Tinder is an app that aims to take the pain out of dating. However, a site called TinderLines claims to collect the best conversations from the app. They make for solemn reading. My engineer friend George is not having a good week. His dating life is taking on the same flavor as Google's Franz Kafka doodle. The more women that offer him their huffy, puffy Jennifer Lopez, the more he turns into a cockroach and delves into the Web's darker crevices for succor. He has happened upon the flaming box known as Tinder. Should you be unfamiliar with this app, it allows you to scroll through faces of your target gender that happen to be in your vicinity. Should any face you like happen to like your face, a match is made. It might not be heavenly, but it might at least help your evening pass in an earthy manner. Some might still need a self-help book, once a face-match is made -- perhaps something along the lines of "What Do You Say After You Say 'Yowza!'" You still need dialogue -- the thing colloquially called a "pick-up line." Well, a site called TinderLines has appeared to guide your path. This site claims to have collected some of the best (in many senses) Tinder conversations and displayed them for all to see. Naturally, just as with AutoCorrect sites, there is no guarantee that these are real. But even if they're not, they feel so very real. For example: "Hullo, my name is Turner. I consider myself a cat person, have three kids with two different women, and am recently divorced and I'm just getting back into the dating game." Not exactly Match.com, is it? How about this: Guy to girl: "Ay what are you doin lil mama." Girl responds (incredibly): "Jus chillen, you?" Guy: "You ever seent (sic) interracial porn? Silence. Guy: "How did this not get a response?" Somehow, the interactions that, remember, are already based on mutual attraction offer a difficult view of the pains of dating. Here's Sean: "Hey you seem fun to talk to we should meet up to get a pizza and f***." Stunningly, this receives no reply. So he tries again: "I guess you're not a fan of pizza."

My engineer friend George is not having a good week.


His dating life is taking on the same flavor as Google's Franz Kafka doodle.


The more women that offer him their huffy, puffy Jennifer Lopez, the more he turns into a cockroach and delves into the Web's darker crevices for succor.


He has happened upon the flaming box known as Tinder. Should you be unfamiliar with this app, it allows you to scroll through faces of your target gender that happen to be in your vicinity.


Should any face you like happen to like your face, a match is made. It might not be heavenly, but it might at least help your evening pass in an earthy manner.


Some might still need a self-help book, once a face-match is made -- perhaps something along the lines of "What Do You Say After You Say 'Yowza!'" You still need dialogue -- the thing colloquially called a "pick-up line."
