When you're actually using the app instead of having the compression artifacts of being screenshot several times, it's not as bad.
I don't care if you're watching it in 32k on Odin's personal account, white on yellow is NEVER acceptable for ANYTHING.
Something I was dearly hoping wouldn't find its way over here from Reddit: screenshots of posts which erase the posters' identity for no good reason.
Giving proper credit for content is cool, kids.
Sounds like my son. He hates sharing his music no matter what it is. Same with videos. It's so stupid. Just tell me and move on why is the 21 pilots song you're listening to need to be top secret.
It's really weird to me. As a teen I loved telling the world what I was listening because it was obviously the best thing on earth, man.
Music and entertainment tastes in general tend to be quite personal, so it's probably a bit of insecurity. He'll get over it, just explain that it's not a test, you're just chatting. Maybe share some of yours first or something
Oh I told him that and I do share mine but they hate it. Imagine being so old they think Thrid Eye Blind, Match Box Twenty, and Goo Goo Dolls is old music.
Haven't even got to classic rock like AC/DC, Aerosmith etc. I don't know what to do.
What you need to do? Strip him of his inheritance until he broadens his music taste.
while you're at it. What's your mother's maiden name?
i'm confused, what is this meant to be riffing on
Password recovery security questions
My mother’s maiden name is pagbdjsGajwHGaj8283Hwnwmfueuhs, why?
Btw, this is unironically how you should treat security-related “questions”. It’s just another password to break. And you wouldn’t use these things as a regular password.
Maybe something like MyMother’sMaidenName?RandomNumber172839it’sNoneOfYourBusiness. Maybe.
Ah, so people are still trying online dating. Curious.
Online dating is very much the norm. I have no idea how I’d meet a new partner without it (if I was in the market for one).
I'd rather stay single than go into that online game again. It's become too stupid for me. 10 years ago was probably the sweet spot.
As I sit here happy and secure in my own relationship, I’m inclined to say I’d rather be single than online date. But if I actually found myself single before I’m even 40 I suspect I’d change my mind eventually - that’s a lot of life left to go through alone. And the only way I’d be likely to meet someone would be online, so needs must.
I am single before 40 and I'm done. If someone falls in my lap I'm not going to complain, but other than that it's just gonna be me, myself, and I fighting the good fight of life to the death.
“Anyway, how’s your day going?” “Why would I tell a stranger how my days going?”
What are you strangers all talking around here anyway, hm!? I swear it’s everywhere on this site.
Someone's insecure about his Shakira collection.
Seriously though, I'm guessing this guy either doesn't like music at all (I've known a few and they act like this) or got made fun of a lot for his music tastes in high school. It's a shame this guy is probably a walking insecurity.
Which is a great reason to unmatch him and move on.
Yeah this is like the people who would answer “radio” back in the day, when asked what their favourite music was ._.
If someone does not take the least amount of effort to answer a simple question like that one .... then he doesn't care about you in the slightest.
"But its a generic question!"
Two words: common courtesy.
People (guys usually) also answer like this when they are trying to tell you exactly what you want to hear so that you'll sleep with them. They feel like if they give any wrong answer early on, they've lost their chance. It's a very manipulative mindset. He was like a deer in the headlights, not knowing if any answer he gave would be the right answer since he doesn't know her at all yet. So he stalls, hoping she'll drop it.
Or he might just be an idiot.
Either way, drop them and move on to somebody who will be real with you.
In other words, playing games, i.e trying to "tick her funne bone" so he gets someone else to play instead of himself. But what most of those guys fail to acknowledge is that "tickling her funne bone" takes time -- it's not a "free pussy pass" of any sort that you "say it", and she goes "WHOOAAA fuck me mister! Fuck me right NOW!". That is not "acting tough" or smart, but acting like a douche.
It was Coldplay.
