe - Be Your Slave

Today I have a new dating app to talk to you about! I always knew that there were different religion based dating apps but I never thought much of them. That's mostly because I'm not super religious and if anything I worried that I'd get some super religious guy that I wouldn't really relate to. The last thing I want on a dating app is to have someone try to convert me to their beliefs. Or with the way the world is going I'd get some religious fanatic who would be just as crazy as most of the other guys I've talked to. In short JSwipe is set up like Tinder but the profiles are more geared to someone who is Jewish. It's all thanks to Becca that we have today's gem.

Tinder - I'm Harvey Weinstein

I get that in conversation people tend to talk about current events and what is going on. That makes total sense. Sometimes getting a feel about someone's interests with what is happening tells you a lot about a person. I know people who don't date someone just because of who they voted for in the election. I can't blame anyone for doing that because I'm pretty sure those differing beliefs wouldn't be beneficial in the long run. Now making a joke about what is currently happening in the world can be funny if it is done right. Today I believe we found someone who really doesn't understand how to turn any conversation into a joke.

Tinder - Tap To Remove

Today I stumbled across something truly amazing and it was on Tinder no less. I can't even begin to describe what lengths Jesse went to in order to achieve what he has created. Honestly, I wish I had thought to do this in a way just because it is so brilliant. After all this hype I've created you're ready to see what I'm talking about so let me show you how Jesse has changed the game on Tinder.

Tinder - Spank Doctor

Profile pictures are nothing new when it comes to the dating apps. People choose photos of themselves that best reflect who they are and what they like to do. That shouldn't be too hard. Usually the struggle comes from seeing dick pics or having to figure out who you're looking at because of a group photo. Today I came across a guy who I don't think knows what he is doing when it comes to choosing his profile pictures. Or if he does then I really don't know what he hopes to find.

Tinder - NO SALMON SHORTS!

We know that profiles can be truly difficult to fill out sometimes. It's been seen time and time again by those of you who read this blog considering I share them with you a lot of the time. I suppose some people will never learn. I can't fix stupid though. All I can do is share with you all the struggle I go through trying to use the dating apps to find someone.The gem today comes from Sarah who shows us that some people are just hypocrites who really don't have a clue.

Tinder - IKEA Night Stand

You know how sometimes you just happen upon a profile that isn't as terrible as you thought it would be? I'm reminded of that packaged deal that came up a while ago but I won't be forgetting that one anytime soon. I mean I have gotten to the point with the dating apps that I'm not on as often because the profiles have start to become repetitive. Same distasteful profile with a guy who isn't remotely attractive or interesting. Today we have someone who's profile I'm not sure what to make of. There's the funny parts but also the concerning parts. Let's get on to it shall we?

Blogger Recognition Award

Look! I got an award this time around and it's going to have me talk about this blog. It's fun to see all the different awards there are for bloggers because it's a great way learn more about the blogger and their blog. Sometimes you don't always get the backstory or want to know more. Now is your chance to learn a little bit more so I hope you enjoy.

OkCupid - A Sign of Insanity

Filling out a profile on a dating app is very important to most people. You can't just have one photo or no photo along with no info. That is completely and totally sketch. It does not make me want to find out more about you. Instead is does the opposite, it makes me want to completely avoid you. The profiles are pretty easy to fill out on most dating apps with super easy and quick questions. They can be filled out when you first sign up and then you don't have to worry about it again. Today we find someone with their profile not filled out might be insane from Sarah.

Thoughts on Las Vegas Shooting

If I'm being completely honest I've been putting off sitting down at my laptop. I've had a hard enough time dealing with the shooting with the barrage of messages on my phone and the constant news on tv. To blog about it just seems strange. With all going on though I that feel that I need to say something. None of this will be eloquent, instead it will be honest and from the heart along with some information on how to help.

Bellagio Fall Gardens 2017

This is my attempt to participate in Blogtober. No, I won't be posting every single day because that's just a little too much. Besides, my wifi is still on the fritz so I can't do much of anything. Instead I'm going to try and have a blog post every Wednesday and Sunday. If I'm luck I'll make it a habit thanks to Blogtober and it is something you can all expect each week! This post is all about the Bellagio flower garden this season. The hotel/casino always decorates for each season and now that fall is here they have really outdone themselves.

