back from college out east

"i'm kind of a nomad"

i always wanted to date a woman who lived in a tent

Oh sorry, yeah, I guess "improv" is the preferred terminology although I'm not even sure what the differences are among improv, stand-up, and sketch comedy (please do not take this as a request to have them explained to me).

xp lol

actual thing said to me on a date: "it wasn't like a tent, it was more like a yurt"

I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY, at least you'd get the opportunity to use the word "yurt" which is the funniest word ever invented and so fun to say.

she taught yoga fyi

how did she fit all the students in the yurt

Yoga in a yurt, it's too much, stop this giggle spasm immediately.

loooooooool

I mean I'm into yurts as low-impact, low-cost housing but also c'mon.

I'm into yurts

worst surfing class ever

"i'm kind of a nomad" would be about 800 times more acceptable than "i'm kind of a gypsy"

'my people follow the buffalo'

"i'm kind of a nomad" = has at least read some deleuze

Nhex strangely otm about improv vs standup.

caek, GOOD improv is the foundation of nearly all the best comedy in North America in the last 50+ years. Standup is largely a source of bad sitcoms.

All this talk of yoga and yurts has given me yogurt cravings

There's a terrible crossover marketing opportunity in there somewhere.

I can't

wouldn't mind seeing people provide keywords from my profile that instantly turned them off, although I'm not sure how you'd gather that data.

its and immediate turn-off for me when anyone who self-identifies as a "photographer" only has photos that are bad/cellphone selfies etc

right, but north america could make good comedy without a mandatory improv-based apprenticeship.

and false dichotomy: i obviously hide and block standups too.

xp "frequently annoying"
"community-building"
"cigarettes"
"potato chips"
"patriarchy"

Although the hottest guy I've yet been on a date with said he wrote me BECAUSE of the feminist content, so that's nice.

"i'm not like other girls"

Oh I just remembered, I got this gem of a message the other day, unbidden:

"i am guessing you grew up in the states, you are interesting but that might be the deal breaker"

lol oh man that's the kind of thing my ex would say, long diatribes about how terrible American dating culture and American women are.

there's a fix for that

while we're airing grievances:

SARCASM IS NOT A VIRTUE NOR IS IT A WAY OF LIFE ITS JUST A LINGUISTIC CONDITION STFU

long diatribes about how terrible American dating culture and American women are.

American dating culture is pretty terrible, though, isn't it? I mean, this thread.

idk any other culture's dating culture to compare. i'd imagine they're all kind of shitty?

You've got a point there.

if you hate dating American women, then... maybe you just hate women and American women don't like that

You can't just hate the process of dating, obviously.

maybe you just hate women and American women don't like that

on the nose

can't we just let these poor misogynists misoge

patenting misogecoin now

it's not just that there are misogynists on okc... actually the medium is the misoge

Nice

Always makes me sad to think about how I might have blocked/hid a potential soulmate on OKC because she had put "Little Miss Sunshine" in her favorite movies

that's a great movie

*blocks*

I briefly dated someone who had a Harry Potter poster and liked TGI Fridays

Were you both 15?

I'm not on OKCupid, and the movie's not out here yet, but I used a phone app to suggest to a girl that we see Grand Budapest Hotel in May, and she said yes
