Guy's New 'Netflix and Chill' Variation Has Seemingly Cracked the Code to Online Dating


A guy is claiming to have cracked the dating code with his new opening line for when he gets matches on dating apps.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/Tinder subreddit by Redditor u/Throwawayanalyst96, who posted screenshots of their recent Tinder success.

The screenshots show his opening line, which deviates from the 'mainstream' phrase of 'Netflix and Chill' and instead offers his dates a chance to 'Disney+ and Thrust.' This has, evidently, been met with some solid success as he has managed to get a few match's socials and phone numbers. 

Commenters of the thread responded with praise, and several commenters were impressed with the success u/Throwawayanalyst96 had been finding. Others were more skeptical and postulated that some of the accounts were either bots or catfish. 

It's interesting how the modern streaming landscape has spawned so many variations of the euphemism. Way back in the early days of Tinder we had but the one option.

One commenter replied with a list of the many variations that have been spawned:
 

"this is kinda unrelated but Netflix and Chill doesn't rhyme, but every single parody of it does

Disney+ and Thrust

HBO and Blow

Hulu and woohoo

IMAX and Climax

Amazon Prime and Sexy Time

Blockbuster and Cockthruster

why"

‘Quit Lying’ : Funniest Foolish Idiots Who Obviously Don’t Know the Rules of the Internet


AI is taking over the world… well, not yet, but it will. We wanted to begin this article with a bold statement for no reason, so you are welcome to ignore it and move on to our actual point — people love internet clout, and they'll do just about anything for it. Great examples are the ice bucket challenge, the cinnamon challenge, and the famous Tide Pod challenge. Yes, people actually stuffed laundry detergent into their mouths. So now that we've established that there is something very, very wrong with the internet culture nowadays, let's move on to our next point — the internet is such an easy place to lie on.

 

You can say anything, and people will believe it. Well, unless someone spots the BS and calls you out on it… in which case, you're screwed. Scroll down and have a look at some of the funniest ways people failed on the internet. Way to ruin it for yourself… And while we're on the subject of fails, check out these creative ones where people kinda outdid themselves.

'Go Away Karen' : 16 Coworker Memes That Define A Toxic Workplace


2022 is officially more or less over, and it's been really stressful, trying to meet all the deadlines and expectations that were thrown at us (some of them last minute). Our coworkers may or may not have made life a little harder than it should be. We all have at least one Karen in the office, who kind of ruins the vibe. Maybe more, if you're especially unlucky. If you work from home, that Karen may show up in your emails on a daily basis. It could drive anybody mad.

 

We don't know why some people wake up and choose v**lence. But as Gandhi said, 'Be the change that you wish to see in the world'. Just kidding, go troll 'em! Better yet, send them these memes. They may or may not get the joke, but who cares? You'll know. As for our New Years' resolution… well, it's more of a New Year's wish, to be honest. We hope Karen gets fired. A special thanks in advance to the Universe.

'I don't pay you to sit in your car': Entitled Karen boss refuses to pay employee for waiting time after she was late


Bosses are always a pain when you're late, but when they're late, it's totally fine! That's obviously a belief that this entitled Karen boss subscribes to, given that when she was over half an hour late to work the day after Christmas, she refused to pay her employee who had been waiting outside in their car since the office was locked. 

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit by u/Raenoke, and as frustrating as this story is, it's certainly not surprising. We all know that as soon as the Holidays are over, horrible bosses remove their fake smiles from their horrible faces and go back to being, well, horrible. There's an extra level of irony going on here, given that the place of work in this instance is a law firm, and what this boss is attempting to do is certifiably illegal. We'll see what happens!