Plenty of Fish - Date Amnesia

I know that when you're swiping through on the apps you can get a sense of déjà vu because you feel like you've seen someone before and swiped all ready. I know I get that feeling but I figure that either the app is the one with the problem or the guy just rejoined after leaving for a while. That's no big deal because things happen. On some apps your conversation gets timed out so if an actual conversation happens after a match later that's fine. Today we have Todd who seems to have amnesia when it comes to going on dates with Ginger.

Plenty of Fish - Baby In You

Now if I'm being honest I haven't used Plenty of Fish. I suppose I should download it at some point just to give it a shot and a review but maybe later. I assume it is similar to most of the other apps I've used, which means same nonsense but a different name. Today we have a conversation that makes me once again question what goes on in a man's head. This guy thought he was being smart but Ginger shows us that men suck.

12 Summer Movies (Part 1)

As I mentioned before I did a bit of traveling this summer. I still need to make a Travel Tuesday post on all of them but I have so many pictures to sort through. Just give me time. Anyway while traveling there were lots of flights and plenty of airline movies to watch. There was time to kill so I figured why not watch as many as I could. So this is a post all about different summer movies you might have seen or might have missed out on!

OkCupid - Shat On It

Story telling is a great way to get to know someone. It's fun to get a glimpse into someone else's nature by the way they express themselves with a story. Even listening to the story that somehow gets decided upon can be funny because of what a person admits they want to leave out. Sure, some people just aren't very good at telling stories but that is their loss. It's something to work on. Today I present to you someone who could have been good at story telling, but still needs to work on properly ending the story.

May Ipsy Glam Bag Review

This is about four months late and I apologize for that. In my defense during the month of May things got hectic at work so I wasn't as focused on the blog or even what was coming in the mail. Instead I was worried about finishing everything up before getting ready for my trips out of the country. So today I present my review of my Ipsy Glam Bag from back in May.

OkCupid - Take It Back

Some people make a total u-turn in their conversations. I mean, they say one thing and then back track and try to say something else. It's different if someone changes their mind or opinion about something. That happens all the time as people learn and grow. For a guy to send the first message, be rejected, and then suddenly act like the girl is the problem is just sad. Today we have Sarah to thank for this but maybe there is some redemption for the guy.

Tinder - Tetris Grocery Shopping

I think it may have finally happened. I was seriously abut give up all hope that I would get a decent first message on Tinder. It's rare enough that I get an actual match with someone who doesn't just ghost me. I feel like I might be accidentally hyping up this first message a little too much but it's just so easy and simple. I don't get why people aren't able to say something similar to this. It's truly not that hard and the little things make a difference. I think I actually might meet up with this guy because we're having an actual conversation after his conversation starter. I'll keep you all posted of course but let's get to it.

Tinder - Poor Perfect Pen

I don't think I can justify many bios created by the guys on dating apps anymore. I truly don't understand why it is so hard to share interests or hobbies. It would seem guys write the first things that come to mind that they think make them attractive. As we've seen plenty of times before they are quite full of it and make fools of themselves. Feeling bad isn't even a reaction to it anymore, instead it's just a feeling of disappointment. I sound like a parent saying that don't I? Anyways, Sarah found our poor perfect pen today!

OkCupid - Trouble and You Know It

I know that when people see someone they make assumptions about them, especially if they've never even met them before. It happens and is to be expected. We're all human after all. We can call it our gut feeling or we can just admit we're judging based on what we see. What matters in the end though is whether or not we are willing to get to know the person no matter what our thoughts are about them. Today I had a guy make an assumption about me but it didn't go far.

Tinder - Jar Opener

It's gotten to the point that when a guy messages me on one of the dating apps he seriously just needs to say something along the lines of "Hey, what's up?" in order to get a response from me. I swear it isn't hard to do but men are unable to grasp such a concept. Instead they think they should be creative and witty, which can work in their favor if they actually are. Sadly in my experience most men are not creative and witty so instead we get dud messages like this one. This post is possible thanks to Paige for the screenshot. 

#ILiveItIBlogIt

If I'm being quite honest I didn't expect a DM from John on Twitter asking me how I was and then inviting me to participate in #ILiveItIBlogIt because I've been quite terrible on my blog as of late. I mean, I was on vacation so that's a good enough reason as far as I'm concerned. It was still nice to be invited to participate so let's get to it, yeah?

