This swing and a miss should be lesson 1 of ‘How Not to Do Tinder’

Poke Staff. Updated September 29th, 2022

A Redditor named u/StraightDonkey9 shared this screenshot of what we can only describe as his swing and a miss on Tinder. He opened badly and things went rapidly downhill.

He gave it the title ‘You miss 100% of the shots that you take.‘ but the consensus was that some shots deserve to miss.

“nice thighs”…🤦🏽‍♀️

Usually I think people who say “Google it” when asked about something on their profile are rude, but when you open with “nice thighs” I think it’s warranted.

Sometimes I think the competition is steep between men. Then I see things like this and know I’m doing just fine.

I’m convinced guys are out there sending stupid messages just for the meaningless karma.

The stuff that passes as wit for people amazes me, sometimes.

Would have unmatched you after the first message.

Hey bro, try “Hi how’s it going?” or something not related to her body.

Give the water a minute to boil before you throw the pasta in.
