‘You’ve chosen 0 out of 3 options’

Fecking right I have. Maybe I’ll choose indigenous rights and watch the likes roll in lol.

The only one I could genuinely discuss being pro is voter rights. But then some idiots shouldn’t be voting lol. Oh yeah, and indigenous rights. The rest I’d be lying

 

[Stirlingsays]

No I know. Now I can talk and talk so I can do it. But feck me I agree.

Back when all you had to sort out was if you both thought that Chris Evans was a t*** or not (no surprises, of course he is) or whether Oasis was better than Blur.

 

[ex hibitionist]

One app has a section ‘My causes and communities’.

‘Immigrant rights’ gets listed. The suicidal empathy is strong in these ones.

Then there’s also human rights. Wtf? Which ones?

Then there’s Black Lives Matter. White women actually put this.

I might create one. Two tier policing and Prime Minister lol.

I reckon neurodiversity was in your top 3, no make that top 1, and you've got me all wrong, union jack knickers are a favourite of mine, depending on the material, nylon's a bit itchy

Wasn't 'neurodiversity' a dancing troupe that was big some years ago?

Or was that just 'diversity'?....in truth from what I remember of them they were talented.

Just frigging annoying.

I must admit, I would kind of be interested in seeing a really bad dancing troupe, neurodivergent or not.....there's something fascinating about performative entertainment professions being really poorly done.

I don't mean student plays or stuff not being presented as top quality....I think it's cool that people do amateur stuff and put it out there, amateur dramatics and stuff, whatever the hobby is....No one is expecting professionalism....it's in the name.

But when you're expected to be amongst the elites in your country at something....it's a bit different.
Like that Australian breakdancer at the Olympics:...selected via a qualification system.....That's deserves mirth, I can't feel bad about being amused....the mockery might have hurt her ego (which seemed unrealistically big) but she sure provided much unintended joy.

But that wasn't break-dancing....more like some cringey interpretative dance.

The kangaroo hopping 😂

Everyone’s a winner these days. Even the totally s***.

I would have thought bad jester rights would be yours. You are Mr Maypole from Rentaghost

Hopefully I’ve made you aware that being intelligent or being a liberal are not the same thing, maybe even aware that being liberal doesn’t make you intelligent, which lots of these berks believe and probably start these beliefs when they’re younger to belong in the so called intelligent social groups. The date this week did agree with me that a lot of posh tw@ts are fecking stupid.

Another opinion she had which I had to refrain from destroying was… when she said something about the criticism of Muslims not integrating she then went onto talk about people in the countryside not integrating. Excuse me, wtf? How do you EXPECT them to do that, not that they should be expected.

Lives in a nice part of London, met in a nice part of London, grew up in what she describes as a s*** hole and couldn’t wait to leave. Oh yeah, it is a s*** hole and full of Muslims. But to her Muslims are no issue at all.

‘’London is great because it’s so cosmopolitan.’’ Well yeah that can be a positive, but I suggested it’s a bit sad that everybody in this pub is a graduate office professional and Londoners or normal people have fecked off. She agreed with this. Whether she meant it or not I don’t know. She’s from a humble background so I’m not sure.

Croydon town is an absolute toilet full of excrement regardless of this geezer filming in it. I gave up defending the place a while ago. It doesn’t deserve it. I now agree with anybody it’s terrible.

 

[Badger11]

Back to dating apps. I don't care what questions they ask there is always the option to ignore.

I gave up because they don't filter out my responses which is kinda the point. If I was a vegan I would not expect to be matched with somebody who love Steak night.

Until the idiots who run these apps understand that they are just another customer survey that ignores the answers.

people always assume that their 'ideal partner', out there, is similar to themselves.....
- politics
- music
- Looks & height

- food
- education levels
- hobbies/ past times etc.

in my experience, that strategy is doomed to failure. Opposites often attract.

 

[PalazioVecchio]

if you both thought that Chris Evans was a t*** or not

it really makes you wonder who is running these Media companies. That fellas like him and jonathon Ross get so much airtime.

anyway, forget about Dating Apps. A total waste of time. Its like trying to buy a good secondhand car and only interacting with those predatory dealer types. You know the ones, no garage, no showroom, no address, 'selling the car on behalf of a friend', a dozen old bangers on their internet advert, meet you on a random street corner with a car that smells of paint & rubber sealant, cash only, etc etc.........

Expecting a good car deal from them ? its the same as expecting a Dating Website to get you true lifelong love from a 24 year old Scarlett Johansson, with no baggage, and not mad.

only loonies and losers are available on Dating apps. Most of them have a hobby of surfing a dating site all day and wallowing in the attention of hopeful losers.

Lads, your frustrations on those websites is merely the incarnation of our messed up society in The West. 200 men chasing after every 100 young women. Much of this due to male immigration, and certain other women being totally 'off limits', and serial Alpha's like footballers who have a rake of kids by 2, 3 or 5 women.

Lads, You wouldn't have needed any Dating app if you lived in 1946 Berlin.

I do know of people who have found love,friendship and marriage through Dating sites.
Back in the mists of time, an acquaintance who was far from aesthetic, must have approached a large number of ladies but was unsuccessful. Rejections did not deter him and he continued down this well-trodden path with vim and vigour.
Perhaps if Dating sites had been available he might have experienced some successes.
Much later in life I did know a gentleman,perhaps in his 60s, who used such a site and had dalliances despite the fact that he was not easy on the eye.

Well she’s been had a relationship with a builder and some other non office professionals shall we say. I said you’re after a real man and not a drip. She smirked, so yes. She also said many of the men on dating apps in London are wet. So she’s a liberal but doesn’t fancy the majority of liberal men, therefore you’re potentially right.

Not true. Not what I and women have found. There is a wide variety of people, especially in London and the South East. Unfortunately most of the women are liberal with their illogical ideology.

Agreed. There is nothing wrong in using a dating app to widen your social circle. It's the app that is the problem more than the people who use it. If they properly filtered I wouldn't have been looking at the crazies.

It's called the scatter gun approach Willo. One in a hundred so to speak.

 

[Willo]

I can only imagine what the Willo chat up line was.

'ding dong, so what brings such an adorable figure of divine exquisite femininity into my world of expectant ardour'.......'Ten of my hard earned pounds enough?'

🤣 🤣 🤣 👍

Wish you had suggested this back in my days of concupiscence.It would have increased my chances of conjugal coupling.🤣👍

I really do not believe he was that successful.
Rejection was swift and constant.
I gave him top marks for perseverance, determination and pluck.

A good point. Whilst there are perhaps certain oil and water scenarios e.g. very right wing and very left wing, I think similar interests don't have to be a must have for a couple to match successfully.

My wife doesn't have the slightest interest in football ( apart from wanting Palace to win just because Ill be in a good mood), likewise I don't have the slightest interest in my wife's abiding passion, gardening, but we happily allow each other to pursue their interests even if they are mutually exclusive.

Even temperamentally we diverge, she being a glass half full sort of person and I being a glass half empty type. Also I'd describe myself as an introvert and she an extrovert.

However, we share a set of core values in respect of both our personal life and view of the outside world. And we have a deep respect for one another that transcends any small gripes we may have with each other.

So, I wouldn't don't make too much of a potential date's advertised love of long country walks, quiet nights in, trips to the theatre, and passion for baking and yoga.