8 Things to Know Before Traveling to Cambodia

I traveled to the wonderful country of Cambodia this summer and visited Angkor Wat! I spent most of my time in Siem Reap, which is actually the 6th smallest city in the country, but I can't wait to return to explore even more. There's always more of a country to see than just one city or one major tourist destination. There was a lot to learn upon arrival so I thought I'd share a few things you should know before traveling to Cambodia, just to help your trip run a bit smoother.

Tinder - Skinhead

Today's post comes from 100dates and is sure to leave you as confused and concerned as I am. I believe we've discussed before about how tattoos aren't necessarily a turn off but in this case I do believe we've found someone who has become unattractive because of their tattoos. I get that a person can do as they please with their body, especially when it comes to body art. Who am I to tell someone what to get inked on their skin? However, there are some major red flags here today because of what you're about to see. Let's get to it.

8 Automatic Turn Offs: Dating App Edition

There are things we all consider turn offs when it comes to guys. From the dating apps it's easy to be turned off by the guy sending dick pics. I think that's something we can all agree on. Or even the guy who only has a bunch of group photos with him being the only guy surrounded by a bunch of girls. It is because of these turn offs that I decided to make a list of things that are an automatic turn off when it comes to guys on dating apps.

Let's Get To Know Each Other Blogger Tag!

I have been tagged! Emily at That Weird Girl Life tagged me for this and I am a few weeks late but I was a bit busy traveling the world so I hope all will be forgiven. I love being tagged in all the different tags going around but you've probably noticed I'm terrible about actually doing them. I promise I'll get better. Either way here's a fun way to get to know me a bit better. (:

OkCupid - Lick Every Hole

If you haven't noticed there hasn't been a new blog post as of late. I've been out of the country and I didn't really have a chance to use any of the dating apps. Not that it would have worked in my favor considering I was in Peru. Talk about a long distance relationship. Today's post is brought to you by the lovely Kelly. It seems that romance might not truly be dead since we have a guy today who is willing to be blunt in his first message! Now as to whether or not that actually will work we will have to find out.

Tinder - Love Eating

I need to know how it is decided by guys what they want to share on their dating app profile. Is there something in their brain that prevents some of them from understanding what is and isn't appropriate to share? I mean, I get that some guys want to share things to be up front and make sure that there aren't any hidden secrets immediately like Ricky. However, there seems to be a trend in guys not understanding there are some things to be shared later. This weeks post is brought to you by Sarah who joins me in suffering from dumb profiles on Tinder. Let's meet the man who loves eating.

Tinder - I Like Your Face

Today's post is all about the importance of messaging. When you send a message to someone you need to talk about something you might have in common or ask some questions. I don't think that sounds very hard but apparently it's hard to keep up the conversation after a question without becoming gross or inappropriate. One of my friend's sent me the following screenshot of her conversation with Mitchel. Let's get to it.

Blue Apron Experience

I am in no way, shape, or form a chef. Ask anyone who knows me and they will recite my favorite recipe. One giant bowl, one bag of cereal, one spoon, and one gallon of milk. A bowl of cereal is all I need to tide me over. Two weeks ago I had a friend send me a link to try Blue Apron for the first time free! I decided to try it out, because why not? It was free and easy to cancel if I didn't like it. I thought it'd be fun to share with all of you my experience cooking with Blue Apron.

Tinder - I'am in Pain

This post comes from Sarah who I can't thank her enough for both burning my eyes and enlightening me to some guys stupidity. As we all know grammar and spelling are important when both writing a dating app profile or sending messages. It shouldn't be too hard but apparently it is. Today we have Jon who has gone far too long without knowing very much.

OkCupid - Noncreative Creep

It's time for another round of what was the first message sent! A we've seen plenty of times before there are a lot of strange and random first messages that can't be unread. I've had my eyes scarred by plenty of messages and photos. I'll never get to take those back. Today we have a guy who sort of calls out the nonsense of the first message, but keep in mind when I say nonsense I mean the overanalyzing that takes place. Let's get to it.

OkCupid - Walking Contradiction

I'm still not sure why people list their social media such as Snapchat, Twitter, and Instagram on their dating profiles. It seems like a like a little too much sharing to me. I mean, those are platforms that you can easily find out way to much information from and in the wrong hands things could be terrible. Either way it's not my choice whether or not someone shares that. Today we have someone who has a profile that is a walking contradiction. That's using their own words to describe them, not my own. Let's get to it shall we? 

