As part of my online marketing initiative, I've made a Grindr profile (Grrber's not exactly thrilled). For those of you who don't know, it's like Adam4Adam/Manhunt on your iPhone, and it uses your GPS to tell you how far away other guys are from you. You can chat, send more pictures, send your exact location, etc. And basically all my friends are on it (including those with boyfriends).
In addition to exposure for the blog, it's a whole new source of material! It's like people are just begging to be made fun of looked at critically for consideration in making your own profile.
Nothing says, "I live with my pack rat mother" like... whatever the hell is on the shelf! And props to dude on the throwback pose, but was he old enough to remember Kid 'N Play?
This profile may have a slim demographic, but I found myself within those bounds. I laughed my ass off when I saw it! Luckily I wasn't at the office. I think.
This next profile isn't exactly funny. I'm always wary of guys above 30 who self-identify as straight and have nice bodies (but they exist... allegedly). But it's good to see that a male/female couple can work after she knows he's into dudes.
I truly believe that a person can be bisexual without being confused, and it irks me to no end when someone tries to tell someone else that their feelings/attractions aren't valid.
Wanna know the quickest way to end a conversation with me?
LOLCat-speak. I'll admit, one or two LOLCat pictures have made me laugh out loud, but I really can't deal with people's making LOLCats out of themselves.
And of which fictional character does this profile remind you?
If I wasn't going to hell before... But really, did he have to lie down to the side like that?!
This next profile seems to imply what the text doesn't say.
Let's see: he's making a nasty-smell face; there are white tiles in the background; and he's holding a men's room sign. Yeah, I can't figure it out either.
Perhaps he should be a little less subtle as to what it is he's looking for.
Oh, and she definitely shows her face in this picture. Granted, the background isn't exactly visible, so it could be a phone picture in Ikea, but that's not nearly as much fun! I gotta respect the guy for going for what he likes, but did he really have to use the edit "cmdmp" when he's licking a toilet?!
