I've blocked someone because he kept swearing at me after I told him I didn't like it.
Did they mean it jokingly at first? I guess when you told them you didn't like it, then it doesn't matter how they said it since it's still disrespectful.

I can’t decide if they think we’re not very intelligent, or if they think they’re doing a better job of covering their tracks than they actually are.

Patiently waiting for Lois Griffin or Lisa Simpson to enter the chat 💅🏼
they always post something controversial as well. Bore off I’m here for the audacity of men thank you.

I don't mind swearing, unless it's referring to someone as a "witch". I cannot abide anyone who's not female using it - gives me the ick.

I usually follow along with this thread as I deleted my dating apps so had nothing to contribute but just gonna jump in now :)

I dunno if it's the men in my area (judging by the other posts, it's not!) but the amount of timewasters was something else. I didn't really have time to spend hours swiping through the apps and messaging (didn't want to either) but felt every single interaction I had to be a certain level of interesting, chill, breezy, not too serious but also intriguing... you know? I never felt like I was being myself with these guys and was being judged at every opportunity. Even the guys who seemed promising turned out to be bleeping weird, like calling me up at 2am after having a drink or tracking me down on social media.

So I've deleted the apps in the hope of meeting someone organically or through a friend now that things are opening up again but who knows. I think the last year has made me realise I'm actually doing fine by myself and I really value my own space and having time for hobbies and friends without dragging a man along.


Lol yes Thunderfook -> Professor Farnsworth -> Roger Smith. Exact same style of writing!
Welcome! 2am calls ruined it after a date with an ex-coworker once - he sent me a voicenote of him drunkenly playing guitar and singing me a song...

@LaurieLaurie Thunderfook flounced off because you (quite rightly) asked them to stop screen shotting every single Tinder profile they came across and posting them here.
Farnsworth appeared days after the flounce, “new to the thread” but everything other than profile picture and name was identical. Spikey communication style, vehement hatred of men with children / men who want children / children in general, any experience anyone has had, they’ve always had the exact opposite. “Men invite me to watch football with them” was a personal highlight 🥱🙄

He said he wants to calm down with the drinking because it's a waste of money and makes him down. So on a Sunday when he said he was going on a sesh I suggested maybe waiting until Tuesday when the football was on. He replied "duck off you bleep" so I said I don't appreciate being sworn at. His response was to tell me to stop being a bleeping sensitive fan.

ETA this was via voice note so I could hear tone etc

I hadn’t even noticed the different names and just thought it was the same person changing profile pic 😂

After lurking and dipping in these threads occasionally I actually do have a date to report on this evening but I’m struggling to motivate myself to get ready properly, I’m so lazy on weeknights since working from home and everything! It’s someone I’ve been very on/off with for ages so I think not having the new date butterflies is also making me lazy. I’ll end up being in a mad rush to get ready and go now, always the way..!

Oh god there's nothing worse. A friend was sent a voice note by a guy singing and playing guitar along to "I still haven't found what I'm looking for" by U2 after she put a pin in things. Just no 🤢

I noticed this, always playing devil's advocate when it wasn't necessary and had an answer for everything 🤔

Ooh.. Maybe that’s what set them off, I was only concerned someone who knew the men in the screenshots would see them on here, some had kids in them.
The football one.. They were trying to make the poster feel bad.

See, I liked Thunderfook but steered clear of interaction with Professor (I’m being polite)

Not only is that really disrespectful, it's also really aggressive. How can anyone think that's an acceptable way to speak to someone in the first place?!

Bloody hell I must have my eyes closed. I never notice different profiles having the same writing style 😂
It was obvious that when thunderfook disappeared, professor farnsworth appeared and then they disappeared and roger smith appeared. I don’t know why they felt the need to ditch thunderfook though 😂 anyway I’ll go back to being a lurker now 😂

Yeah I think there was deep hatred of children in general. The gist was if you had children your life is deadbeat. The one where her womb was precious and she called someone a bleep for wanting someone who wants children in the future.

omg yes the profiles was how it went downhill. It was a constant thing.

I deffo started something off here 😂😂😂😂