Tinder - Two Felonies

I get it, really I do. Being honest is very important. I care about it and so do a lot of other people, especially when it comes to dating apps. If you tell me that you're 6'6" and when I meet you I discover you're 5'2" I'm over it and going to walk away. I don't need a liar in my life. There are little white lies and then there are full blown lies. If I could only avoid one it would be the full blown lies. Some people however don't seem to get oversharing, or at least what I consider to be oversharing. We haven't even met yet and this guy is telling us way too much information. I have to give a shoutout to Sarah who shared this and made this post possible. Having someone to talk to about the dating apps always makes it a little easier. Anyways, let's get to it.

April Ipsy Glam Bag

As I mentioned before I have another Ipsy Glam Bag to share with all of you! It is now officially a month late although technically from the time I received it only a few weeks have passed. Either way April's bag proved to be quite interesting from email warnings from Ipsy to trying to comprehend how dumb some people are. Let's get to the bag shall we?

Tinder - You Own Mortality

As I'm sure we all know by now I've come across a many different kinds of dating app profiles. The funny ones, the serious ones, the creepy ones, and the ones that have potentially scarred me for the rest of my life (I'm looking at you Johnny). Either way it's rare that I have to pull out the dictionary for one to make sure I'm fully understanding what in the world they are trying to say to me, let alone one that makes me question my mortality. Let's get on to the confusion of mortality from Ryder's point of view.

March Ipsy Glam Bag

This is so very late, which I must apologize for, but alas life got busy and I just can't help it. I could lie and say it took me a while to use the products but I'd rather not lie. Sometimes for me the dating posts are easier to keep up with compared to the beauty ones. So expect two glam bag posts this month because I still have the April one to post about. Let's get on to the wonderful March bag! (:

Bumble - Girls With Daddy

I get it, filling out profiles on a dating app can be hard. Sometimes you aren't sure what to share in order to convey who you are and what you are all about. Last week we had the pathological liar who was easy to figure out but this week is a little more confusing. There's a fine line between being funny and being serious that is hard to tread when it comes to having someone read it. Talking in person would be a bit easier considering there is tone and expression to work with. Today I have Ryan who slowly falls off the line and into a pit.

Coffee Meets Bagel - Pathological Liar

It's easy to make things up when talking about yourself to a stranger. I mean, what do they really know about you? Nothing. You're the one who has to fill them in about yourself. You get to decide what information you share about yourself and what you don't. It isn't likely that you are going to start off telling one of your most embarrassing stories or with terrible things that you've done in your life. Instead you're going to start off nice and easy with topics like what you do for work, where you went to school, and what you like to do. However, what do you do when the profile on a dating app starts becoming less and less believable?

Influenster - Maybelline #GreatLashBlue

It's been a while since I received my last Influenster box but I just received a new one today! This time it was Maybelline's #GreatLashBlue campaign that was sent to me. I actually ended up with it thanks to taking one of their surveys on the site. It's one of those easy ones where I answer questions about what products I enjoy using. There's always different opportunities depending on what you review and show interest in. So, let's get to it!

OkCupid - Beyoncé Review

I've started noticing a new trend as of late on the dating apps. No, it isn't the previously discussed people in costume concept (Barney, Kermit, Minnie) which took my dating apps by storm. Instead it is people using quotes to describe themselves. Don't get me wrong, I understand having a quote from a well known person if you're trying to be deep or philosophical. However, making up your own quote to try and describe yourself isn't something that is attractive. Today we have a guy who thought Beyoncé could save him.

Tinder - Show Me Bagina

Time for me to share another one of the dating app conversations that I've been given by a friend. As you know sometimes my friend's have even weirder conversations than myself. Who would have thought that possible? Well it is. It's as if guys are constantly trying to one up each other in a contest for the glory of saying something stupid and weird. If this is a contest you're taking part of with your friends let me know how its going.

OkCupid - My Girlfriend Drinks

I get that there are many different types of relationships. There are people who have one partner or more than one. Kudos to them. They are more than welcome to do what they are comfortable with. I, however, am more comfortable with a monogamous relationship. As I've said before to each their own. On the dating apps lately I've been getting more requests to join in on a poly relationship where of course I would be the new addition. I don't know why I'm getting these but let's see who we have today.

OkCupid - RudeDude Finale?

