Grindr Fails: Post-Gym Musk, Anniversaries, And Old Pictures

Have you heard the news? It’s time for Grindr Fails! This is where I sort through some really hilarious screenshots of Grindr conversations and discuss them with you! This week is yet another crazy one! We’ve got an awkward chat about a certain someone’s post-gym body odor! And the gays are so bad at commitment, we’re celebrating 8-week anniversaries! And last but not least, we are addressing the decades-old profile photo phenomenon that is sweeping the internet! You know there’s never a dull moment on these hook-up apps with these thirsty gays. As one of them myself, I can confirm. Enjoy!

This is something I see far too often. Why is it that people think it’s okay to have pictures that are so old? You’re clearly not the same person anymore! And it’s obvious that you think you looked better back then or you would have a recent picture! But then, the person you’re sending these pictures to is going to know it’s an old picture when you finally meet up. So are these people just hoping the other person will be too shy to say anything? At least this guy admitted the picture was old! The worst is when the picture has the date on the bottom like it was taken with a disposable camera and just scanned into a computer. Gorg, we can see that picture was taken in 1995! And we can see the Twin Towers in the background!

Are we appropriating straight culture with this?! I will explain what I mean. Pretty much this person in the blue chat is celebrating a two-month anniversary with his partner. But he says in ten months it’ll be a year! Girl, just say two months! You’re already the kind of gay who celebrates that sort of thing, so just own it! Maybe two months is a long time for him, I’m not here to judge. But I am judging! It reminds me of when straight people talk about their children’s ages by saying their baby is 34 months old. Ma’am, your baby is two! Calm down.

This one really hits home for me. And I have several complaints about this exchange. We’ll start from the top. Who I’m assuming the guy in the yellow chat? It seems that these two fellows have met up before, and the guy in the yellow came from the gym. And the man in the blue apparently asked to Febreze him! The man in the yellow then complained that it wasn’t Axe or body spray. He definitely seems like the kind of guy who thinks Axe body spray is a substitute for a shower. Well, clearly it wasn’t that bad if the other guy is asking to meet up again!

That's all for this week! Come back next week to see what sort of clownery we'll get into next!
