Happy Birthday, Grindr! Here's This Week's Fails
Can you believe Grindr just turned 15 years old? We can't even remember a time when Grindr wasn't around. How did we hook up? In person? Lordy! LOL, flashback to early ads when it was available on a Blackberry. Sigh, a lot of you don't even know what a Blackberry is. P.S. We know the gays like to lie about their age (and other things) on Grindr, is the company really 15 or are they older?

Here are some of the funny fails we found this week:
We have to start with the current gay quote that is going around. Thanks to a recent episode of Drag Race, when Plane Jane listened to a touching story from a cast member, she responded with the now infamous quote that starts with, "Mama, kudos for saying that." Have you seen the meme extravaganza making fun of that? Well, Grindr was not immune:
Ok, so we know it's passe to say "no femmes," and we shouldn't be femme-shaming anyone. You can literally just block or say no thank you. In any case, the recipient literally says they identify as femme and the sender seems confused that being femme doesn't come with a Party City wig.
LOL, chivalry is not dead! We know that most hookups will pull out the most janky, rag of a towel to throw under a bottom. But the good Target stuff? Oh, baby, that is LOVE! Honestly though, maybe a real sign of chivalry would be to actually let us in the bed and not just on top.
We know that Lady Gaga is a queen for the gays, but we don't think she'd be on Grindr. Or would she? In any case, we love the little callback for "Bad Romance." It makes us laugh and we might indeed send a pic of our phatty booty. We have fantasies that Gaga's next album would be based on our booty. Humor is always sexy.
We are not sure what to think of this one. We know that WiFi in the hospital can be a little spotty, but this person seems to have made it to Grindr. Gunshot wound be damned, this person is looking! And not just looking, but looking for a long-term relationship. We are gonna be honest, we would also be on the lookout at the hospital for a rich doctor.
Do you have any Grindr fails you want to share?