Has it really been a month since I last updated all of you in regards to RudeDude? I mean, the last post was all about that coffee meet up and seeing a movie but I honestly can't believe it's been a month. I do apologize for keeping most of all of you in the dark but it wasn't intentional I promise! Things have just been busy to say the least but it's time to enlighten you with what's happening. So let's get to it, shall we?

Tinder - Minnie Said No

I can't even give a good reason for going on Tinder lately. I stated last week that they have a ploy of saying someone has liked me and are waiting for me to swipe back which I firmly believe at this point. Now it seems that I've coming across more and more profiles to share with you though. I'll have you know that this is all for you because you read my blog and deserve something funny. Last week we had characters in costume and it seems like that trend isn't going to die anytime soon. Let's get into it with poor Minnie.

Tinder - Barney is a Dinosaur

I've been swiping through Tinder a lot more lately and that's only because I keep getting a notification that someone has liked me and is waiting for me to swipe back. I'm starting to wonder if it's some sort of ploy to get me to use the app though because I swear I'm still swiping through guys that I've seen before and swiped left on. Not much changes it seems. There has to be a queue that it just has me continually swipe through no matter what. That or I'm super backed up due to using the app while traveling. Either way today I stumbled across Barney and it wasn't quite what I expected.

The Liebster Award

I've been nominated for the Liebster Award! So shoutout to Roar Dinosaur for the nomination. I appreciate it. I apologize for taking forever to get this posted. The Liebster Award is such a great way of getting to know each other, showing your appreciation for other bloggers, and sharing links. So why not read more to get to know a bit more about me? (:

OkCupid - Space Ostrich

In the world of dating people often try to put their best foot forward. That makes the most sense considering coming off as a jerk isn't something most people find desirable. At least I don't. Now there have been the handful of guys who start sending rude messages if I don't respond immediately but today we have someone totally different. Instead they decided coming off as a douche first and foremost was the best way to go about things.

Tinder - All Day Every Day

I really just don't understand people sometimes. I mean, to each their own when it comes to personal preferences and things like that. Some people post things that are such an automatic turnoff I don't know why they would do it. Then again they might just be not so great people or I just have very high standards. I think it might be a combination of both this time rather than just the latter. Either way let's talk about Daniel and see if "yadig" what he has going on.

1 Year Blog Anniversary Giveaway

It seems so strange to say that this blog is one year old but it is the truth. Who would have thought that it's been a whole year since I started doing this? Maybe the fact that I was gone traveling a lot last summer makes it seem less than a year, which makes sense since I wasn't posting. Either way to celebrate I thought it'd be fun to do both a little roundup and have a giveaway! I mean, what better thing is there to do?

OkCupid - RudeDude Movie & Coffee

I'm behind on updating you all on RudeDude and I apologize for that. I'm going to blame life in general and the fact that I sometimes forget to sit down and type out a date because it's been ages since one actually happened more than once from the dating apps. In this post I'll make up for the past two dates that we've had together so strap in. It's going to be filled with a bit of a movie review for A Cure For Wellness as well as some stupid funny stuff that literally had me crying tears from laughing so hard. Sounds like a blast doesn't it?

OkCupid - Not For Innocent Ears

Talking about how online dating is going is always fun just because some people have fun stories that they are willing to share about their experiences so far. I don't mind talking about mine as you can tell from this blog but it's always fun to hear things from a guy's perspective. They deal with the fact that they are the ones constantly sending messages hoping to get a response back. However this next guy had a story that wasn't for innocent ears.

Tinder - No Intelligence Required

If I'm being honest I haven't been on Tinder as much lately but only because I keep getting guys who are only in town for the weekend or just looking for a hookup while they wait for their flight home. That just isn't me or what I'm using the app for. However when I did decide to brave it and see what the app would give me I got a slightly confusing profile. Just remember, there is no intelligence required which will help make this somehow more easy to understand.

February Ipsy Glam Bag

I haven't done anything beauty related in ages but I figure now is my chance to change that! I have been getting the Ipsy Glam Bags for about a year now but never thought of actually sharing and reviewing what I got in my bag. I'm not the best with makeup and all the variety of products that there are out there but I'm always willing to try new things. I saw someone else post their bag and I had different items from them (save for the bag) so I thought why not go for it and do a review? So let's get to it.

