Swiping through Tinder can often be a supremely thankless and tedious activity. Everyone's looking for their "partner in crime," and everyone likes pizza and craft beer. Every now and then, however, a bio comes along that speaks volumes. A bio that showcases humor and intellect. If you're lucky the photos will be stimulating, too. This is a collection of the bios we like - may we all stumble upon them in our hunt for love.

You know what they say: if one relationship doesn't work out then don't fret because there's plenty of fish in the sea! Either way, dating apps are always really frustrating, but at least they can offer us some comedic relief! Check out Fail Blog and eBaum's World for more Tinder madness!
Red flags are one thing. But to make someone straight up walk out of a date is another. Sh*t's gotta be serious. Redditor u/PorridgeBeforeBed took to the r/AskMen subreddit to ask members to share their ejection-worthy date stories. We'll give you some spoilers: a lot of people are addicted to their phones, a lot of people are looking for free meals, and others don't seem to understand that a date is between two people. The stories are disappointing, but not seriously surprising. So strap in, get your reading glasses, and learn what not to do on a romantic evening.
A Leeds man went viral a few days ago after sharing a major dating disappointment on Twitter. Harry (@hazposting on Twitter) tweeted a screen shot of an exchange with a Rachel, his Tinder date from the night prior. Harry sweetly expressed interest in seeing Rachel again, and in response he received a screen grab of his own text, punctuated with a hearty "LMAO." It's abundantly clear the screenshot was meant for a friend, and wow. Ouch.
Rachel quickly apologized for the gaffe, but the damage was done. After sharing his woes to Twitter, Harry found an overwhelming amount of support. People tweeted their sympathies, their confusion (not everyone realized Rachel had intended to mock him to a friend), and their feelings that Rachels are not to be trusted. While we can't speak to the integrity of a world of Rachels, it's clear that this one doesn't deserve the attention of Harry - who consistently updated the viral post with funny, self-deprecating, and niche reaction memes. If he hasn't actually deleted Tinder, we wish him a million quality matches.
Country singer Dolly Parton started a serious meme on Tuesday when she shared a collage of four photos of herself. Each panel represented a social networking site: LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and Tinder. The post inspired many other celebrities to create their own version of the photo, which is meant to show the differences in how we represent ourselves on the aforementioned sites. It's since been called the Dolly Parton Challenge, and is now being used to create everything from animal memes to satirical cartoons. We've put together our favorites, but you can catch more over at Ebaum's World.
Ever have it out with someone (either seriously or in good fun) and think of the perfect comeback hours later when you're in the shower? Happens to us all the time. These clever souls didn't have to suffer like that - they came up with some seriously smart sh*t at just the right moment. Salute.
Let's face it: dating these days can seriously suck. With Tinder, Bumble, and OkCupid, it seems nobody wants to commit and everybody is just waiting for the next best thing. People are way more open to straying, and a lot of morally unsound flirting seems to be going down in DMS. Were things easier before the days of the internet? Maybe in some ways. These depressing comicsharken to that era in style, but reflect the woes of modern lovers. They might be sobering, but they definitely make us feel seen.
Twitter is an absolute cesspool of political drama, porn, and general dumbassery. But sometimes people who are a hell of a lot funnier than we are show their comic mettle in the form of a tweet. We've put together some of these funny tidbits in case you need a reminder that Twitter can still be entertaining and not just horrible.
Online dating might be wildly unsuccessful and extremely shallow, but it's nothing short of completely entertaining. Whether you're on the app for ego boosts or looking for the love of your life, you're bound to see some hilarious profiles and have some weird and amusing exchanges. Here are some people who really know how to work with their wits.
Trolling people on Tinderis nothing new. There are fake accounts in the form of catfish, inanimate objects, and there are even people who have made it their life's goal to troll older predatory men. While we applaud calling out creeps, we prefer the kind of trolling that leaves us laughing or with a smile on our face. This fake account for the 69 year old "Bill the Handyman" definitely falls into that category. (Funny enough the fake profile actually originated via a challenge posted by a Facebook page called GoofyDads.) We just wish we had more of his antics to scroll through.