OkCupid - RudeDude Hiking Date

Well everyone Rick aka RudeDude took me up on my offer to go hiking. I swear right after I posted about the Thai lunch date he texted me saying he'd like to take me up on the offer. I had suggested going to Red Rock in my previous post and he decided that was something he was interested in doing. I don't know if I was necessarily surprised or not but I was game for going on a hike so I wasn't about to retract my offer. The perfect hike was all ready in my mind thanks to the recent weather Vegas has been getting so now I had a great reason to go. Let's get on to the hiking date shall we?

Tinder - A Package Deal

It's become common to come across someone with an interesting set of pictures. Now when I say interesting I mean something different of course. I've had the nude photos, the partially nude photos, and even that guy with the kettle cooked dick but those are somewhat expected at this point sadly. However today on Tinder I came across a guy with a set of photos I can't even properly describe because they aren't nude photos but they aren't quite what you would expect on a profile for a dating app. Usually you want to put your best foot forward but this guy decided to do something different.

OkCupid - RudeDude Meetup

Well for those of you who follow me on Twitter you know that I was recently contacted by a guy with the username RudeDude and the conversation was short but he ended up asking if I wanted to meet up. I left it up to a twitter poll of either "Yes do it for the story!" or "No he's obviously rude" and that actually ended in a tie. I was a bit surprised by that but it gave me a good laugh. So then the final vote was left up to my best friend and she voted for me to meet up with him. Let's go over what happened at my Thai food lunch date with RudeDude.

OkCupid - Date Night 240616274?

I often have messages on my OkCupid account that has users who have disabled their account. I don't know why this is considering they will have only messaged me within the past hour. Either I was so terrifying that they had to delete their account immediately after sending me a message or they just gave up after messaging me because they knew I wouldn't respond. Either way today I got a different kind of message from a disabled account that made me wonder if they were even real.

OkCupid - Christian Bale

You've all seen how well pick up lines work for me, meaning that they don't work at all. Especially when they're just really weird or really lame. I don't often get jokes though but today I did! I was actually a bit confused by it at first because I didn't know what the point of the question was. It didn't occur to me that it was a joke, which is pretty sad because that goes to show how many lame messages I've received on the dating apps. So today I have a fun joke to share with all of you.

Tinder - A Little Cocky Tho?

Most guys are not at all unique or creative when it comes to telling a girl that they are pretty. It's ok, I know it would be much more confusing to have a guy try and give an analogy of what he can compare my beauty to so it's best if he doesn't. It saves us both time and trouble. I can only imagine how many guys google a line about beauty and just cut and paste it into the chat box. If the only thing the guy does have to tell me is that I'm attractive I'm not quite sure what to make of it, which you'll see in the following chat. Let's get to it.

OkCupid - Prom at 31?

So I've received my fair share of strange messages on the dating apps so far as I'm sure most all of you are away by now. The other day I received a strange request though involving prom. Mind you, I've been out of high school and attended college so to hear about prom was a bit confusing. I didn't even go to the prom when I was in high school so why would I not want to go to prom when I'm not? It gets better though because the guy who asked me is not even high school age and is instead 31. Think I'm joking? I wish I was.

Travel Tuesday - Elephant Sanctuary Chiang Mai

One of the biggest attractions in Thailand besides seeing all the Buddha's and visiting the temples has to be riding elephants. That's come under fire with different elephants lashing out and killing tourists along with the discovery that a lot of them are mistreated in order to keep up with the tourist demand for riding them. So instead of riding elephants I decided to visit an elephant sanctuary. This is where elephants are taken when they've been rescued from their former poor conditions. Instead of riding you get to experience bathing an elephant, feeding them, and just interacting with them. Let's get on to it shall we?

Tinder - Me and My Girlfriend

Please know that I would have titled this post My Girlfriend and I but of course I am cutting and pasting this straight from the profile of a boy named Drey. I don't want to take away from his message or anything because obviously he is the most important one in this relationship. He puts himself first so you best not forget it. That's right, he is all ready establishing his dominance on an online dating app where people are just swiping back and forth. Let's get into it shall we?

Tinder - Kettle Cooked Dicks?

I've said it before and I'll say it again, dick pics are not attractive. Never have been and never will be. Trust me. If anyone wants to see a dick they can find just the one they are looking for with a simple google image search. It's truly not that hard. I don't think I've ever met anyone who has said that they were immediately turned on by a guy who had a dick pic on his profile on any app. So let's just not have those at all to make everyone's lives a little more enjoyable. Today I have for all you readers a guy who apparently thinks he has a new approach to showing off his body, but isn't actually doing himself any favors.
